PEAK SHAVING & LOAD SHIFTING

More charging capacity. Lower energy costs.

Voltic EMS works with battery energy storage to keep your site within its grid limit and shift charging to cheaper time windows - automatically.

The result: lower energy costs, better use of solar, and more charging capacity without a grid upgrade.

PEAK SHAVING

More charging power

Deploy more charging power on the same grid connection, without applying for a grid capacity upgrade.

Peak shaving diagram

What it is

Voltic Edge uses on-site battery energy storage system to absorb excess load during peak charging demand, keeping the site within its contracted grid limit.

When demand drops, batteries recharge, ready for the next peak.

When to use it

Your grid connection can't support the charging power your site needs
Adding more chargers would require a costly and time-consuming grid upgrade
EV charging and building load together regularly push your site to its electrical limit

How it works

Threshold Set

You define a peak power limit - for example, 150 kW from the grid connection

Battery Kicks In

When charging demand approaches that limit, the battery discharges to cover the difference

Auto Recovery

Once demand drops, the battery recharges automatically, ready for the next spike

Limit Guaranteed

The grid never sees a peak above your defined threshold - your site operates within its contracted capacity, without a grid upgrade

LOAD SHIFTING

Charge when electricity is cheap. Deliver when vehicles need it.

Instead of drawing from the grid at peak rates, Voltic Edge uses stored or solar energy to charge vehicles when electricity costs least.

What it is

Load shifting lets your system decide when to draw energy from the grid, not just how much. By combining battery storage with vehicle charging schedules, Voltic Edge delivers the right amount of energy at the right time, automatically pulling from the grid when rates are low and relying on stored energy when they're not.

The result: every vehicle charged on time, at the lowest possible energy cost.

When to use it

Your vehicles charge overnight or on a predictable schedule with known departure times
You want to reduce what you draw from the grid during expensive peak tariff periods
You have or will have on-site solar or battery storage that isn't being used to its full potential

How it works

Demand Forecast

Voltic Edge reads charging needs from connected vehicles target state of charge, departure times, and session priorities

Optimal Schedule Built

The system plans when to deliver energy: drawing from the grid during cheap off-peak windows, battery storage during expensive periods, solar when available

Charging Delivered on Time

Every vehicle gets the energy it needs by departure without overpaying for the kWh used to get there

Cost Reduced, Automatically

The same charging outcome, at a lower energy cost and no manual intervention, no scheduling by hand
