Introduction. Owners of commercial buildings are commonly charged for electric power based upon energy consumption (i.e. kW h) and peak demand mand is defined as the energy consumed during a demand interval and peak demand is the maximum demand over a specified billing period, e.g. a month.
Energy storage can smooth out or firm wind- and solar-farm output; that is, it can reduce the variability of power produced at a given moment. The incremental price for firming wind power can be as low as two to three cents per kilowatt-hour. Solar-power firming generally costs as much as ten cents per kilowatt-hour, because solar farms
