SMA Energy System Business

Manage and distribute
solar energy

Optimally coordinate all energy flows

Here is how it works: SMA Data Manager M monitors and analyzes all the system components and energy flows 24/7. On this basis, you can implement specific measures designed to optimize energy usage – manually or, in the near future, automatically. Replace old devices that consume too much power. Avoid load peaks by starting various operational machines at different times.

Application example
Managing SMA Energy Systems Business optimally
and avoiding load peaks

  • 04:30

    It is early in the morning and it is all go in the industrial bakery, where the ovens have to be fired up. The PV system is not yet providing sufficient power. This means that a large amount of grid power has to be purchased in addition. A load peak is imminent – and that can become expensive.

  • 04:30

    The solution: SMA Energy Systems for Business slightly stagger the times at which the ovens are started. Less power has to be purchased in one go and load peaks can be avoided.

  • 09:00

    Late in the morning, the PV system provides more solar power than is needed for operations. The surplus power is temporarily stored in the battery-storage systems for later use, rather than being fed into the grid. After all, your SMA Energy System for Business knows that you will need a lot of power again in the evening.

  • 18:30

    It is all go once again in the evening. Lots of appliances – cooling systems, ventilation, lights and so on – are in operation and another load peak is imminent because the PV system is no longer providing sufficient power. But the battery-storage systems are fully charged and so can be used for powering the appliances. No power – or, at the very least, less power – has to be purchased. After all, it is still very expensive at this time.

  • 23:00

    Late in the evening, the battery-storage systems are empty and the PV system cannot supply any more solar power either. But fortunately, the power tariffs are affordable – something that your SMA Energy System for Business took into account at the planning stage. This means that your appliances can procure low-cost power from the utility grid.
