BESS dispatch strategies explained: peak shaving, energy shifting and arbitrage
Adding storage to a PV project starts with one key decision: what should the battery achieve? In this 45‑minute webinar, we will break down peak shaving, energy shifting, and arbitrage, and explain how each strategy impacts BESS sizing, power rating, architecture, and dispatch. Join us and learn how to model charge and discharge cycles, set operational constraints, and configure dispatch rules early in the design process using RatedPower.
