Electricity Arbitrage and Peak Shaving

Our AI-driven optimisation adapts to your municipality’s Time-of-Use tariff structure, shifting consumption away from expensive peak periods and into off-peak windows. The result is a measurable reduction in your electricity bill without changing how your facility operates.

The same intelligent dispatch also targets your maximum demand (kW) reading. By drawing battery power instead of grid power during predicted peak-demand events, the system shaves your monthly demand charges, a separate line item on your bill that’s billed regardless of total consumption.

When load shedding is announced, the system automatically adjusts charge and discharge schedules to ensure sufficient reserves before each outage window.

Solar & Load Forecasting

Optimisation requires prediction. Soluno forecasts both sides of your energy equation:

• Solar yield forecasting: how much your panels will generate tomorrow, based on satellite weather data and panel configuration
• Load forecasting: how much your facility will consume, based on historical patterns and operational schedules

By knowing what’s coming, the system plans ahead, pre-charging batteries before an expensive peak period, or holding reserves when a cloudy afternoon is expected.

Automated Load Management

In a hospitality environment, water heating alone can account for a significant share of peak electricity demand. Soluno’s automation schedules these loads to run during off-peak hours or when surplus solar is available, then curtails them during expensive peak windows.

• Hot water management: intelligent scheduling of water heating systems, timed to exploit off-peak tariffs and excess solar
• Peak shaving: automatic reduction of non-essential loads during peak periods to lower demand charges
• Demand management: coordination between battery dispatch, solar generation, and controllable loads
• Load shedding coordination: non-critical loads curtailed automatically to preserve battery reserves

Fully automated. Adjusts in real time as tariffs, solar conditions, load-shedding schedules, and facility demand change throughout the day.

Proactive Fault Detection

Your diagnostics dashboard might show green. Your electricity bill tells a different story.

Soluno detects gradual battery degradation, cell imbalance across battery banks, inverter faults that reduce output without triggering alarms, and solar production drops that indicate panel soiling or shading changes. We catch these issues early, before they appear on your electricity bill.
