Big, bigger peak loads! Peak loads in the power grid and electrical systems are supposed to be avoided to keep the network, on which we all depend, stable and reliable. Anyone who doesn't adhere to this and exceeds their agreed base load 3-4 times a month may have to expect higher payments.
Peak load management
In general, you should avoid peak loads in your system not only for cost reasons, but also for the safety and longevity of your systems. A peak load always occurs when too many appliances are switched on or running simultaneously. For systems exceeding 200 kW/h, your energy supplier has specific contracts that precisely regulate the base load you are allowed to operate continuously to avoid overloading the grid. If you experience a peak load that exceeds your agreed base load of, for example, 200 kW/h three to four times a month for just 15 minutes, your energy supplier can and will not only move you into a higher tariff category, resulting in higher energy prices, but you could also be charged up to €100 per kWh for the kWh consumed during that short period. Furthermore, these peak loads are not planned by the energy supplier, and excessive load can cause the grid to experience a sudden voltage drop in certain areas, which would be disastrous for your system.
To prevent these scenarios, a sophisticated peak load management system, distributed across the entire system according to load, is necessary. Peak load management prevents all consumers and load carriers from connecting to the grid simultaneously, as the high inrush currents and initial consumption, for example, when heating up a wellness/sauna facility, motors, etc., repeatedly cause this problem. Staggered start-up is therefore essential, because once everything is up to temperature, the high initial currents and loads decrease significantly. With peak load management and appropriate sensors, it is also possible to monitor the loads and switch them during operation so that, despite higher consumption by individual systems, they never exceed their baseline consumption. Based on the configuration and time, the control system then automatically recognizes, using set parameters, the current energy flow, and the required energy, which system is allowed to consume more and which can or must be throttled back.
