The Peak Demand Page allows you to view how using energy from the utility grid will affect the customer's energy bill during the different seasons. Use the Max Demand Setting slider to control how many kW the customer will use from the utility grid for each season.
To the left, you'll see a Demand Charge, which is an estimation of how much the utility company will charge the customer for the kW selected on the Max Demand Setting slider. This charge will then be combined with any additional flat fees associated with the utility company and added to the estimated monthly cost of solar to get a New Bill + Solar amount. Net Savings (Current Bill amount - New Bill + Solar amount) will be listed on the very left.
The estimated values listed on this page come from our Utility database. If you have additional questions or concerns about what is being calculated, please refer to THIS article or contact our utility research team at utilityresearch@gosolo.io.
Note: If a battery is selected, this pay may display a "Demand Charges Offset by Battery" in place of the Demand Settings. When using a battery, we recommend using the Battery Optimization Hub page to model battery saving calculations.
