Home Energy Storage Application Scenarios
I. Core Application Scenarios
-
Economic Electricity Optimization
-
Peak/Off-peak Arbitrage: Charge during low-tariff periods (e.g., nighttime electricity or excess PV power) and discharge during high-tariff periods to reduce electricity costs 35.
-
Load Management: Mitigate grid stress by sharing instantaneous loads from high-power appliances (e.g., air conditioners, electric water heaters) 39.
-
Renewable Energy Utilization
-
PV Integration: Store surplus solar energy generated during daytime for nighttime or cloudy conditions, increasing PV self-consumption beyond 70% 36.
-
Energy Balancing: Smooth power output fluctuations caused by solar intermittency 38.
-
Emergency Backup Power
-
Grid Outage Protection: Automatically switch to battery power within 10ms to sustain critical loads (e.g., refrigeration, lighting) during outages 45.
-
Disaster Resilience: Provide off-grid support in extreme weather (e.g., typhoons, earthquakes), especially in unstable grid areas 35.
-
EV Charging Support
-
Home Charging Optimization: Utilize off-peak grid electricity or solar power for low-cost EV charging 36.
-
Grid Stress Mitigation: Prevent localized grid overload from simultaneous EV charging 3.
II. Technical Solutions
-
Modular Scalability
-
Stackable battery packs (5–30 kWh range) adapt to diverse household demands 16.
-
Independent pack management enables fault isolation without system shutdown 18.
-
Smart Energy Management
-
Energy Management Systems (EMS) autonomously coordinate PV, grid, and battery inputs across Economy/Backup/Off-grid modes 410.
-
Integration with smart home devices prioritizes low-power loads to enhance efficiency 310.
III. Emerging Opportunities & Challenges
-
New Applications: Mobile power for RVs/garden lighting 6; Off-grid microgrids in remote areas 311.
