Solar panels on-site energy dedicated

How can on-site solar PV & energy storage improve sustainability?

To achieve sustainability goals while meeting the increasing electricity demands of electrification, organizations are pairing on-site solar PV generation with on-site energy storage. These systems, which are considered as “behind-the-meter” (BTM) systems, allow facilities to maximize the benefits of on-site renewable generation.

What is Onsite Energy?

Onsite energy refers to electric and thermal energy generation and storage technologies that are physically located at a facility and provide alternative energy services directly to the site.

What are the top energy technologies for on-site generation?

The top energy technologies leading the way when it comes to on-site generation include: Rooftop solar remains one of the most accessible and cost-effective ways to generate on-site power, particularly for facilities with high daytime energy usage.

Is rooftop solar a good option for a building?

Rooftop solar remains one of the most accessible and cost-effective ways to generate on-site power, particularly for facilities with high daytime energy usage. These systems can typically offset a large portion of energy consumption in a building and are relatively simple to install.

What is on-site power technology?

Forget about long-distance transmission lines with their energy losses, power surcharges, and other miscellaneous fees. This approach focuses on generating power close to the point of consumption, which is not only more efficient, but also more environmentally friendly. A Closer Look at On-Site Power Technology

What are the benefits of an on-site solar PV system?

For the scenario represented in the graph, an on-site solar PV system allows the facility to reduce the amount of electricity drawn from the grid during the middle of the day. Increasing the amount of solar PV production on-site can provide additional cost and emission reductions and resiliency benefits for facilities.
