How the Sunnew home energy storage system works
Seamless communication across all energy systems
Use cloud-based software to connect solar energy to a building's current energy system, strategically turning certain systems on and off when needed (e.g. heating, lighting) and drawing power from the solar system at the most appropriate times to reduce costs and the overhead of both types of power requirements.
Optimize building loads
Sunnew home energy storage systems actively and dynamically interact with building RTUs, solar systems, batteries, lighting, and more to reduce peak demand and time-of-use costs. Use each system only when deemed necessary by the building administrator and system software. All this is controlled via a user-friendly remote access control panel. Advanced machine learning
Sunnew home energy storage systems learn and adapt to how a building’s occupants use it, adapting to observed patterns and trends over time, with the goal of continually reducing energy consumption. Factors such as building utilization, solar energy production trends and weather patterns are also used to predict a building's future energy needs.

What is battery energy storage?
Battery storage systems work with solar panels (or other renewable energy sources, such as wind turbines) to store electricity generation for optimal use during peak times. These commercial batteries can be recharged and perform more advanced functions such as peaking and load shifting.
Peak shaving involves reducing energy consumption during peak times of the day (or even year), while load shifting spreads electricity consumption from one time to another. Both are important ways to reduce utility bills, and can be accomplished using a battery storage system.
How battery energy storage works
Peak shaving and load shifting can be accomplished through a simple process. First, the batteries will be charged by collecting clean renewable energy from the sun, wind or other renewable energy sources. Advanced algorithms in the battery system then coordinate when to distribute energy to the building based on past usage history and other factors such as weather conditions or time of day. Finally, the energy stored in the battery is released when your device is using its highest energy
Key Benefits: Stores on-site power and reduces reliance on the grid
Excess energy generated by renewable energy systems, such as solar panels, can be stored in batteries and used later, reducing an organization's dependence on utility providers. This in turn can reduce your electricity bill.
Using batteries for disaster recovery
Batteries allow your organization to have backup power in the event of an emergency. If your power supply fails, batteries are the ideal solution to ensure temporary power. This is especially important for companies with larger server spaces or higher technology dependencies.
