HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE NEXT BIG THING - STORAGE
UNDERSTAND ENERGY USAGE AND COSTS
Analyse Billing Information and
Charges:
• Half hourly Usage and Charges
• Non Domestic Customers will
move to HH billing April 2017
(P272)
• Transparency of Costs
COST SAVING / REVENUE GENERATION
With a battery storage system:
Generate own Renewable Energy or buy
electricity from the grid when it is cheap –
then use or store in the battery
REVENUE GENERATION
COST SAVING
COST SAVING
