Battery savings calculator questions
How does the battery savings estimator work?
For grid-connected sites, it estimates demand-charge savings and the value of shifting solar or off-peak electricity into peak periods. For mining and remote sites, it estimates diesel displaced and multiplies the litres by your delivered fuel price. Results are indicative ranges based on simplified assumptions, then checked against your real data in a study.
Does the savings estimator calculate battery cost or payback?
No. This tool estimates annual energy or fuel savings. It does not include equipment prices, installation, connection costs or ongoing operating costs. Payback needs a site-specific project cost and feasibility study. The separate CAPEX and ROI calculator on our homepage lets you explore an illustrative investment scenario.
What information do I need to estimate battery savings?
For a grid-connected site, use your peak demand, monthly demand charge, peak and off-peak electricity rates, and solar size. For mining, use annual diesel consumption, delivered fuel price, generator details and solar size. For a remote community, use annual diesel consumption, delivered fuel price and average daily electricity use.
