Peak Shaving: what it is and how it reduces peaks in electricity demand

LED bulbs on an electricity demand graph illustrating energy consumption management and the peak shaving strategy.

Peak shaving is an energy management strategy that reduces peaks in electricity demand using BESS systems, distributed generation and smart control platforms. Find out how it works, its main applications and the benefits it brings to industries, buildings and renewable energy plants.

EPC: What is Engineering, Procurement and Construction in the renewable energy sector?

Engineers supervising the construction of a photovoltaic plant under an EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) contract.

EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) is the most widely used contractual model for large-scale renewable energy projects. Find out what it involves, what its phases are, the responsibilities of the EPC contractor, and why this model is key to the financing and implementation of solar power stations, wind farms and energy storage systems.

Grid formation: what it is and why it is transforming modern electricity systems
