Zero-CAPEX BESS + PV
for an industrial site.

An illustrative development analysis of industrial BESS + PV: modelled electricity savings, use of site capacity and proposed allocation of funding, technology and market responsibilities. It is not a commissioned-project report.

The work

Anonymised case
study for an
energy-intensive site.

CurvatureEnergy analysed a year of interval consumption data, estimated the existing PV profile and tested BESS/PV configurations. The download uses anonymised, materially adjusted European inputs to explain a proposed zero-CAPEX project-vehicle structure. No completed construction, approved connection or realised savings are claimed.

What it illustrates

Three outcomes
modelled.

The analysis produces a configuration and proposed commercial structure; implementation and host benefits remain subject to engineering, approvals and definitive agreements.

— 01

Electricity savings

Modelled peak shaving and PV self-consumption, with gross savings distinguished from service fees and the host's retained share.

— 02

Use of site capacity

Proposed use of available roof, land and confirmed connection capacity, subject to technical and permitting review.

— 03

Allocation of responsibilities

The proposed project vehicle funds and operates the system. Host obligations, availability-linked payments and accounting treatment must be confirmed in the contract.

Methodology

How the analysis
was built.

The method starts with interval load data and an estimated PV series, then tests configurations and commercial terms. Figures are illustrative and anonymised; they do not identify a particular Swiss site or prove operational performance.

  • 01 One year of interval consumption data analysed
  • 02 Existing PV profile reconstructed
  • 03 BESS and PV configurations tested
  • 04 Zero-CAPEX project-vehicle structure proposed
