The grid is full. But your connection can do more than you think.
With peak shaving, you get more out of your existing grid connection — without waiting for the grid operator.
What is peak shaving?
Peak shaving literally means flattening peaks. Your power consumption is not the same all day. In the morning, all the machines turn on, everyone charges their car, the kitchen is running at full tilt — and your connection is maxed out.
With peak shaving, you use a battery that charges during quiet moments (or via solar panels) and steps in during peak moments. The result: you stay within your contracted connection capacity, but effectively have more capacity.
No grid upgrade needed. No waiting list. No years of hassle.
What does it deliver?
Direct cost savings — Many energy contracts charge a higher rate for peak consumption. By flattening peaks, you pay less.
No penalties — If you structurally exceed your connection capacity, you risk penalties from the grid operator. Peak shaving prevents that.
Expand without waiting — Want charging stations, a heat pump, or extra production capacity? With peak shaving, that is often possible within your current connection.
Smarter combination — Peak shaving works best in combination with solar panels and smart charging. What you generate during the day, you store. What you need in the evening, you use from the battery.
How does it work in practice?
The system automatically learns your consumption pattern. After a few days, it knows when the peaks occur and starts proactively charging the battery. You won't notice a thing — except on your energy bill.
Mithra installs the complete system: battery storage, inverters, sensors, and software. Everything connected to your dashboard. You can see in real time how much you save and how your capacity is being used.
Start with an energy scan. We measure your consumption pattern, calculate your savings potential, and show which storage solution fits your situation.
