One BESS, Four benefits.
AXON sizes a behind-the-meter BESS to stack diesel replacement, peak shaving, time-of-day arbitrage and solar augmentation — together, that can be ₹10–30/kWh of combined savings.
Retire the diesel drag.
AXON sizes the BESS to carry your facility load through the maximum realistic outage on 95% of days — calibrated from 12 months of DG-log data. A solar-charged battery delivers that power at ₹4–5/kWh against diesel's ₹25–35/kWh all-in cost.
You may retain the DG for emergencies but will rarely use them. This pillar typically uses 25–40% of BESS energy. If you are in a zero-power-cut zone, you are likely paying too much for grid electricity — and the other three pillars bridge the gap.
Cut the demand charge that never sleeps.
Using high-frequency consumption data, AXON builds a load-exceedance distribution and shaves the top 5–10% of peak events with the battery. That lets you reduce your contracted demand (MDI) to the 90–95th percentile of actual load — usually about 25–30% less than your contract demand.
Why it matters: fixed demand charges of ₹300–700+/kVA are 20–40% of a typical C&I bill — paid every month regardless of usage. Shaving the peak permanently lowers that line. This pillar uses just 5–10% of BESS energy but delivers outsized value.
Buy cheap. Use at peak.
The BESS charges from cheap solar or off-peak grid and discharges during high-tariff morning and evening peak slots — capturing the DISCOM's time-of-day spread after keeping a reserve buffer for outages.
Peak/off-peak differentials of ₹3–8/kWh are a structural arbitrage that grows as tariffs rise. This is the largest energy flow in the stack — 55–70% of BESS throughput — and the pillar that makes a BESS viable in zero-power-cut locations.
Stop wasting the solar you already paid for.
If policy changes have stranded your solar, AXON stores it in the BESS instead of exporting it for near-zero returns. AXON can augment an existing plant to generate extra energy for the battery, or install new rooftop solar where you have space.
Solar is the cheapest charging source for a BESS — especially when it would otherwise be wasted. This pillar improves the economics of all three others by lowering the effective charging cost across the stack.
How the stack fits together
One system. Four streams.
| Pillar | What it does | Net saving | Energy share |
|---|---|---|---|
| Diesel Replacement | Discharges during outages instead of running DG sets. | ₹20–30/kWh | 25–40% |
| Peak Shaving | Cuts contracted demand (MDI) and fixed monthly charges. | ₹40–80/kWh eq. | 5–10% |
| ToD Arbitrage | Discharges at peak, recharges from solar / off-peak grid. | ₹3–5/kWh net | 55–70% |
| Solar Augmentation | Stores stranded or new solar to charge the battery cheaply. | ₹4–5/kWh in | Charging |
