Target
Technical Implementation
Peak Shaving
  • Battery discharge: 17:00-21:00
  • HVAC optimization: ±1°C comfort band
  • Load shifting: 15-25% peak reduction
EV Night Charging
  • Charging window: 22:00-07:00
  • Smart scheduling: 80% completion by 06:00
  • Grid-friendly: 30-40% off-peak utilization
Pre-cooling Strategy
  • Pre-cool timing: 06:00-08:00
  • Target temperature: 22°C
  • Battery charging: 60-80% SOC
Risk Assessment & Mitigation
High Risk: Effect drops if participation <20% Mitigation: Minimum 30% participation required
Medium Risk: Battery degradation from frequent cycling Mitigation: SOC limits 20-90%, temperature monitoring
Low Risk: Comfort complaints during extreme weather Mitigation: Dynamic comfort band adjustment
