A Distributed Energy Management System should,
. . . significantly increase the economic value of energy storage.

!) Back-up power mode:
. . . Automatically, isolates from the grid,
. . . in the event of a loss of grid power,
. . . then delivers power to the site,
. . . with no interruption in service;

2) PV self-consumption mode:
. . . Automatically, manages home energy,
. . . to maximize the value of solar installation,
. . . while maintaining grid connection for reliability and consumer savings;

3) Peak time shifting mode:
. . . Automatically, store all unused energy for a later time,
. . . to better match the end user’s specific needs.

Deutsche Bank says,
. . . most of the solar installed in developing countries, with no grids will be,
. . . distributed solar.
. . . Total module costs of leading Chinese solar companies have decreased from around
. . . . . . $1.31 a watt in 2011, to around
. . . . . . $0.50/W in 2014.
. . . That represents a fall of around
. . . . . . 60% in just 3 years, and total costs could fall another
. . . . . . 30-40% over the next few years.

What if utilities begin to offer competitive,
. . . distributed solar installations?
