Simply Solar Academy Batteries and Energy Storage Load Shifting is when you’re able to store your excess energy and sell it back to PG&E during particular times of the day when your solar energy system isn’t generating as much power.

Key Points:

  1. Load-shifting is the ability to store your battery power and sell it back to PG&E during certain times of the day.
  2. The purpose of load shifting is to take your power generation, which peaks at about 1 or 2 pm, and shift it to selling the power back to PG&E from your battery between 4-9pm when power is not being generated as heavily.
  3. A battery can ensure your home is resilient from outages.
