Energy
How many usable kWh the project needs and for how long.
PROFESSIONAL ENERGY STORAGE
Energy storage for projects that cannot be improvised
From self-consumption and backup to peak shaving and C&I BESS: define architecture, power, capacity, control and operation before finalising equipment.
Residential, C&I and large scaleAC or DC architecture by projectBOQ and technical validation
BEFORE CHOOSING A BRAND
A BESS is not a large battery. It is an energy system.
The same capacity can behave very differently depending on power, load curve, grid, inverters, EMS, critical loads and operating strategy. We therefore start with the problem and finish with a traceable BOQ.
Final selection is validated against current manufacturer documentation and real project data.
Power
How many kW it must deliver, absorb and sustain through peaks.
Integration
Grid, phases, transformer, existing PV and AC or DC architecture.
Operation
EMS, metering, schedules, export control, backup and critical loads.
WHAT IT CAN SOLVE
Storage changes how energy is operated
Each application needs different data and criteria; combining goals without priorities can change the entire architecture.
Maximise self-consumption
Store photovoltaic surplus and use it when the installation needs it.
Reduce peaks
Limit maximum demand and smooth loads that constrain power and infrastructure.
Backup and continuity
Separate critical loads, define autonomy and validate transfer and outage operation.
Optimise schedules
Charge and discharge according to tariffs, setpoints or a documented energy strategy.
EV charging and microgrid
Coordinate generation, storage and intensive loads without sizing by intuition.

Before quoting, we need to understand how the system must operate
A capacity figure is not enough. These inputs separate a commercial reference from a technically defensible proposal.

FROM DATA TO SYSTEM
A short process, with traceability
1 · Collect data
Consumption, production, grid, space, goals and constraints.
2 · Define architecture
Power, capacity, AC/DC, backup, metering and control.
3 · Validate BOQ
Main equipment, bases, caps, gateway, CT, combiner and accessories.
4 · Prepare proposal
Exact Odoo products, real availability and a clear commercial scope.

Frequently asked questions about solar storage
Brief answers for installers, engineering firms and professionals · Information updated on 13 August 2026.
Which applications can an energy storage system be sized for?
Storage can be designed to maximise self-consumption, reduce power peaks, shift consumption by time period, back up critical loads or support electric-vehicle charging. The right solution depends on the consumption profile, the existing installation and the operating objective.
What information does an installer need to request a study?
Provide consumption data, contracted power, the installation diagram, existing or planned photovoltaic generation, critical loads and the project objective. These data allow the system’s power, capacity and architecture to be assessed without assuming unverified compatibility.
Does Plug & Play Energy work directly with end customers?
Plug & Play Energy distributes equipment and provides support to professionals, installers and engineering firms. If you are an end customer, we can direct you to a professional installer who can assess and deliver your project.
