Battery Energy Storage System design and installation — peak shaving, demand charge reduction, backup power, and hybrid solar + storage solutions for industry.
Overview
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are transforming how industrial and commercial consumers manage their electricity costs and reliability. By storing cheap off-peak power and discharging during peak tariff periods, a BESS can dramatically reduce maximum demand charges — often the largest component of an industrial electricity bill. Daakshyaani designs, supplies, and commissions BESS solutions tailored to each client's load profile, tariff structure, and reliability requirements — standalone or integrated with existing solar plants.
Why Daakshyaani
Maximum demand charges can account for 30–40% of an industrial electricity bill. A well-sized BESS can cut this by shaving peak drawl — delivering ROI within 4–6 years in many cases.
We specify Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) chemistry — the safest, most thermally stable lithium battery technology — with cycle lives of 4,000+ cycles and no thermal runaway risk.
BESS pairs naturally with rooftop or ground-mounted solar — storing daytime generation for evening peak use, maximising self-consumption and reducing grid dependence.
We analyse 12 months of electricity bills and load data before sizing — ensuring the BESS is optimised for your actual demand pattern, not a generic model.
From feasibility and equipment specification to civil works, electrical integration, BMS commissioning, and DISCOM coordination — we own the complete scope.
Every BESS we install is connected to a monitoring platform — track state-of-charge, cycling behaviour, savings accrued, and system health from any device.

Industrial tariffs bill two things separately — energy consumed (kWh) and maximum demand (kVA/kW), the highest draw recorded in a billing cycle. Peak shaving uses stored battery power to cover short spikes in demand so the recorded maximum stays lower, which directly reduces the demand charge component of the bill — a different mechanism from simply consuming less energy overall.
Under ToD tariff structures, DISCOMs charge different per-unit rates depending on the time of day — typically higher during evening peak hours and lower off-peak or during solar hours. A BESS sized around a site's actual ToD schedule can charge during cheap hours and discharge during expensive ones, which is a separate saving from demand charge reduction and depends on the specific ToD slabs in that consumer's tariff category.

Backup power is about continuity during an outage, sized and configured differently since it needs to cover critical loads for a defined runtime regardless of tariff timing. The same battery hardware can often do both, but the sizing and control logic for each job are not the same, which is why load profile analysis before sizing matters.
Industries
Most industrial installations see payback in 4–6 years, driven primarily by demand charge reduction — maximum demand charges typically make up 30–40% of an industrial electricity bill.
LFP cells handle 4,000+ charge cycles with no thermal runaway risk, making them the safer, longer-life choice for stationary industrial storage compared to other lithium chemistries.
Yes — we analyse 12 months of actual electricity bills and load data before sizing a system, rather than quoting off a generic assumption.
Yes, we deploy both standalone BESS (peak shaving, backup) and hybrid solar+BESS systems, with BMS, PCS scope, and remote monitoring included either way.
