Overview

The Storage-in-Switch workflow models battery storage behavior and uses the resulting post-storage profiles in a Savings Analysis.

The steps that you will perform in this tutorial are:

  1. Create a Storage-in-Switch Account to set up the account used throughout the workflow.
  2. Confirm the Utility and Electricity Tariff to define the customer's utility and rate plan.
  3. Baseline Electricity Usage to create the electricity usage profile.
  4. Model Solar Production to set up the solar production profile.
  5. Generate Post-Storage Profiles to simulate the battery storage system and create adjusted profiles for grid imports, solar exports, and battery interactions.
  6. Generate a Storage-in-Switch Savings Analysis to run a Savings Analysis using the storage profiles.
