AI-powered Peak Shaving: From Cost Control to Competitive Advantage

A handful or sometimes just one power peaks can ruin your monthly earnings. 


In most markets, your grid fees are driven not by your average consumption - but by a few or one extreme demand spikes. Just one “bad hour” can cost thousands, making peak management one of the most critical - and most misunderstood - levers in EV charging profitability. 


In Part 4 of the Optimise Masterclass Series, we take a deep, practical dive into our new AI-powered Peak Shaving - a core business optimisation tool for Charge Point Operators. 

 
You’ll go beyond the basics and understand how advanced peak shaving allows you to keep your average power below critical limits while still delivering maximum charging performance within billing intervals. We’ll unpack why this is fundamentally different from traditional peak capping (or “static load management”) - and why most CPOs today are leaving significant money on the table by only “fixing” peaks instead of optimising them. 
 
What makes this session unmissable 
We will bring theory to life with real-world cases and data across multiple European markets - including Germany, Sweden, Finland, and Iceland, France and the Netherlands - highlighting how different tariff structures, billing windows (15 vs 60 minutes), and demand charges radically impact your strategy. 

 
Expect concrete insights such as: 

 

From “Fixing Peaks” to Full Optimisation 
Most operators today apply static rules: they cap power, set limits, and move on. 
But true leaders are shifting to continuous optimisation: 

 

 

Unlock the next level: BESS + Peak Shaving 
We’ll also show how Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) take peak shaving to the next level: 

 

 

What you’ll walk away with 

 

 

Peak shaving is no longer just about avoiding costs - it’s about unlocking scale, profitability, and competitive advantage in a constrained grid environment. 
If you’re serious about improving your business case, this session is essential.
