Shift your load to cheaper hours
Your facility runs the same equipment, draws the same power, but time-of-use rates mean you pay 2–4x more for every kilowatt-hour consumed during on-peak windows.
1
Torus tracks your rate schedule
Torus analyzes your rate schedule and identifies on-peak and off-peak windows. For a facility on a typical summer schedule, that might mean on-peak rates from 3 pm to 8 pm and off-peak rates the rest of the day.
2
Stored energy discharges when rates are highest
When on-peak pricing begins, the system discharges stored energy to reduce your grid draw. Your facility still consumes the same total power — but a portion now comes from stored energy purchased at off-peak rates, not from the grid at premium prices.
3
The system recharges during off-peak hours
Once rates drop, Torus charges its battery storage to full capacity at the lowest available rate. The cycle repeats every day: charge cheap, discharge expensive. Over a billing period, the accumulated rate difference compounds into measurable savings.
4
Torus adapts as rate schedules shift
Time-of-use windows change seasonally. Torus monitors your rate schedule and recalibrates charge and discharge timing automatically — your costs stay optimized year-round without manual reconfiguration.
