In his latest article, technical journalist Frank Urbansky, who joined us at our customer demonstration day in Markkleeberg, explains why just a few hours each year can determine a company's annual energy costs.

The key factor is the demand charge. Utilities do not only bill for the total amount of electricity consumed. They also charge based on the highest 15-minute power demand recorded during the billing period. A single peak load event can therefore influence electricity costs for the entire year.
