NewHybrid control for C&I batteries: stop exporting at negative prices
Industries / Logistics and warehouses

Know what every hall, cold room and charger uses.

Warehouse parks run on electricity: cold rooms, lighting, HVAC, forklift and EV charging, and more and more rooftop PV. BOX2M meters every circuit without stopping operations, bills each tenant from real data, raises the alarm when a cold room drifts, and lets the site stop exporting when prices go below zero.

Challenges

Shared connections, cold chains, midday solar.

Many tenants, one connection

Tenants share the grid connection, the roof and the common areas, and each expects a fair bill.

Cold that can't fail

A cold room that drifts overnight, or a dock door left open, can cost a full load of stock.

Solar at midday, prices below zero

Rooftop PV exports most when day-ahead prices drop below zero, and every exported MWh then costs money.

New chargers, old connection

EV and forklift chargers add peaks the grid connection was never sized for.

Across the site

What BOX2M measures, stage by stage.

From the grid connection to the loading dock. Every stage feeds the same data model in the cloud.

1

Grid connection

kWh · kW · kvarh · PQ

Import, export and power quality at the main board or the MV/LV substation.

2

Rooftop PV and battery

kWh · kW · SoC

Production per inverter group and battery state of charge, with a second control path to the battery.

3

Cold rooms

kWh · °C · %RH

Temperature and humidity per room, compressor energy, alarms.

4

Halls and common areas

kWh · on/off

Lighting and HVAC per hall, switched manually or on a schedule.

5

EV and forklift charging

kWh · kW

Charging per circuit, shifted by playbook when prices go below zero.

6

Tenants

kWh · m³

Electricity and water per tenant unit, read automatically for re-billing.

KPIs

The numbers a warehouse park runs on.

Per m², per tenant, per cold room and per quarter-hour, updated every minute in the cloud and reported in PDF or CSV. The same data goes to your ERP, CAFM or invoicing over API.
