PEAK SHAVING – How it works

Predicting and reducing power peaks before they happen

For energy-intensive industries, power peaks are no longer just an operational challenge — they directly impact cost, grid contracts, and long-term competitiveness. Ferroman Peak Shaving is designed to help industrial plants manage these challenges automatically, without disrupting production.

A fully autonomous, data-driven system

Ferroman Peak Shaving is powered by machine learning and operates as a fully autonomous optimization layer. By continuously analyzing both historical and real-time consumption data, the system predicts upcoming power peaks before they occur.

When a potential peak is identified, the system automatically:

  • Communicates directly with large electricity consumers

  • Evaluates whether load can be temporarily reduced

  • Acts proactively before grid contract limits are exceeded

All actions are executed automatically — without manual intervention from operators.

Continuous learning for stable operations

Through online training, the system continuously adapts to your plant’s specific consumption patterns. As production conditions evolve, the optimization evolves with them, ensuring long-term performance without constant reconfiguration.

The result

Implementing Peak Shaving can help industrial operations achieve:

  • Lower grid contract levels

  • Avoidance of peak tariffs

  • Stable and predictable production

Ferroman Peak Shaving enables smarter energy usage while maintaining operational reliability — a key step toward a more electrified and cost-efficient process industry.
