Commercial battery storage for businesses
Commercial energy storage designed around your business
Commercial battery storage gives businesses greater control over when and how they use electricity. A correctly designed system can store surplus solar generation, reduce reliance on higher-cost grid electricity and help manage changing energy demands across a commercial site.
DW Energy designs and installs commercial energy storage systems around each business’s consumption profile, electrical infrastructure and operational requirements across Sussex and the South East.
What can commercial battery storage do for your business?
Battery storage should solve a defined commercial energy problem rather than simply add more equipment to a solar installation.
Depending on your electricity consumption, solar generation and tariff, a commercial battery storage system for a business can help to:
- Store surplus solar electricity for use later
- Reduce electricity imported during higher-cost periods
- Increase the amount of renewable energy used on site
- Manage periods of high electrical demand
- Support EV charging and wider site electrification
- Reduce reliance on the grid
Every commercial site operates differently. The value of a battery depends on when the business consumes electricity, how much solar electricity would otherwise be exported and what the system needs to achieve.

Does battery storage make commercial sense for your site?
Not every business with solar panels needs a battery.
Businesses that consume most of their solar electricity while it is being generated may already be achieving strong on-site usage without storage. Other sites may export significant amounts during the day but experience higher demand later, making commercial battery storage considerably more valuable.
DW Energy reviews electricity consumption, peak demand, existing or proposed solar generation, export limitations and electricity tariffs before recommending a system.
Where appropriate, we can compare proposals with and without battery storage, helping you understand the effect on project cost, expected savings and payback before making an investment decision.
See how we combined commercial solar and battery storage at Kelgray House, Crawley, helping the business become more than 70% self-sufficient.

Commercial solar and battery storage working together
Commercial battery storage is often most effective when designed as part of a combined solar and energy-management system.
Solar panels generate electricity during daylight hours. A battery can capture electricity that the business cannot use immediately and make it available later, when demand increases or solar generation falls.
Designing the solar and battery systems together allows DW Energy to assess:
- The site’s electricity load profile
- Proposed solar generation
- Expected surplus electricity
- Battery capacity and discharge rate
- Inverter and electrical infrastructure requirements
- Grid connection and export limitations
- Future EV charging or electrification plans
The result is a coordinated commercial energy system designed around how the site actually operates.

Designed around your electrical infrastructure
Commercial energy storage needs to integrate safely with the wider electrical infrastructure of the site.
DW Energy combines renewable-energy expertise with established electrical contracting capability. Our team can assess the battery alongside existing distribution equipment, solar PV, EV charging, operational loads and future electrical requirements.
A typical commercial battery project includes:
- Review of electricity usage and interval data
- Site survey and assessment of the existing electrical infrastructure
- Modelling of solar generation, storage capacity and expected usage
- System design and commercial proposal
- Electrical installation and commissioning
- Monitoring, maintenance and ongoing technical support

Commercial battery storage in practice
Supporting electric HGV charging at Shoreham Port
DW Energy installed two 80 kW EV chargers and a 200 kWh battery storage system to support overnight charging for Shoreham Port’s first electric HGVs.
The battery was integrated with the port’s solar generation, helping the site make greater use of renewable electricity while meeting a defined operational requirement.
The project demonstrates how commercial battery storage can form part of wider business energy infrastructure, combining solar generation, energy storage and fleet charging within one coordinated system.
