What is electricity arbitrage and how is it earned?

Arbitration — it is buying electricity at times when it is cheaper and using or selling it when the price rises. Most often, this is implemented through energy storage (USE), which allows you to store electricity and use it at the right moment.

Electricity market (RDN)
The price of electricity is formed hourly. This creates an opportunity for optimization — use cheap energy and avoid expensive.

Energy accumulator (USE)
Allows you to store electricity during periods of low prices and use it during peak tariffs.

Management System (EMS)
Automates the entire process: analyzes prices, predicts profitable periods and makes decisions about charging or discharging.

Profit is formed due to the difference between the price of electricity in different periods. For example:

• • the system charges the drive at night, when electricity is cheaper
• • uses or sells it during the day when the price is higher

This process is repeated every day, creating a stable additional income or savings for the business.

The market changes hourly, and manually tracking prices, forecasting and making decisions — almost impossible. That is why the key role is played by the automation system, which:

• • analyzes the market in real time
• • takes into account the behavior of the object
• • automatically manages the drive

Electricity arbitrage allows businesses to move from passive consumption to active energy management. This means:

• • reduction of electricity costs
• • additional income
• • greater energy independence

Arbitrage of electricity — it is a new model of working with energy, where it becomes not only an expense, but also an asset. In combination with drives and control systems, this opens up new opportunities for business — save and earn at the same time.
