Savings in Action: Lessons from Observed and Modeled Residential Solar Plus Storage Systems

Abstract: The electric grid is rapidly evolving as small-scale, demand-side resources play increasingly important roles in grid operations and decarbonization. Maximizing the potential of demand-side resources involves incentivizing electricity customers to use those resources in ways that benefit the broader electric grid. These incentives depend largely on the electricity cost savings that customers can realize by adopting demand-side resources. Determining these potential cost savings is a complex task. Cost savings … Show more

“…Before addressing those two questions, it is important to provide context on the project. Mandalay Homes is headquartered in the Southwest and specializes in the construction of highperformance and energy-efficient homes (O'Shaughnessy et al, 2022a). In 2017, Mandalay Homes partnered with sonnen to introduce a new, 2,900-home community near Prescott, Arizona, that would include solar and battery storage systems as a standard offering (Sonnen, 2017).…”

“…The proliferation of these types of programs could generate more value opportunities for solar and storage systems, thereby reducing the return-on-investment timeline and potentially encouraging more solar-plus-storage adoption. The Mandalay Homes community could operate as a virtual power plant, but currently the homes operate individually to maximize savings to each homeowner (O'Shaughnessy et al 2022a). This is in part because a rate structure has not been designed that would incentivize the operation of the homes as a fleet.…”
