What a battery would have earned
BEACH 41ST STREET-BEACH CHANNEL DRIVE in Queens paid $255,948 in demand charges over its billed year. A 18040 kW, two-hour battery — sized to shave a quarter of that billed peak — would have earned $5,422,199 a year from demand-charge savings, day-ahead price arbitrage, and demand-response payments.
