Across the commercial and industrial sites Ampaura has modelled, payback lands between 4.5 and 7.6 years. Where a site sits in that range depends on how much of the bill is demand charges, how peaky the load is, whether there is solar, and what the site qualifies for in incentives. Payback is a model, not a promise. Anyone who quotes a period without seeing your interval data is guessing, so we model the return from your own half-hours, on your actual tariff, and state every assumption where you can check it.
A commercial battery is not one saving, it is a stack of them, and the mix is different on every site. That is exactly why the model has to run on your data.
Illustrative mix. The size of each bar on your site comes out of the model, not off this page.
This is the standard we hold our own proposals to. If you are comparing quotes, it is a reasonable checklist to hold everyone else's to as well.
The proposal models a fixed operating strategy. Once AI Mode takes over it keeps re-learning your site, adding at least 20% more savings, with real-world examples reaching as high as 46%. Payback in practice tends to beat payback on paper.
How AI Mode backs that number →Send twelve months of interval data and your latest bill. You get back a payback model built on your own half-hours, with the value stack broken out and every assumption stated. If the numbers are not there, we tell you that too.
