When the consumption power is higher than
the over-peak consumption is unattainable with the solar
panel power, the battery power is used to supply the missing
consumption.

Red shows the installation's consumption, green the power
generated from solar panels, yellow the battery's state of
charge and blue the battery power (negative power indicates
that the battery is charging and positive power indicates that
it is discharging). The red line indicates the established power

The maximum generation power is PAC.
No, the two loads are joined as if they were just
