Source-grid-load-storage coordinates generation, grid, demand and storage. A system view beats a single-point view when deciding whether the plan truly fits the site it is meant for, including the ugly constraints nobody photographs.
On-site judgment points

Yantai notes
Adaptation to local conditions prevents mid-course inaccuracy across districts. Dongdian Huichong keeps users in the discussion so designs stay grounded, turning the chain into dependable local service rather than a poster in an office lobby somewhere uptown. Judging this chain on site means trusting the load profile over the brochure, because the brochure never mentions the Tuesday evening when everything spikes at once unexpectedly. Across Yantai, Source-grid-load-storage in Yantai: stays the thread we return to on every return visit, because consistency on site beats a clever idea that nobody follows through.
