Energy management
Washing machine, heat pump and immersion heater run when your PV system is producing power – so you use more of your own electricity.
What is possible
Large appliances start when there is surplus PV power.
Surplus stored as heat in the buffer tank.
The grid connection is never overloaded; the wallbox adjusts automatically.
Appliances run when electricity is cheap.
Electricity, water, gas and heat recorded automatically.
A message if consumption is unusually high.
Good to know: Energy management
Your benefit
Large appliances such as the washing machine, heat pump or immersion heater run when your PV system is producing power. That way you use more of your own electricity, draw less from the grid and keep an eye on consumption throughout the house.
How we do it
Your home control system knows generation, battery level and consumption, and switches appliances according to rules we define together with you. We integrate meters via standards such as Modbus or M-Bus, so you can see every consumer individually.
What to expect
The effort depends on the number of appliances and meters, and on which devices can be controlled. It is often enough to start with a few large appliances and extend the system later.

Frequently asked questions: Energy management
Is energy management worthwhile without a PV system?
Yes, e.g. with dynamic electricity tariffs or to make consumption visible. The benefit is greatest with your own PV system, though.
Which devices can I control?
Anything that can be switched or has an interface – from the heat pump and immersion heater to household appliances with Home Connect.
Do I have to set anything up myself?
No. We set up the rules and adjust them whenever needed.
