Home Automation
Automation Solar is a unique software platform that allows you to achieve more savings from a Solar PV and battery storage installation.
Most residential solar pv is installed with battery storage and if it is not then you need to get some installed. The use of batteries in residential solar pv installations increases the energy independence and provides the homeowner with a great option to store more energy from the sun. Residential energy users often have great solar pv production in the summer and much less usage.
This means that the opportunity to export is really worthwhile. Plus there is now flexible tariffs from Octopus and other energy providers. The problem is that the decisions are complicated and require a lot of information before the best decisions can be made.
This is where Automation Solar increases your savings and return on investment, making decisions that are well informed, complex and can only really be done by artificial intelligence. In fact Automation Solar actually works better in the winter to capitalise on the lower producing periods to store power when you really need it, so optimising the battery storage to suit your needs.
The engine also ensures that your expensive batteries do not frequently cycle and so reducing their warranty and life expectancy.

How it works
Automation Solar sign up and getting started is easy and takes a few minutes to input your data. There is no site visit, no hardware and no settings to change.We also do not need to speak to your engineer either as everything is done remotely and takes several minutes once registered.
All you need is some details about your system and we do the rest, so before you start the registration process please make sure you have all your details on your inverter and Solar PV system along with battery details.
Automation Solar is a monthly subscription fee with a minimal set up depending on the size of your system. This can be as little as £10 a month with a one off set up fee of £50 and total savings per year of £500.
Automation Solar will run 365 days a year and 24 hours a day and you do not have to do anything once set up. We will also advise you if you have a problem with your solar pv and battery storage system. If the inverter stops working or you need more battery storage to make even more savings, we can also advise you of this. We can also advise your installer that the Solar panels or inverter might need servicing or generation is reducing due to possible issues such as dirt and debris.
Reporting is also really easy to understand and see with Automation Solar and we can build custom dashboards for you on request to keep tabs on important running costs or loads, such as your electricity costs per kWh.
