Tariff optimisation for home battery and EV
An algorithm that aligns the charging profile of the EV and the home battery with day-ahead prices on the power exchange. Result: energy costs 30% lower on average.
Standard apps know very little about your situation. We write automations that understand your consumption pattern, your tariffs, your devices and your preferences, and that you can keep adjusting yourself.
From a handful of rules to an orchestration platform that coordinates your home battery, solar panels, heat pump, EV charger and household appliances.
# Start appliances when there is surplus solar power
trigger:
- platform: numeric_state
entity: sensor.solar_surplus
above: 1500 # Watt
for: "00:05:00"
condition:
- battery.soc > 90
- hour between 10 and 15
action:
- start(washer, eco_program)
- heat(boiler, target=65)
- notify("Free power: appliances running.")

Local presence detection based on Wi-Fi, Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and motion sensors. Lighting, climate and music follow automatically. No Amazon, no Google.
The heat pump only runs on surplus solar power or at favourable tariffs. The buffer tank is preheated, so comfort is never compromised.
During a power cut, the home automatically switches to battery and solar power. Essential circuits get priority, non-essential appliances are switched off and you receive a notification.
We pick the right tool for each project. Sometimes a visual flow, sometimes code, depending on what needs to stay maintainable.
That is exactly what we are here for. Tell us about it: we will think along with you and be honest when something is not needed.
