Turn your solar surplus into savings.
With automation you use more of the solar energy you produce and pay less for energy.
SmartGrid Kontrol is an application for intelligent appliance control. Its main goal is to minimise energy costs. The whole system runs locally, which keeps it secure and fully functional even if your internet connection goes down. SmartGrid Kontrol automatically switches your appliances on and off so they run on free solar surplus or cheap spot-price electricity, cutting your electricity bill without any effort.
Your roof already makes free power. Use more of it.
If you have solar panels, the extra electricity you don’t use right away is usually sold to the grid for a few cents or even for free. SmartGrid Kontrol uses it for your own consumption, so you buy less electricity and save more, with no effort at all.
Lower bills, automatically
Your big appliances run on free solar energy or in the cheapest hours, and your energy bill drops without any effort.
Set it and forget it
It works quietly in the background, day and night. Nothing to switch on or off.
Uses what you already have
Your air conditioning, machines, car chargers: everything you own that needs energy can be connected to SmartGrid Kontrol to save.
Everything to run on the cheapest energy
One small on-site controller decides, every few seconds, what to switch on and what to switch off.
Use your free solar
Appliances whose start can be postponed are switched on when there is enough of your solar energy, which you would otherwise export to the grid for a few cents.
Spot-price aware
Follows day-ahead market prices and runs flexible appliances at the times when electricity is cheapest.
Controls your devices
Switches your appliances on and off flexibly, by the rules you set. If an appliance needs to finish its cycle (for example the washing machine finishing a wash), it lets it finish even when solar energy is no longer available.
See your savings
Tracks the energy you consumed, how much of it was your own free energy, how much you sold to the grid and how much you saved on spot prices versus a flat tariff, by day, week, month or year.
Alerts on your phone
Choose from instant alerts for a SmartGrid Kontrol outage, switching failures and extreme spot prices, plus a daily summary. No VPN connection needed.
Safe and local
SmartGrid Kontrol includes protection against rapid switching and a fail-safe off. Your data stays safely with you.
SmartGrid Kontrol measures, decides, switches, saves
A simple control loop that runs on-site, around the clock.
Measurement
A smart meter reports all your energy consumption and all energy delivered to the grid every few seconds.
Decision
Rules combine the current solar production, the spot price, which can even be negative, and the time windows of all appliances, and decide what should be on or off.
Switching
A smart relay switches each appliance according to the configured rules.
Savings
Every switch-on is logged and costed, so you see exactly what you saved.
Built around your hardware
We simply connect SmartGrid Kontrol, a small box, to the devices you already own. No new electricity contract, no paid cloud.
A clear dashboard, in your language
Live power, spot prices, savings and device setup, in English, Slovak and Czech.
After installing SmartGrid Kontrol
Built around your needs
A customer-first approach is our top priority. Need something different? We’re always open to discuss it and adapt the system to your situation.
Custom dashboard
We can tailor the reports to the data you need or prefer – views, metrics, layout.
