US based Enphase energy has been introduced IQ Energy Management AI software platform in Australia and New Zealand, and integrates it into the existing system.
The solution integrates with Enphase Energy solar and IQ Battery systems to enable intelligent management of variable electricity rates and select third-party electric boilers and electric vehicle chargers.
Managed through the Enphase app, the system can predict energy production and consumption while monitoring energy rates, choosing when to charge an EV or heat water at the most favorable times.
Enphase Energy Senior Vice President Sales Ken Fong said Australia and New Zealand are global leaders in home electrification, and IQ Energy Management is building on that momentum.
“Our goal is to help homeowners get the most out of every kilowatt-hour of clean energy they generate. With this launch, we are giving installers a powerful new way to increase the value of every Enphase system by optimizing key home appliances from one intelligent platform.”
Intelligent monitoring
The IQ Energy Management system learns a home’s consumption patterns and monitors the weather to enable solar production predictions, keep an eye on electricity prices and daily energy needs.
It can also increase savings by importing and exporting energy at optimal times or by reducing the carbon footprint by prioritizing the use of solar energy.
The IQ Energy Management uses the Enphase IQ Energy Router product suite for two possible modes, including self-consumption mode, which prioritizes solar and battery energy over grid electricity, transforming a home into a renewable energy plant.
