Intelligent energy management with HEMS – the future of solar energy
In times of rising energy prices and growing environmental awareness, intelligent solutions for optimising energy consumption are increasingly coming into focus. Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS) are a central component of modern solar systems. They enable efficient, transparent, and sustainable control of energy flows in the home..
What is a HEMS?
A home energy management system is an intelligent control unit that records, analyses and automatically manages all energy flows in your household. It connects your solar system, battery storage, electrical consumers, heat pump, wallbox and, if necessary, the public power grid to form a smart overall system. The aim is to maximise self-consumption of self-generated solar power while minimising grid consumption.
Why a HEMS in a solar system?
Integrating a HEMS into your solar setup offers multiple advantages:
-
Optimised self-consumption: The system recognises when solar production is high and automatically activates devices like washing machines or water heaters.
-
Full Transparency & control: A user-friendly app or web interface gives you real-time insights into consumption, solar production, and battery status.
-
Cost efficiency: Targeted control reduces electricity costs and avoids peak loads.
-
Sector coupling made easy: HEMS connects electricity, heating, and mobility – enabling a holistic energy solution for your home.
Seamless Integration into modern solar systems
Today, modern photovoltaic systems are more than just suppliers of electricity – they are part of a digital ecosystem. A well-integrated HEMS ensures that all components work together seamlessly. For instance, surplus solar power can not only be stored, but also used to operate a heat pump or charge an electric car – all automatically, efficiently, and tailored to your needs.
Future-proof & expandable
HEMS have a modular design and can be flexibly adapted to future requirements. They can grow with your needs – whether you add new appliances, extra PV modules, or additional storage. This makes HEMS a long-term investment in a self-sufficient and sustainable energy future.
