Dynamic Pricing, New Opportunities
Across Europe, dynamic electricity tariffs—where prices can change every 30 minutes—are becoming more widespread. One morning, a kilowatt-hour might cost 10 cents; the next day it could be as high as 50 cents. While this volatility poses challenges, it also opens up new opportunities, especially for those with solar panels, batteries, or electric vehicle chargers.
-
Excess production during the day? Store it.
-
Peak demand in the evening? Avoid it.
-
Negative prices at night? Charge the battery—and even earn money.
However, taking advantage of these opportunities efficiently requires time, technical knowledge, and the right system. That’s exactly where Solis AI comes in.
How Does Solis AI Work?
Solis AI operates through the SolisCloud app and learns, plans, and controls energy flow in real time. Its goal is to get the most out of solar production and storage—completely automatically.
Key Advantages:
-
Adapts to dynamic tariffs (e.g. Nord Pool, FlatPeak): charges when electricity is cheap and avoids the grid when it’s expensive.
-
Compatible with virtual power plants (VPP) and demand response programs: manages participation automatically, with no user input needed.
-
Integrates with other devices (e.g. EV chargers, heat pumps) via the Enode platform—no extra app or hardware required.
-
Cloud-based system: no local controller needed, always up to date, and constantly evolving.
-
Learns from real usage data, becoming more efficient over time.
-
Works with the entire Solis product range, from residential setups to commercial solutions.
Tangible Results, Made Simple
Solis AI automatically considers time-based tariffs, solar production forecasts, battery status, and even user preferences—all in the background. The system doesn’t just optimize—it acts: intelligently scheduling energy use and controlling connected devices.
As a result, the average household can reduce its electricity bill by up to 20%, saving €200–€300 per year. In addition, those participating in grid services (like demand balancing) could earn an extra €100 annually.
Automation and Freedom in One Platform
For users seeking deeper control, Solis AI also allows custom settings: define storage priorities, reserve energy levels, or set export limits. This means the system offers automated convenience and full customization in one.
Installation is simple: everything is managed from the SolisCloud app—no separate gateway, subscription, or complex configuration needed. The system is compatible with the latest S6 and updated S5 inverter models.
Constant Improvement
Solis AI not only addresses today’s energy market challenges—it’s also constantly evolving. Features coming in 2025 include:
-
More advanced integration with third-party devices
-
Fine-tuned export limits
-
Smart EV charging
-
AI-based optimization for grid-feeding systems—especially during negative pricing events
In Summary: Intelligent, Automated Energy for the Future
Installing solar is a crucial step—but real value comes from using every kilowatt-hour wisely. Solis AI ensures smarter solar operation, more efficient storage, and the best possible use of your system at every moment.
Whether a household aims to save money or a business wants to optimize energy use, Solis AI makes it easy to take control.
Note: Some features (e.g., automatic VPP participation) will become available through future updates, with rollout schedules varying by region. For exact availability, please check with your local Solis representative.
