What is the best way to use excess solar energy?

Households with solar panels often generate more electricity than they need at any given time. Feeding excess power back into the grid is often not very profitable. The myenergi eddi offers a smart solution by allowing you to use excess solar energy directly in your home.

How does the myenergi eddi work?

The eddi continuously measures how much electricity your solar panels generate and how much your home consumes. As soon as there is a surplus, the eddi automatically sends this energy to an electric water heater, underfloor heating, or another resistive load.

Thanks to the patented varisine™ power control system, power is adjusted continuously. This ensures that every available watt is utilized, without fluctuations or grid pollution.

More than just an energy diverter

• Load balancing: The eddi automatically adjusts the power output to prevent the main fuse from being overloaded.
• Monitoring function: Using CT clamps or the wireless Harvi, the Eddi can also monitor other circuits, such as a washing machine circuit.
• Insights via the app: real-time view of generation, consumption, load shifting, and savings in the myenergi app.
• Versatile use: suitable for hot water, heating, and other electrical loads.

Practical Benefit for Solar Panel Owners

By using solar energy directly on-site, self-consumption increases significantly and dependence on the power grid decreases. When combined with an EV charger or home battery, the eddi is a key component of a smart energy system.

“Since we started using the eddi, we’ve been using much more of our own solar power. Most of our hot water now comes from the sun.”

Key Benefits at a Glance

• Less power fed back into the grid
• Increased self-consumption of solar energy
• Safe and Stable Power Control
• Full integration with other myenergi products
