While renewable generation technologies were previously seen as a novel solution , significant investment and development has seen the market accelerate fast . Indeed , mainstream solutions have quite simply soared in popularity , with consumers eager to invest in future-proof innovations to alleviate the pressures of energy market volatility .
But with so many options available , which is the right choice for the savvy home builder ? Well , consumers want more than just a plug-and-play gadget – they want flexibility , reliability , best-inclass technology and more control of their home energy than ever before .
Energy , sustainability and renewables
When it comes to investing in renewables , it ’ s important to consider the numerous options available . Though most people want to save money , others will put a greater priority on cutting emissions and lowering their carbon footprint .
Mainstream generation solutions , such as solar PV , heat pumps and small-scale domestic wind turbines , are an excellent place to start – offering a simple way to offset reliance on the grid and take control of your energy spend . While many have the misconception that purchasing and installing hardware is expensive , the payback period of renewables is far shorter than many would have you believe .
What ’ s more , thanks to significant developments in battery technology , as well as innovation in self-consumption solutions ( i . e ., products that maximize the volume of renewable energy used within the home , rather than exporting it to the grid ), consumers can further improve their efficiencies . At myenergi , we ’ re best known for designing the market ’ s first eco-smart electric vehicle charging device – zappi – a future-proofed solution that , alongside operating as a mains-connected charging device , seamlessly integrates with renewable energy generation technologies to harness self-generated energy and allow users to charge their EV for free .
Alongside zappi , we also manufacture a wide range of other devices – such as eddi , the UK ’ s number one solar power diverter , which diverts surplus renewable energy to domestic heating systems ; and harvi , an energy monitoring wireless sensor that allows the zappi and eddi to be installed without wiring a direct CT clamp . Recently , we launched our state-ofthe-art home battery solution – libbi . The clever device makes intelligent decisions about when it consumes and stores electricity based on how much energy is being used , how much is generated from renewables and the customer ’ s electricity tariff . The hybrid battery system can adapt to a wide range of installation setups and allows customers to prioritize loads as they wish within the myenergi app .
Collectively , the myenergi ecosystem helps users to embrace the future and minimize reliance on fossil fuels . We see innovation as a key enabler in this journey – an opportunity to embrace the future . We want to equip households to make a difference , providing energy independence and leading-edge green energy technology . To that end , innovation is critical in delivering new technologies that can provide meaningful change . Our products have already disrupted a hugely competitive market , providing a fresh approach that drives , rather than follows .
As society transitions towards net zero , our ambition is to make energy independence simple and achievable for everyone . The idea of smart , automated systems that use renewable energy to power and warm your home while recharging your zero-emission vehicle is a real game-changer . However , it ’ s not a vision for the future , it ’ s available today .
