To fully embrace solar technology, it is simply not enough to install a solar system and stop there. As our lives evolve, to adequately adjust living to successfully exist within an always-on environment, solar installations are just the first step, albeit a critical one. Consumers need to look beyond solar when planning their alternate energy approach, recognising that smart technology, and the Internet of Things (IoT), in the home, is where the future of solar is headed.
The Internet of Things is the communication between a network of interoperable devices that can work with each other, as a big information system. We all need to become comfortable with IoT and the critical role it plays in managing the energy generated by solar panels.
The use of IoT technology can assist in increasing overall household efficiencies, optimising the consumption of resources as well as eliminating waste and making the running of a home as cost effective as possible. But using this technology to manage our solar systems is just one step in the process to equip our homes to manage the planet’s, and our own resources better.
We have developed a Versofy HOME app, which uses IoT technology and is putting control of the generation, storage and consumption of solar power into your hands. We are building a community of solar-empowered consumers that are able to benefit from all that solar technology has to offer. The smart system, together with IoT devices, will shift electricity loads when batteries are reaching capacity. Once a battery is full, any power generated by panels is redundant and effectively wasted and so incorporating this kind of technology into the home maximises the utility and cost effectiveness of the system.
The Versofy’s HOME app is the foundation on which other technologies will be integrated
in the future, including managing water and related devices such as heat pumps, pool
pumps and geysers.
