Solar and Smart Home Systems
How do I connect solar to my smart home?
Connecting solar to your smart home automates savings: (1) SMART PLUGS (£10-£15 each) — turn on appliances when solar is generating. (2) SOLAR MONITORING APPS — GivEnergy, SolaX, Solis apps show real-time generation and consumption. (3) MYENERGI ZAPPI — smart EV charger that only charges when surplus solar is available. (4) MYENERGI EDDI — diverts surplus to immersion heater automatically. (5) HOME ASSISTANT / NODE-RED — advanced automation linking solar data to any smart device. (6) OCTOPUS AGILE/FLUX — smart tariffs that sync with your solar and battery. Result: self-consumption rises from 35-45% to 70-90% without any manual effort. Extra savings: £200-£500/yr.
