Take control of your energy consumption with Energy+
If you use HomeWizard products, you automatically have access to the free functionalities of the HomeWizard Energy app. With an Energy+ subscription, you get additional access to multiple exclusive functionalities for as little as €0.99 per month or €11.95 per year. Read on to learn more.
Connect your solar panels
Connect your inverter in the app in a few simple steps without any additional products. Now you’re able to see how much energy your solar panels are generating and how much power you are consuming grossly in your home (P1 Meter data combined with your solar generation data).
With Energy+ you can set up a connection with the following brands: SolarEdge, GoodWe, Growatt, SMA, Enphase, Huawei, Solax, APsystems, Solis.
Get insight into self-consumption
Be conscious about your renewable solar energy and consume as much as possible at the time of generation. View how much of your generated power you consume. Discover potential improvements. The more solar power you consume directly, the more you save. Every kWh you get from your generation saves a kWh from the grid. By doing this, you save on energy costs while doing something sustainable!
Reduce your standby consumption
Energy+ analyzes your home’s total continuous consumption. The standby graphs show how much continuous consumption there is in your home. If you have high standby consumption, you can find the problem, reduce your standby consumption, and save money.
Switch on dynamics tariffs
Turn on your appliances when energy is cheapest. Make the most out of the prices that change every hour. You can do this with the Energy Socket and Energy+. Specify how long you want the Energy Socket to be on and whether this time should be consecutive.
Unlock unlimited storage
Keep your data regardless of which energy provider you’re with. With Energy+, you can store your data longer than the 12 months offered in the free version. Compare years and seasons and gain new insights. Completely independent of energy supplier. No problems or loss of data once you change energy supplier or type of contract.
Get notified when something is wrong
Receive smart notifications in case of abnormal electricity, gas, or water consumption thanks to intelligent learning algorithms. This will prevent surprises and help you control your energy and water costs.
Export your data
Would you prefer to work with your energy data yourself? Export the data from your graphs to analyze in Excel or just keep it for storage. Be in total control thanks to configurable periods.
Get insight into 3-Phases
Get insight into the individual phases of your P1 Meter (if your smart meter supports this) or kWh Meter. View exactly how much power each phase uses in the ‘now’ and ‘day’ views.
Unlock the overvoltage graph
Are you curious about your inverter failing due to too much solar power being generated nearby? The overvoltage graph will tell you! Prevent excessive grid voltage and possible failure of your inverter. Is your smart meter SMR version 5 or higher? Unlock this graph by subscribing to Energy+.
Switch automatically on solar surplus
Make the most of your solar power by switching your Energy Socket with a solar task. Effortlessly shift your electricity consumption to moments when you are generating more solar power than you’re consuming. Prevent unnecessary exported solar power. Extra sustainable!
