SMA Energy System Home

Store solar power and use it flexibly

Maintain your solar energy supply — even when the sun is not shining

Sometimes, the sun delivers more power than you currently need. You would normally feed in the surplus power for a feed-in tariff that is considerably lower than the current electricity prices. Sometimes, however, solar power is not available when you need a lot of power – for example, if you want to charge your electric car overnight. This means that you would normally have to purchase expensive power from the utility grid. The SMA Energy Systems Home makes it possible to use a greater proportion of your own solar power.

Keep the solar power flowing even at night

Solar power is sometimes unavailable (at night) just when you need a lot of power – to charge your electric vehicle, for example. This means that you would normally have to purchase expensive power from the utility grid.

However, the SMA Energy Systems Home makes it possible to use a greater proportion of your own solar power. In fact, the benefits are twofold, because you would receive less money for grid feed-in than you would have to pay for purchasing power from the utility grid.

Advantages

Up to 80% lower energy costs*

Consume more solar power yourself by storing what you do not currently need

Use free solar power even when your PV system is not producing any electricity

Greater protection against rising energy prices

* For implementation of all the energy system’s applications

System in detail

SMA Energy Systems Home allows you to store your solar power for later use.

PV system
The roof-mounted PV system modules convert sunlight to solar power.
SMA ShadeFix
SMA ShadeFix is our software-based shade management system. Commonly this feature is used in systems with light to medium shading. Your energy yield is optimized without adding any further components to the system or PV modules. SMA ShadeFix is already integrated into SMA solar inverters and activated automatically during commissioning. There are no additional costs because SMA ShadeFix is an integral part of the operation management of almost all SMA solar inverters.
SMA Sunny Tripower or Sunny Boy inverter
The SMA inverter from the Sunny Tripower or Sunny Boy family is the core of SMA Energy Systems for your home. It converts the direct current generated by the roof-mounted PV system to alternating current as required in your home. In addition, it ensures optimum energy usage so that you have to purchase as little additional power as possible.
SMA battery inverter Sunny Boy Storage
The SMA Sunny Boy Storage battery inverter ensures that surplus solar energy is stored in the batteries so that it can be reused as needed. This way you can use solar power even after sunset. Reliable power supply even in the event of a grid failure.
SMA Monitoring
Whether via the Sunny Portals web portal or via an app, you are constantly updated on the performance of the SMA Energy System for your home, how much energy you have already produced, your level of self-consumption and how much additional power you are purchasing. You can also find out what the weather is like at the site where the system is located and the size of your CO₂ footprint.
Batterie
The battery stores the solar power with maximum efficiency and makes it available again as required. You can use the stored solar power to watch television in the evening, charge your electric car over night or even to power your washing machine, dishwasher or other bulk consumers in the household without using additional grid power.
Sunny Home Manager 2.0 or SMA Energy Meter
The Sunny Home Manager 2.0 or the SMA Energy Meter monitor all energy flows.
