For energy installers

Energy installers

As an energy installer, you know better than anyone that customers are increasingly encountering the same problems: rising energy costs, limited feed-in options and grid congestion that hinders their business operations.

They invest in batteries and solar panels, but without smart control the savings remain limited and the energy generated is not used optimally.

Here lies a huge opportunity for you as an installer: the Smartbox. This innovative system ensures that your customers charge their batteries at the most economical times, avoid expensive peak times and supply excess energy at the best rates.

Smartbox

A new market opportunity: Smartbox

Smart energy management is indispensable for companies that want to reduce their energy costs and get returns from their storage installations.

Smartbox is an advanced energy management system (EMS) that makes energy storage systems more efficient and cost-effective. The system monitors energy consumption and storage in real time and automatically controls batteries based on current energy rates and consumption patterns.

It stores energy when rates are low and returns it when prices are high.

01

Trade on all energy markets for extra income

In addition to optimizing self-consumption, Smartbox operates on energy markets such as EPEX, the imbalance market, control, reserve and emergency power and intraday trading. Balancing markets such as FCR and aFRR serves Smartbox through 10+ affiliated aggregators.

This way, your customers use their energy storage not only as a means of saving, but also as a revenue model: the system returns excess energy to the grid at favorable times.

Smartbox also responds to opportunities such as peak shaving, preventing grid congestion and unnecessary costs.

02

Solar panels, wind turbine or battery? Smartbox integrates effortlessly

For you as an installer, Smartbox opens the door to a total solution for energy management. You can easily integrate the system with existing and new energy installations: sun, wind, batteries, charging stations, generators and cooling, from the common brands of inverters, batteries and charging stations.

After installation, Smartbox takes over the entire energy optimization: from strategic charging and discharging to real-time monitoring and market management.

Smartbox Portal

Smartbox Portal: insight into real-time consumption data and performance at a glance

A smart energy installation is not complete without clear monitoring. The Smartbox Portal on my.smartboxpower.com and the Smartbox app for iOS and Android give installers and their customers complete control over energy storage and consumption, all from one clear dashboard.

The platform offers real-time insight into the energy flow, EPEX prices, grid consumption, battery status, energy input and yield of solar panels, wind turbines or generators: per second with Smartbox Regular and Pro, as 1-minute data with Smartbox Lite.

For installers, this means less guesswork and more efficiency: you manage all customer installations remotely, optimize performance and avoid unnecessary service visits.

Your customers benefit from transparency in their energy flows. Thanks to detailed consumption data and profit forecasts, they can immediately see how much they are saving or earning.

The portal offers benchmarks and comparison tools, which not only help customers understand their performance, but also make smart choices for the future.

Moreover, you can integrate the Smartbox with radiation meters and weather stations, allowing the system to provide an expected energy production. This way you proactively give your customers the best advice as an energy installer or company.
