Smart Home | PV & Smart Metering
Maximum self-sufficiency.
Simple. Step by step.
You're generating your own power – but are you making the most of it?
Why feed your electricity into the grid for little return – when you can use it yourself? With the Energy Cockpit in the wibutler-App, you maximise self-consumption: simple, automatic and tailored to your needs.
Here you can not only see your energy flows at a glance. You also determine how your PV surplus is utilised - with the aim of achieving maximum energy self-sufficiency.
Your advantages:
- More self-consumption instead of cheap feed-in - and your investment pays off faster
- Smart control of PV surpluses - for more efficiency and control in your home
- Connected across manufacturers - flexibly expandable with devices from leading brands
monitoring: full transparency
See what your home can do. in real time.
How much electricity is your PV system currently generating? Where does it go - into the car, into the storage system or back into the grid?
The Energy Cockpit shows you transparently how you are currently using your electricity - or how much you still need to draw from the grid.
Monitoring functions:
- Energy self-sufficiency
- Power generation
- Grid supply & grid feed-in
- Battery storage status
- Wallbox power
- Heat pump output
Automation: Utilise PV surplus
Better use of PV electricity. Charge your electric car efficiently.
With the Energy Cockpit in the wibutler-App you use your self-generated electricity where it saves you real money - for example when charging your electric car.
Instead of feeding electricity into the grid cheaply and buying it later at a high price, your solar energy flows directly into the wallbox. This is smart self-consumption - and a real step towards energy self-sufficiency.
Charging modes: So your home adapts to your everyday life.
Fast charging:
Full charging power - independent of PV yield. Ideal when things need to be done quickly.
Surplus shop:
Charging only with solar power - ideal for maximum efficiency and self-sufficiency.
Hybrid surplus loading:
Combination of PV power and limited grid supply - for consistent charging in changeable weather.
Time-based modes:
Day-dependent charging profiles - e.g. fast charging in the morning, surplus charging in the evening.
Your advantage: You use your electricity where it adds real value - for mobility instead of feeding it into the grid.
This increases your self-consumption, reduces your electricity costs and brings you closer to your goal of an energy self-sufficient home.
Soak up the sun. Increase living comfort.
PV surpluses can be used for more than just charging your electric car but also for heating.
You decide with a simple If-/Then rule: If sufficient solar power is available, wibutler automatically raises the room temperature to your comfort level - for example 22 degrees. Whether radiators or underfloor heating: wibutler controls your individual room control intelligently and proactively. This is particularly suitable for the transitional period: you make optimum use of your energy - and enjoy greater comfort without additional mains power.
You can also use an If-/Then rule to increase the temperature of your hot water cylinder. This allows you to store your PV surplus in thermal energy instead of losing it.
Your advantage: More heat when it costs nothing – and the good feeling of using your PV power sustainably.
Connect devices: be flexible.
your home speaks different languages. wibutler understands them all.
Do you want to connect more leading manufacturers with each other? No problem. wibutler is a cross-manufacturer platform. The Energy Cockpit is not an isolated solution and grows with your requirements.
directly integrable
- Wallbox: Mennekes AMTRON® 4You 500 series AMTRON® 4Business 700 series
- Battery storage: Viessmann Vitocharge (battery, house connection meter and inverter can be displayed individually)
More Possibilities
- Single-tariff electricity meter: Record either consumption or generation - e.g. for heat pump or PV system.
- Dual-tariff electricity meter: Simultaneously record consumption & feed-in - ideal for house connection point or battery storage.
Your advantage: wibutler keeps you free of closed systems - open, flexible, future-proof. You can find compatible devices in the wibutler shop.
Outlook: this is just the beginning
Soon you will be able to decide: PV surplus for the electric car or for thermal storage?
What is already possible today with your wallbox will soon also apply to buffer storage units. In future, you will be able to prioritise your PV surpluses - you decide whether the car or the thermal storage unit should be charged first. The main thing is that the electricity stays in the house. We do everything for your energy self-sufficiency.
wibutler then connects electrical and thermal energy flows - for holistic, cross-trade energy management.
YOUR ADVANTAGE: You live more efficiently - save energy and retain control over your electricity, your heat and your home.
