MyVirtuoso Home, the smart home system that maximizes self-consumption thanks to the photovoltaic system and heat pump
Have you ever thought about offering your customers — who already have a photovoltaic system and a heat pump — a solution that optimizes communication and energy exchange between the two?
If your answer is “no,” take a moment to read this article.
Pairing a photovoltaic system with a ModBus-compatible heat pump, used for heating, cooling, and domestic hot water production, is the ideal solution to maximize PV system performance and minimize energy costs.
But how is it possible?
Thanks to MyVirtuoso Home, the Home Energy Management System (HEMS) specialized in managing energy systems.
It’s the best solution to combine all the benefits of energy savings and reduced environmental impact, while significantly lowering energy bills.
With MyVirtuoso Home and the available devices, the photovoltaic system can send energy production data to the Hub, which will regulate the operation of the heat pump based on the available energy surplus.
This way, the heat pump will use free solar energy and only consume what's necessary, significantly cutting electricity costs.
What are the benefits of this setup?
-
Monitoring of photovoltaic system production.
-
Optimization of self-generated energy usage by automatically adjusting the heat pump's setpoints or modulating the immersion heater.
-
Monitoring of the storage system levels.
-
Monitoring of the home’s total energy consumption.
-
Measurement of the energy consumed by the heat pump.
