myenergi Eddi- Solar Power Diverter
Put the brain into your solar PV system.
A solar photovoltaic (PV) system without an eddi is a like a car without a steering wheel or driver. Without an eddi, you have no control over where you want your self-generated energy to go, or how you want to use it. Solar PV owners without an eddi waste large amounts of their self-generated energy by giving any unused electricity freely, or cheaply back to the grid.
eddi ensures that you are maximising the consumption of all your own self-generated solar / wind energy by diverting it to be used within your own property, such as to power heating systems, heat water or maximise the efficiency of a heat pump. The possibilities are endless!
Frequently Asked Questions
Solar Power Diverters
A solar power diverter is a device that optimizes the use of solar-generated electricity by directing excess energy to a specific purpose, such as heating water or space, rather than exporting it back to the grid.
Solar power diverters monitor the surplus electricity generated by solar panels and direct it to a connected appliance or heating system, typically through an immersion heater or heating element.
Solar diverters are commonly used with water heaters, immersion heaters, or heating systems. They can also be connected to other high-consumption appliances like electric storage heaters.
Solar power diverters maximize the self-consumption of solar energy, reduce electricity bills, and lower carbon emissions by using excess solar power for heating purposes.
No, solar power diverters are compatible with most standard electric water heaters or immersion heaters. However, it’s essential to check compatibility with your specific heater.
Yes, some solar power diverters can work in conjunction with battery storage systems to ensure efficient utilization of surplus solar energy.
The cost-effectiveness of a solar power diverter depends on factors like your solar panel system size, energy consumption patterns, and local electricity rates. In many cases, they offer a good return on investment.
Installation may require electrical knowledge, so it’s recommended to have a qualified electrician install the diverter to ensure safety and compliance with local electrical codes.
Most solar power diverters are compatible with standard solar PV systems. However, it’s advisable to check compatibility with your specific solar inverter and panel setup.
Many solar power diverters come with monitoring systems or smartphone apps that allow you to track how much surplus energy is being diverted and used for heating or other purposes.
