We display the following energy flows:

  • PV yield

  • Energy feed-in

  • Electricity consumption

  • Heat pump

  • Battery storage (coming soon)

  • Wallbox (coming soon)

PV Yield

More on this here

Energy Feed-in and Feed-in Tariff

Energy feed-in describes the surplus PV yield that is not used by consumers such as the household (electricity consumption), heat pump, or wallbox. In the settings, you can define the feed-in tariff.

Electricity Consumption

Electricity consumption is taken from the project inputs. You can enter or overwrite the electricity consumption in the Planning tab.

If you or your customer have already entered the electricity consumption in a check or in the Technical Feasibility Check, this value will be used.

Heat Pump

The consumption for the heat pump is taken from the heating planning and added to the household electricity consumption.

The value from the selected method is used. For example, if you selected Room-based, Consumption-based, or Direct Input, only that value will be adopted.

Wallbox

The consumption of the wallbox will also be displayed in the simulation in the future, once e-mobility planning becomes available.

Battery Storage

🔋 Currently, the simulation works with an “infinitely large” storage. This means we assume that 100% of the consumption can be covered with available PV electricity. In the future, we plan an hourly simulation based on real weather data. As part of this update, we will also revise the simulation of battery storage.
