Even without battery storage, you can optimize your solar system. The key lies in smart load management combined with dynamic tariffs.
The Problem Without Storage
Your solar system produces most at midday – but you are often not home. The electricity flows to the grid at 8ct/kWh feed-in. In the evening, you buy back at 30ct/kWh.
Solution: Shift Consumption
- Washing machine: Timer to 12:00
- Dishwasher: Start after lunch
- Hot water: Heat boiler at midday
Increase Self-Consumption Rate
| Measure | Self-consumption |
|---|---|
| Without optimization | 25-30% |
| With load shifting | 40-50% |
| With smart home | 50-60% |
| With storage | 70-85% |

Many PV systems struggle with low self-consumption rates, often hovering around 30%. By utilizing the Stromfee BESS Academy principles, it is possible to significantly increase this percentage to over 70%. This transition ensures that more of your generated solar energy is used directly by your household or business. Our focus is on turning wasteder production into usable power for your daily needs.
Scalable Solutions for Every Scale
Stromfee provides solutions tailored to various scales, from residential households to large industrial operations. Whether you have a 10 kWp PV system or a massive 100 kWp installation, our approach remains consistent. We help manage systems ranging from small-scale setups to large-scale enterprises with high-capacity requirements. Our goal is to optimize your specific infrastructure regardless of its size.
Smart Management and Market Awareness
Understanding the market is crucial because electricity can become very expensive when sourced from the grid. The Energy Core by Stromfee.AI provides live market feeds and real-time spot prices to help you manage your consumption intelligently. By monitoring production against current market conditions, you can make informed decisions about when to use your stored energy. This proactive management helps avoid high costs during peaked periods.
