What Pleevi runs on: the hardware and the cloud
Pleevi is software, built on hardware and a cloud that carry certifications of their own. Here is what the Edge and the platform run on, and what happens on site when the internet drops.
On site: the Pleevi Edge
The Pleevi Edge is the controller in your electrical cabinet. It connects your chargers, batteries, solar inverters and meters, and steers them every second. It is built on the Revolution Pi Connect, an industrial computer that KUNBUS makes in Germany for control cabinets.
These certifications are KUNBUS’s, for the Revolution Pi Connect, not Pleevi’s:
- UL-certified, UL file E494534
- CE-marked
- Developed in accordance with EN 61131-2, the standard for programmable controllers
- Tested for immunity in industrial environments, to IEC 61000-6-2
- Rated for −25 to +55 °C, on a standard DIN rail
When the internet drops
Your grid limit and safety limits are enforced on the Edge itself, so they hold with or without a connection. The Edge keeps following the last plan, which looks 24 hours ahead, and only falls back to local load balancing after 24 hours without a new one. Once the connection is back, it picks up the new plan by itself.

In the cloud
Pleevi’s platform runs on Google Cloud, and your data is stored in its Belgium region (europe-west1, in St. Ghislain).
These certifications are Google’s, for Google Cloud, not Pleevi’s:
- ISO/IEC 27001, 27017 and 27018: information security, and security and privacy in the cloud
- ISO/IEC 27701: privacy information management
- SOC 1, SOC 2 and SOC 3 reports
- BSI C5, Germany’s cloud security catalogue
Between the site and the cloud
Traffic between the Edge and the cloud is encrypted, and the Edge only connects outwards: nothing on your site network is opened to the internet. In Pleevi Studio, access is role-based: installers configure, operators steer their sites, and site owners see their own dashboards.
