Use more of the solar you produce

Pleevi forecasts your solar production from the weather, then plans charging, the battery and flexible loads around it, so less of your solar goes back to the grid for next to nothing.

One day at a real site

A workplace with four electric cars, a building, 50 kWp of solar, a 100 kWh battery and a 70 kW grid connection, on a dynamic energy price.

The problem

Your solar sells for next to nothing

€0.04 out, €0.22 or more in

A kWh of surplus solar earns about €0.04 sent back to the grid, and saves €0.22 or more when you use it on site.

About 30% used on site

Without planning, a site uses only about 30% of its own solar.

Sun at noon, demand at five

Solar peaks at midday, while cars and buildings draw most when people arrive and leave.

How Pleevi solves it

Solar optimization, built into the engine

Weather-based forecasts

Pleevi forecasts your solar production a day ahead and updates the plan as clouds come and go.

  • Re-planned as the forecast changes
  • Based on the weather forecast for your site

Solar-first scheduling

Charging and flexible loads move to the hours when the sun delivers, while vehicles still leave on time.

  • Employees set a departure time, Pleevi picks the sunny hours
  • Works with the inverters you have

Store the surplus

With a battery, the midday surplus is stored for the evening instead of exported for little.

  • Up to 80%+ self-consumption with storage
  • See the solar share in Pleevi Studio
FAQ

Questions we often hear

Which inverters does Pleevi work with?

Inverters from all major brands, over Modbus TCP. See some of the brands.

Do we need a battery?

No. Solar-first scheduling already uses more of your solar; a battery stores the rest for the evening.

What about cloudy days?

Pleevi re-plans with the latest forecast whenever it changes, so a cloudy morning does not leave vehicles short.
