Fronius and Loxone offer comprehensive energy management system

(Wels, 21.08.2013) Fronius International GmbH, quality leader in the field of solar electronics, and Loxone, inventor of the Miniserver-based solution for home automation, have recently started working together. The aim is to offer customers of both companies a comprehensive energy management system. As a result, customers will be able to increase their self-consumption and cut costs.

Increasing self-consumption through intelligent home automation

The Loxone Miniserver controls everything in the home, from the shading to the heating. Combining the Miniserver with a photovoltaic system and Fronius inverters gives the property owner a convenient way of managing energy to increase levels of self-consumption. In other words, more of the energy generated can be consumed at source.

The overall result is that the investment in the photovoltaic system is recouped that much sooner. Another important aspect is greater autonomy in the supply of energy. “The aim of our cooperation with Loxone is to offer our customers a comprehensive energy management system”, says Martin Hackl, Head of the Solar Electronics division of Fronius International GmbH. Connecting the Fronius inverter to the Loxone Miniserver is very easy; doing so provides the customer with many useful applications, such as the ability to control a wide range of consumers according to the amount of current produced, or the option to charge an electric car.
