In a world moving rapidly toward decentralised, digital energy, households and businesses are no longer just energy consumers—they’re becoming active players in the energy market, with the ability to save money—or even earn it—by using energy when it’s cheapest, selling excess solar back to the grid, and avoiding high electricity prices. At the heart of this transformation is Solis AI: a smart energy assistant built to automate, optimise, and maximise the return on solar and storage investments, with next to no effort required from the user.
Across Europe and beyond, dynamic tariffs are changing the rules of electricity pricing. With wholesale energy costs fluctuating every half hour, consumers are now exposed to peaks and lows in pricing that can dramatically alter their energy bills. One morning, you might pay €0.10 per kWh to charge your electric car; by the next morning, that same charge could cost €0.50—three to five times more. But for those with solar, battery storage or EV chargers, volatility becomes opportunity. Cheap midday solar? Store it. Evening peaks? Avoid them. Negative prices overnight? Charge the battery and get paid for it.
Yet taking full advantage of these scenarios requires time, advanced coordination and technical know-how—a task well beyond the reach of most consumers. This is exactly where Solis AI steps in.
Built into the SolisCloud app, it learns, predicts, and optimises energy flow in real time, delivering effortless automation and intelligent control across thousands of real-world scenarios. It gives customers everything they need to maximise the value of their solar investment—without lifting a finger. Solar that thinks for itself.
While other platforms rushed to launch basic AI features to ride the wave of AI hype, Solis took a different path—spending two years developing the most intelligent and adaptable system we’ve ever released.
So, what makes Solis AI different?
- Works with dynamic tariffs like Nord Pool and FlatPeak
Solis AI automatically adjusts energy use based on real-time electricity prices—charging when it’s cheap, avoiding the grid when it’s expensive.
- Compatible with virtual power plants (VPPs) and demand response
Joining programs that reward you for supporting the grid. Solis AI manages participation automatically, without disrupting your daily routine.
- Integrates with non-Solis devices via Enode
Connect EV chargers, heat pumps, and more through a single platform—no extra apps or hardware needed.
- Cloud-powered and always evolving
Solis AI runs in the cloud—not on local hardware—so it stays up to date, learns continuously, and needs no additional gateways or onsite controllers.
- Learns from real-world conditions
Trained on thousands of energy usage patterns and environmental scenarios, Solis AI improves over time to deliver better performance where it matters most.
- Works across the full Solis portfolio
From residential hybrids to large-scale commercial systems and even grid-tied inverters, Solis AI brings intelligent automation to every type of setup.
Once enabled in SolisCloud, Solis AI continuously adapts in the background, optimising energy usage based on:
- Time-of-Use tariffs (fixed or dynamic)
- Historical usage patterns and real-time consumption
- Solar generation forecasts and weather outlook
- Battery state of charge, health, charge/discharge cycles
- Export/import limits, backup needs, and even user-defined goals
It doesn’t just learn. It acts—with automated scheduling and seamless real-time control of all connected systems, from PV to storage and beyond. And the results speak for themselves: By simply shifting when energy is used, households* can cut electricity bills by up to 20%—typically saving €200–€300 per year. On top of that, users participating in grid services like demand response or frequency balancing can earn an additional €100+ annually, all without lifting a finger.
Solis AI supports a wide range of energy management strategies—whether it’s maximising self-consumption, avoiding peak prices, leveraging negative tariffs, or engaging in price arbitrage. For those who want deeper control, the system also allows advanced manual configuration to define custom boundaries and backup behaviour, giving users both automation and flexibility in one platform.
Most energy management systems require a mix of apps, extra hardware, and complicated contracts just to get started. Solis AI takes a different approach. It’s built directly into the SolisCloud app—no gateways, no subscriptions, and no hassle. Available on the latest firmware for S6 and S5 models.
Setup is quick, and everything can be managed in one place. From the app, users can:
- Monitor energy flow in real time
- Adjust HEMS modes on the fly
- Turn AI scheduling on or off
- See how much they’re saving—and earning
Solis AI is ready to support homes and businesses in multiple regions—and it’s evolving fast. New updates are scheduled throughout 2025, bringing enhanced interoperability, finer control over export limits, more intelligent EV charging, and AI-powered optimisation for grid-tied inverters during negative pricing events.
Solis AI is set to become the central pillar of the Solis ecosystem in the years to come, enabling users to take full advantage of grid fluctuations, market incentives, and self-consumption strategies with zero hassle.
The energy transition isn’t just about installing solar panels, it’s about making every kilowatt-hour count. Solis AI makes solar smarter, storage more effective, and every part of your system work harder for you.
Whether it’s a family looking to lower its energy bills or a business managing time-of-use tariffs, Solis AI makes it simple to take control.
