Save energy and reduce your electricity bill with Niko
The world of energy is evolving rapidly. On the supply side, both wind and the sun are being put to good use, while in consumption, more and more homes and cars are 100% powered by electricity. These changes are making it harder for distribution companies to keep the energy mix in balance, which is why it becomes more expensive for the end-user.
A smart energy management system (EMS) like Niko Home Control can really help you optimise your energy efficiency.
What is an EMS or Energy Management System?
An Energy Management System (EMS) helps you take control of your home’s energy use. It gives you a clear overview of how much energy you produce, store, and consume, and helps you use it in the smartest way possible.
By connecting to your solar panels, heat pump, EV charger, and smart plugs, the EMS continuously monitors your energy flows. It can automatically adjust when and how devices run, so you make the most of your self-generated solar energy instead of drawing power from the grid.
With an EMS, you gain insights on your energy consumption and production. Utilise energy automation to make your home more energy-efficient, sustainable, and future-proof, without compromising your comfort. Niko Home Control has all the functionalities to help you do exactly that. It’s easy to program, and even easier to continuously monitor and manage your energy flows with the Niko Home app.
A no-brainer for electric drivers
Do you have an electric car? Then the Niko Home Control system offers you some extra benefits.
By making smart use of off-peak times and your own solar energy, you can save up to €947 per year on your charging costs.
That way, your driving will not only be environmentally friendly, but also highly affordable.
New construction with electric car and heat pump
For new-build homes with both a heat pump and an electric car charger, Niko Home Control will raise your savings to their peak.
Smart control of both systems can save you as much as €1,192 per year. An investment that pays for itself in no time!
Save energy and money by getting a grip on your consumption
Niko Home Control provides an accurate insight into your energy consumption. Both you – and the system – learn when is best to use your energy.
Among other things, by avoiding peak times and optimising your solar energy production for maximum efficiency, you can save 10 to 12% per year on average.
What is self-consumption?
Self-consumption means using the electricity you produce yourself (for example, the solar energy generated by your own solar panels) directly in your home instead of sending it back to the grid. This is a highly recommended strategy to save energy.
The more you can use your own energy at the moment it’s produced, the less you need to buy from your energy supplier. This helps you lower your energy bills and make your household more sustainable.
With an Energy Management System (EMS), you can easily increase your self-consumption. It automatically steers your connected devices, such as your heat pump, boiler, or EV charger, to use your solar energy when it’s available, so nothing goes to waste.
