SolarEdge ONE is an energy optimization system orchestrating SolarEdge Home. It operates as the homeowner’s personal energy assistant. It is based on AI algorithms that gather and process data from three types of sources: External (weather forecasts, utility rates, etc.), internal (usage patterns and system parameters), and the homeowner’s preferences.
Using this data, SolarEdge ONE generates and deploys a personalized and optimized 24-hour energy plan that adapts to real time changes. This ensures that homeowners can make the most out of their SolarEdge investment and further reduce electricity bills, without the complexity of manually planning and managing their home’s energy. The system enables homeowners to store solar energy at cost-effective times, increasing energy independence by controlling the timing of their PV energy consumption. It also can extend backup durations and enable homeowners to take advantage of lower time-of-use rates. Examples of real-time decisions made by the system include storing energy for forecasted weather events, selling energy to the grid when prices are favorable and conserving solar power by turning off non-essential appliances.
SolarEdge ONE for SolarEdge Home
Principles driving innovation at SolarEdge:
Enable customers to maximize energy self-reliance with solar power produced by their owned systems;
Drive customer electricity bills down while maintaining continuity of energy supply through smart storage and utilization;
Achieve simplicity and convenience through a single system that manages and monitors energy production, storage, and consumption; and
Facilitate control of home energy devices with a single app, providing a full range of data and commands for real-time decision making.
SolarEdge maintains 602 granted product patents with an additional 528 patents pending[1].
A majority of our patents relate to DC power optimization and DC to AC conversion for alternative energy power systems, power system monitoring and control, battery technology and management systems.
The SolarEdge TerraMax™ inverter rated at 330kW and associated H1300 Power Optimizers, is the first DC-optimized utility-scale PV solution, allowing versatility and greater yields. TerraMax[3] is well-suited for ground mounts and other dual use PV installations such as Agri-PV, floating PV and Community Solar. It opens new installation opportunities in challenging terrains, where their potential could not have been maximized using traditional string inverter PV systems. SolarEdge ONE for C&I[2], is designed to integrate to the TerraMax solution, to offer advanced tools for continuous operation and monitoring, allowing lower maintenance costs throughout the project lifetime.
The SolarGik smart PV trackers are a highly beneficial addition for many types of optimized utility installations. Equipped with intelligent algorithms, the trackers can assist in optimizing production. They respond to remote commands but are also programmed to automatically adjust positioning based on weather predictions, crop requirements, and more. These compact and lightweight trackers can be installed on, greenhouses and agricultural fields, in addition to use in a traditional ground mount installation.
As the world seeks to decarbonize, we face challenges such as land use limitations. Our Optimized Utility solution offers advanced technologies for PV harvesting, tracking and energy management. Project developers can take advantage of new business opportunities by having access to previously overlooked land, such as uneven and sloped terrains, above crops or on bodies of water.
Our Optimized Utility solution is well-suited for the growing market of Agri-PV (dual land use for agriculture and energy production). Using MLPE (Module-level power electronics) technology, SolarEdge PV systems can mitigate challenges posed by Agri-PV by maximizing crop harvest and solar energy production, ensuring site safety and increasing operational efficiency.
Complete Optimized Utility Solution
SolarEdge is increasingly expanding its portfolio to provide a complete solution to each of our C&I (Commercial and Industrial) customers. We have tailored solutions for customers in a wide range of industries, so that each may maximize cost savings and advance towards their energy targets. Over 50% of Fortune 100 companies have SolarEdge technology on their rooftops. Industries we serve vary from retail, industrial locations, warehouses or distribution hubs, public buildings, multi-dwelling buildings, carports, airports and more.
As part of the ecosystem, we offer inverters, Power Optimizers, battery storage, EV chargers and energy management, accompanied by the SolarEdge ONE for C&I, energy optimization system (further details below). These solutions allow our C&I customers to generate, consume and store more energy, which is instrumental to the increased financial benefits they can see from their system.
Safety and cybersecurity are a key issue to our commercial customers for their business continuity, and these are important pillars upon which our solutions are built. Our systems will maintain production, despite a panel going off-line, due to our MLPE (Module-level power electronics) topology. SolarEdge builds on this base to provide a multi-layered, robust safety suite designed to prevent safety events and mitigate risks. We pay equal attention to cybersecurity, with multi-level protocols that include proactive security measures, continuous monitoring and the ability to rapidly respond to an incident, if it occurs. Our comprehensive approach includes device protection, data security, network safeguard, visibility and control.
SolarEdge ONE for commercial and industrial (C&I) solutions
SolarEdge ONE for C&I solutions[2] is an energy optimization system designed to automatically and constantly manages site energy production, storage and consumption.
