Not just consumption – also export can be price-aware
Leafy Energy is about more than what you consume; it also monitors what you export. By linking your inverter or energy manager, you can optimise for moments when export is less attractive.
Strategies with solar and batteries
- Charge the home battery more aggressively when export prices are low.
- Favour direct export when prices are high instead of storing energy.
- Align flexible loads (like boiler or EV) with solar peaks.
Integration options
- Directly through your inverter’s API (if supported).
- Through Home Assistant or Homey integrations with both Leafy and the inverter.
- Via an external energy manager that orchestrates power flows.
In Leafy Energy demos, you can show how the battery does not just blindly absorb everything but chooses strategically when to store or export based on price.
