The following information is from the last update, which took place in 2022 - 2023. If you are reading this notice, the provider has not updated its information since the last update and the information may be out of date.
As a central unit, the e.manager controls, regulates and monitors all energy-related components in the residential or commercial building. Integrated into the distribution system, it intelligently networks energy producers and consumers and thus optimises energy costs. In this way, the photovoltaic system can be monitored, self-consumption optimised, feed-in managed or direct marketing carried out.
