1.The Platform Utilises Duracell’s Domestic Storage
Domestic storage is central to the Social Energy platform, with Duracell storage batteries, developed in conjunction with manufacturer BYD, able to predict energy usage patterns. The platform utilises Duracell domestic 3.3kw batteries for storing energy generated through PV solar panels. It also stores energy imported from the grid or from other Social Energy customers. This smart functionality either stores energy or draws it from the grid when required through what’s known as grid-trading, with AI central to the way the system works.
2.Customers Can Rely On 100% Clean Energy
The platform, which is similar to a peer-to-peer network but for renewable energy, cuts out the ‘Big Six’ energy companies, who generate the electricity they distribute using fossil fuels. This means customers can reduce their carbon footprints by relying solely on the solar energy they produce or the energy produced via other customers and traded via the network.
