Settings for the optimization target
The optimization target indicates whether the Sunny Home Manager should prioritize ecological or economical factors for load management.
Setting | Explanation |
|---|---|
ecological (highest possible self-consumption) | Greater self-consumption conserves the environment because there is no energy loss caused by the transport of current through the utility grid. |
balanced | Equal distribution of the setting ecologically and economically. |
economical (highest possible cost savings) | The Sunny Home Manager calculates the most financially rewarding control of the loads, taking into consideration the electricity tariff. In certain cases, it may be more economical to feed the PV energy into the utility grid and to operate the individual loads at night using electricity purchased from the grid. |
