"Determine self-consumption" project page
On the Determine self-consumption project page, you can determine your possible self-consumption with and without increased self-consumption.
Settings in the area Increased self-consumption:
In this section, you can select devices to better assess self-consumption.
To change the selection of devices, click on [Devices filter] and enable the required checkboxes.
With multicluster systems, click on [Add cluster] to add additional clusters. With multicluster systems, all batteries are automatically configured identically.
For increased self-consumption with the Sunny Home Manager, enable the checkbox Energy management.
To configure increased self-consumption with systems for intermediate storage of energy, enable the Intermediate storage of excess PV energy checkbox.
In the column Device, select the required device.
Click on Settings in the row of the required device and configure the storage.
If Energy management and Intermediate storage of excess PV energy have been selected, click on Battery charging time window in the Settings area.
Settings in the area Specific loads:
In this section, you can select devices to better assess self-consumption. The consumption of these devices is taken into account in the calculation with and without optimization in the section Result.
To configure self-consumption with specific loads, enable the checkbox Specific loads. The checkbox is already enabled if you have selected a heat pump as a load on the page Define load profile. If required, you can adjust the settings here.
Click on Settings in the line of the required device and adjust the properties.
To configure self-consumption with an electric vehicle, enable the checkbox Take e-mobility into account. The checkbox is already enabled if you have selected an electric vehicle as a load on the page Define load profile. If required, you can adjust the settings here.
Click on the field Settings and adjust the driving profile.
Result area:
In this section, the increased self-consumption details are displayed graphically.
Settings in the area Load analysis:
Information: This section is only shown if you are logged in as a Sunny Design Pro user.
To open the load analysis for the load profile, click on [Open load analysis].
