he Home Smart Energy Hot Water Heater is a Smart Energy product that diverts excess energy produced by a PV system to a load, normally a hot water heater. The device saves energy, helps optimise solar energy usage, and reduces utility bills by storing energy as hot water during the day when surplus energy is high, and providing free hot water later on in the day.
These devices communicate with the SolarEdge Home ecosystem via the wireless mesh SolarEdge Home Network. The SolarEdge Home Network communication replaces the previous ZigBee-based wireless communication for improved network stability, easier setup and control.
For the immersion to work the SolarEdge inverter will require the Modbus meter to track consumption.
SolarEdge Home Network-based load control devices cannot be mixed with ZigBee-based load control devices for the same inverter or site installation. For more information, click here.
