Smarten Up Your Solar PV

Maximise use of solar energy by dynamically diverting excess PV into hot water, creating a solar hot water battery.

  • Cut hot water energy bills by up to 60% (when integrated with Octopus Agile smart tariff)

  • Improve SAP outcomes with Appendix Q recognition

  • Support grid flexibility with intelligent energy scheduling

  • Heats only what’s needed for faster delivery and less waste, with direct electric or gas

Tackling Fuel Poverty in Mid Wales

Mixergy’s smart cylinders and solar PV tech are helping Mid Wales households cut energy bills and carbon emissions, delivering real savings, comfort and sustainability through innovative partnerships.

Mixergy is a year-round solution, so even without the solar PV, the machine learning means they can heat what they need. But with PV topping it up, it means they will virtually have no cost to their hot water bills when the sun is shining.
