How does the PANTABOX Energy Manager take my home storage system into account?

Modified on Wed, 19 Feb at 11:13 AM

If the PANTABOX energy manager is compatible with your hybrid inverter (compatibility list), a home storage system connected to the hybrid inverter is also automatically recognized.


In principle, the home storage system (or stationary storage system) is prioritized:


In the morning, excess charging waits until the home storage system is full. In the evening, charging is paused so that the home storage system remains full.


A slightly more detailed technical explanation:


Your hybrid inverter regulates the flow of electricity from/to the home storage system. It would supply an active charge from the home storage system as it cannot distinguish the type of load.


This is why the PANTABOX energy manager “observes” the energy flows to and from the home storage system and includes any power drawn from the home storage system when calculating the surplus in order to avoid unwanted draining.


⚠️ If the PANTABOX energy manager is not connected to the hybrid inverter, but only a root meter (Shelly 3EM or similar) is connected, for example, an active charge may be supplied from the home storage system. This is due to the control of the hybrid inverter.
