Rasol Oy Launches Sunplussa – A New Smart Energy Management Solution for Properties

Meriaura Group’s subsidiary Rasol Oy has annouced the launch of ’Sunplussa’, a smart system that integrates local energy production, storage, and consumption control for homes and buildings. The comprehensive solution includes solar panels and a battery storage dimensioned according to the customer’s energy consumption profile. These components are connected via a smart control system that can also manage property-level energy usage, such as heating and hot water storage.

The AI-based control system enables the optimization of electricity production, storage, and consumption based on both electricity market prices and weather conditions. The system enables cost savings by utilizing the cheapest hours of the electricity market by storing electricity in the battery and avoiding the most expensive price peaks by discharging it for property use when electricity is expensive, or consumption is high. Sunplussa can also be connected to the reserve market.

The user interface is device-independent and designed for ease of use. The system has been piloted e.g. in the first phase of the previously announced Skogby Strand project.

Rasol Oy CEO Antti Lilleberg comments:
“Local energy production, storage, and intelligent consumption control are the cornerstones of future energy systems—vital for both grid stability and the energy efficiency of individual properties. Sunplussa offers an easy-to-use and reliable solution that allows property owners to significantly reduce both their energy costs and carbon footprint in a safe and controlled manner.”
