Energeno Ltd is developing smart energy-saving devices which work with renewable
power installations. The aim of the company is to provide in-home and web-based
tools for owners of renewable energy systems, funders of solar installations, and
maintenance companies to enable them to obtain the highest payback on their
renewables investment.
The other new product is an intelligent controller, called ‘Optimmersion’ which was launched in January 2013. The devicecautomatically diverts free (i.e. surplus) electricity generated by
the solar array to an immersion heater to provide free hot water.
There are plans to develop other products, either under the Wattson or Opti-range labels. As an example, the company would like to offer a range of energy storage subsystems so that homeowners can store self-generated, or off-peak electricity, which can be used in place of peak-rate electricity imported from the grid. The eventual aim is a trade sale once Energeno has reached critical mass in its main target markets.
