The Self-Aware Home
A home that manages its own energy
TerraVolt brings AI-driven automation to your whole home — intelligently coordinating solar, battery and appliances so energy is used at the cleanest, cheapest moment, without you lifting a finger.
A modern home is full of energy decisions: when to run the dishwasher, whether to charge the battery now or later, how warm to keep the house before the evening peak. Made by hand, these choices are tedious and easily forgotten. Made by an intelligent system, they happen perfectly, thousands of times a day, entirely out of sight.
TerraVolt's home energy automation is the quiet conductor of your household. It senses generation, storage, demand and price in real time, then orchestrates every connected device so your home runs on its own clean power as much as possible — comfortable, efficient and effortlessly green.
One brain for the whole home
We unify your solar inverter, battery, hot water, climate control, pool pump and EV charger under a single intelligent controller. Rather than a collection of gadgets each doing its own thing, your home becomes one coordinated organism. When the panels surge at midday, the system pre-heats water and pre-cools rooms; when evening prices climb, it gently draws from stored sunlight instead of the grid.
What automation takes off your plate
- Automatic load shifting that runs heavy appliances on surplus solar
- Battery dispatch tuned to weather forecasts and time-of-use tariffs
- Climate and hot-water pre-conditioning that beats the evening peak
- Scene-based routines that follow your daily and seasonal patterns
- Real-time alerts for faults, unusual consumption or grid events
- A single dashboard showing energy flows, savings and carbon avoided
Intelligence that grows with you
The system learns. Over weeks it builds a model of your household — when you wake, when the house empties, how your comfort preferences shift with the seasons — and refines its decisions accordingly. Forecasting tomorrow's solar yield and demand, it plans the optimal use of every kilowatt-hour you generate, quietly improving its accuracy the longer it lives alongside you. You stay fully in control, able to override any decision, while the AI handles the relentless background optimisation no person could sustain.
The result is a home in genuine harmony with its environment — drawing on daylight first, leaning on the grid last, and shrinking its carbon footprint without demanding your attention. Comfort never suffers; it improves, because the house anticipates your needs. This is what smart really means: not more screens to manage, but an intelligent home that simply does the right thing, gently and continuously, for you and for the planet.
Frequently asked questions
Will I lose control of my own home?
Not at all. The AI handles routine optimisation, but you can override any decision instantly through the app or set firm preferences it must respect. Think of it as a capable assistant — it does the tedious work while you keep the final say.
Does it work with my existing appliances?
In most cases, yes. We integrate compatible smart appliances, inverters, batteries, climate systems and EV chargers, and can add smart switching to many conventional devices. During the assessment we map your current setup and recommend the most cost-effective path to full automation.
How quickly will I see savings?
Many households notice lower bills within the first billing cycle as load shifting and smart battery use take effect. The system keeps improving as it learns your patterns, and your dashboard tracks savings and avoided CO₂ so the benefit is always measurable.
