In Situ Energy/Change 38
IoT solution for sharing green energy.
In Switzerland, the government has decided to phase out the use of nuclear power and instead use 100 % renewable energy by 2050. As a result, it has been crucial to find intelligent new ways of producing and consuming energy.
The Swiss company In Situ Energy AG has taken up the battle and invented an intelligent platform for sharing sustainable energy. They are convinced that the government’s goal can be reached already by 2038, due to new business concepts and disruptive technologies.
Sharing green energy
In Situ Energy has called their sustainable initiative Change38. The people behind it came to Onics wishing to connect to their IoT platform devices for measuring energy production, consumption, and importantly, to enable their customers to share self-produced green energy with other peers.
With the increasing use of solar panels and windmills in private homes and institutions, In Situ Energy saw a great potential for making even better use of the energy produced.
What the customer says:
Reduced time to market
In order to carry out their visionary project, In Situ Energy needed a reliable interface to install on meters in private homes and a central gateway to manage data. However, they realized that developing their own hardware would be costly and time-consuming.
Onics had the solution and could provide the company with the necessary devices. Three of our white label products were chosen; the External Meter Interface to install on existing meters, the Squid.link gateway as the center of the solution facilitating communication between the meters, and smart plugs to control devices and their energy consumption.
