Solar energy that puts itself to work

PIERRE turns sunshine into automated action. The heat pump warms when the sun is high, the EV charges when surplus is biggest, the dishwasher waits for the right moment. You produced the energy, PIERRE makes sure the house actually uses it.

The problem

Solar without automation is just data

Panels on the roof are only half of the story. Without something deciding what to do with the energy second by second, most of the value slips by quietly.

The surplus slips by unused

Midday you produce way more than the house consumes. Without automation, that extra energy simply passes by. You generated it, but nothing was ready to take it.

The wrong things run at the wrong time

Water heater, dishwasher, pool pump, washing machine. By default they run when you press the button, not when the sun is up. The roof and the appliances never sync.

Heat pump and AC fight the panels

In summer the AC pulls hardest in the late afternoon, after most of the sun is gone. Pre-cool earlier and you halve the grid draw. Nobody does that manually every day.

The data sits in a chart

The inverter app shows production beautifully. It does not turn anything on. Reading "kWh produced today" does not save a single watt.

How PIERRE solves it

Solar energy turned into automated behavior

PIERRE treats the roof as a resource the whole house can use. Every kWh from the panels has a job waiting for it, decided in real time by what the home is doing.

Surplus routing in real time

Every second, PIERRE compares what the roof produces with what the house needs. The difference is steered where it matters most: water heater, EV, pool, AC. Every kWh from the roof gets used inside the home.

Energy scenarios you set once

"Sunny day" pre-cools the house and heats the water tank. "Cloudy day" rations non-essentials and protects the battery. "Away" runs only the pool. Set the rule once, the house follows it forever.

Time-shift heavy appliances

Dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, pool pump. PIERRE schedules them into the sunniest hours automatically, or learns your routine and asks once.

Heat pump and AC tuned to the sun

Pre-cool or pre-heat while the roof is producing, coast on stored comfort during the evening. Same set temperature, much smaller bill.

Battery decisions based on forecast

PIERRE checks tomorrow’s weather. Cloudy day coming, charge the battery now and ration the evening. Sunny day ahead, lean on the roof and keep the battery in reserve for when you really need it.

Energy budget for the household

Set monthly targets per room, per car, per guest. The house adapts in the background, so the bill arrives without surprises.

Solar scenarios

Every kind of day, every kind of use

PIERRE adapts to what the weather and the household are doing. The same panels, the same battery, the same heat pump, just used more intelligently from one moment to the next.

Summer noon, nobody home

Summer noon, nobody home

Roof at full production, house empty. PIERRE pre-cools the bedrooms to 22 degrees, fills the hot water tank, charges the battery, runs the pool pump. By 6 PM the house is comfortable, the tank is hot, and almost all of today’s solar stayed inside the home.

Cloudy week

Production drops. PIERRE pauses non-essentials, holds the battery for evenings, and shifts laundry to the brightest hour. The owner does nothing, the bill stays predictable.

Weekend with everyone home

Weekend with everyone home

EV plugs in, dishwasher runs after lunch, pool pump kicks on. PIERRE coordinates all of them around the production curve so the breaker never trips and the grid is barely touched.

Winter heat pump

Winter heat pump

Cold morning, panels start producing late. PIERRE delays the heating boost until the roof is contributing, then runs the heat pump hard while the sun is up. Comfort holds into the evening on stored warmth.

Behind the scenes

The pieces that turn a roof into a smart energy engine

A compatible inverter on the wall, energy meters on the main feed, an optional battery, and the PIERRE brain that decides where each kWh goes. The panels already work, PIERRE puts them to work.
