Problem
Businesses with multiple energy‑intensive assets such as pumps, ventilators, processing machines, or electric vehicle fleets often lack real‑time visibility and automated control over their consumption, leading to high electricity costs, inefficient use of renewable sources, and difficulty complying with environmental regulations.
Solution
SMPL One provides an integrated hardware‑software platform that monitors the power draw of all connected equipment and automatically adjusts operation based on real‑time availability of cheap or renewable electricity. The system aggregates device data in a cloud service and presents actionable insights through a mobile/web app, enabling operators to schedule loads, curtail excess generation, and participate in grid‑balancing services. By combining load‑balancing, peak‑shaving, smart‑charging, and dynamic power‑regulation algorithms, SMPL One reduces waste, lowers peak‑demand charges, and increases the share of self‑generated renewable energy without manual intervention. The platform also generates compliance reports to help companies meet sustainability standards.
Target Audience
Primary customers are medium‑to‑large enterprises in agriculture, food processing, livestock operations, and commercial facilities that operate multiple high‑consumption assets and seek to reduce energy costs while improving sustainability.
Features
- Real‑time monitoring of individual device consumption with cloud‑based analytics
- Automated load‑balancing and peak‑shaving that shifts or throttles equipment based on price signals and grid constraints
- Smart charging management for electric vehicle fleets to optimize charging times and costs
- Curtailment and “0 on the meter” functionality to maximize use of on‑site renewable generation and avoid excess feed‑in
- Participation in frequency containment reserve (FCR) / automatic frequency restoration reserve (aFRR) markets for additional revenue
- Centralized control via the SMPL One app, accessible from any device for remote configuration and alerts
- Dynamic power‑regulation that continuously adapts to changing energy availability and demand
