Stiebel Eltron and Solarwatt enter new UK collaboration

A UK-first collaboration between Stiebel Eltron UK and Solarwatt UK & Ireland is set to drive forward renewable energy powered homes across the UK, a statement said.

Combining Stiebel Eltron’s heat pump systems with Solarwatt’s solar panel technology, battery storage solutions, and Manager flex energy management system, the two companies will create a single renewable energy package.

“The combination will revolutionise the adoption of sustainable technologies across the country’s homes by providing a comprehensive, end-to-end solution for renewable energy,” Mark McManus, pictured, Stiebel Eltron managing director, said.

At the heart of the collaboration is Stiebel Eltron’s EM Trend and Solarwatt’s advanced Manager flex, with both components optimising the system and supporting energy storage, a statement added.

The EM Trend provides optimised use of solar power to operate heat pumps and delivers efficient use of real energy surplus from the PV system. Meanwhile, the EM Trend will work alongside the Manager flex to look ahead at weather forecasts and will apply dynamic adjustments in real time.

For example, where cold weather is predicted the EM Trend will store more heat in the buffer and hot water tanks to maximise efficiency and response times, helping to lower heating and hot water preparation costs by using solar power to do this.

Mark added: “Delivering renewable energy solutions is at the heart of what we do at STIEBEL ELTRON, and this partnership represents a significant milestone on the journey towards sustainable, green housing across the UK.

“Combining Solarwatt’s revolutionary solar technology with our heat pumps is a unique proposition to the UK market, offering an innovative, end-to-end energy solution which will power Britain’s homes.

“With their strong track record, partnering with Solarwatt was a no-brainer and we’re excited to drive the adoption of renewable heating technologies together. For anyone interested in a complete energy system that will help them save carbon emissions and reduce costs, please get in touch.”
