Unlocking the Future of Solar & Storage with Energy-as-a-Service
Updated: Feb 26
Solar energy holds the key to a sustainable future, yet for many households and businesses, the high upfront costs remain a major roadblock. A new generation of Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS) providers is changing that by eliminating financial barriers and offering a more accessible way to adopt solar and battery storage.
From Solar Installer to Energy Provider
Instead of selling solar panels and batteries outright, EaaS providers are offering a fixed-price energy subscription. This covers all electricity consumption, while also including free installation, maintenance, and upgrades for solar and battery systems over 25 years.
This shift turns solar from a one-time hardware investment into a long-term energy service, where customers see immediate savings on their electricity bills while the provider owns and manages the assets.
To maximize the value of their battery fleets, these providers require modern asset management software to reduce costs, unlock new revenue streams, and ensure long-term system performance.
Electryone AI: Intelligent Asset Management
Electryone AI provides the intelligence layer that makes this possible. Our platform integrates seamlessly with thousands of solar and battery installations across brands in minutes via API-based connectivity, eliminating the need for additional hardware.
Once onboarded, providers gain real-time visibility into system performance, enabling proactive monitoring, reduced downtime, and optimal efficiency across their entire fleet.
With our AI-powered solar & battery optimization, batteries across the fleet are autonomously managed in real-time, continuously responding to tariff prices and behaviour forecasts.
The platform intelligently charges batteries when electricity prices are low or negative and exports energy at peak demand, turning every installation into a revenue-generating asset rather than just a backup power source.
Beyond bill savings, EaaS providers can monetize battery flexibility by participating in flexibility markets.
Electryone AI’s Virtual Power Plant (VPP) orchestration engine allows providers to seamlessly trade in multiple flexibility markets, generating an entirely new stream of recurring revenue.
This capability stacks on top of tariff savings, further increasing ROI and accelerating payback periods for their assets.
A Blueprint for the Future of Energy
This shift represents a larger transformation in the energy market—moving from hardware sales to smart energy services. By combining smart energy optimization with flexibility trading, EaaS providers can build a scalable, recurring revenue model while delivering cheaper, cleaner energy to consumers.
