Electricity prices can be unpredictable, and standard retail plans often fail to maximise your savings. But what if you could buy energy when prices are low and sell excess power when prices are high—all automatically? That’s precisely what Redx AI and Localvolts offer: a smarter, AI-powered energy management system that makes wholesale pricing work in your favour.
What is Localvolts and How Does It Work?
Localvolts is a wholesale electricity retailer that offers real-time market prices. You can buy power at wholesale rates instead of fixed retail prices. Unlike traditional energy retailers, Localvolts allows you to purchase electricity at the actual market price, which fluctuates every five minutes based on demand and supply.
What is Redx AI, and How Does It Optimise Energy Use?
Redx AI is intelligent software that works seamlessly with your solar battery system to automate energy management. Instead of manually tracking energy prices, Redx AI:
- Monitors real-time market prices to determine the best times to buy or sell power.
- Manages solar and battery storage efficiently, ensuring your home is powered at the lowest possible cost.
- Prevents backflow losses by reducing exports during negative price periods.
- Boosts financial returns by maximising profits from stored solar energy.
