MyGrid
ModuleOne Home battery
MyGrid ModuleOne™ was developed to meet the demand for a smart, two-way home battery that is both more financially and practically accessible to consumers. The app makes it easy to operate as a plug-and-play solution that you can take anywhere to be energy independent. Moreover, you get a better understanding of your energy consumption and can save costs by storing energy when it is cheap and using that energy when the price is high.

Challenge
With the MyGrid team, we started exploring how to get more people to participate in the energy transition. During the market research, a few issues emerged that were holding people back from participating. Namely
Costs that are too high.
Lack of space at home for the installations (battery, solar panels ...)
Lack of clear communication about the benefits both financially and ecologically.
We saw these drawbacks especially reflected in the home battery market. Today's home batteries are often very large in size and therefore often have a high capacity and therefore a high price. Due to the large size of the battery, you can often only place them in a garage, basement or outside. This means that you exclude a lot of people who live around smaller living space.
