The Cotan ecosystem

Your battery system is charged by solar during the day, when solar panels are producing more electricity than the property is consuming. When the sun rises, solar begins powering your property. When additional power is required for the building, it can pull from the utility grid. The battery system then stores that energy until the home needs it, such as when solar is no longer producing at night. When the sun comes out the next day, solar recharges the battery system so you have a cycle of clean, renewable energy.

How to monetize solar power

Solar home and building owners have the option to integrate revenue-grade energy metering. Providing key security and financial benefits. Accurately monitor your solar production and energy consumption of the property for a precise, real-time insight to your energy production. Claim credit for clean energy incentives and be ready to join future power sharing initiatives.
