Battery control & Energy Management System (EMS)
Intelligent control and maximum efficiency for battery systems in combination with PV, heat pumps, charging infrastructure and flexible loads.
Typical challenges
Different storage technologies and manufacturers
Batteries from different suppliers often cannot be controlled uniformly. This results in individual solutions and inefficient operating modes.
No optimisation between generation, storage and loads
Without EMS, storage systems are often not charged or discharged at the optimal moment. This means that potential for increasing self-consumption remains untapped.
Lack of use of dynamic energy prices
Many systems do not respond to variable electricity tariffs. This means that storage capacities and flexible loads are not used economically. As a result, potential savings remain untapped and operating costs rise unnecessarily.
Complex grid requirements and load management
Without precise control, load peaks, reactive power specifications or grid restrictions cannot be reliably complied with.
How the EcoPhi platform supports you
Manufacturer-independent integration of storage systems
The platform centrally integrates battery systems from different manufacturers and enables consistent monitoring and control.
Intelligent EMS for optimised charging and discharging cycles
The EMS automatically controls storage based on generation, load profiles and tariffs – for maximum self-consumption and lower operating costs.
Dynamic price optimisation and flexibility management
The platform takes dynamic electricity prices into account and automatically regulates storage, heat pumps, EV chargers and flexible loads – for maximum cost-effectiveness and grid relief.
Transparent profitability and performance analyses
The platform evaluates savings, self-sufficiency levels and performance indicators in real time. The results can be transferred directly into reports for operators, investors and funding agencies.
Reliable load and grid management
The platform supports specifications such as peak shaving, reactive power control and grid operator requirements to ensure stable and compliant operation.
The All-In-One Platform for Energy Systems
The 4 Foundations of the EcoPhi Plattform
1
Monitoring & Analysis
Monitor charge states, cycles, efficiency and the economic operation of battery systems centrally on one platform. Deviations and inefficiencies become immediately apparent – from individual storage units to large portfolios.
2
Control & Optimization
The EMS dynamically controls charging and discharging processes based on prices, loads and grid requirements. Flexible consumers such as heat pumps or charging points can be integrated to reduce costs and increase yields.
3
Management & Documentation
All data is automatically archived and compiled in standardised reports. In addition, contracts, maintenance logs and documents can be stored securely – so everything remains available in one place.
4
Communication & Collaboration
Involve operators, investors and direct marketers – with individual access, clear role allocation and a transparent database. Comments and notes enable direct collaboration within the system.

FAQ – Battery control & EMS
Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about battery management and EMS. You can find more answers to your questions in our FAQ section. We are also happy to answer your questions in person or by email.
EcoPhi is primarily designed for commercial and industrial systems. There are essentially no fixed size restrictions – the platform scales from smaller storage systems to multi-megawatt plants and complex portfolios.
The platform integrates price information from the electricity exchange and uses it to create automatic schedules for charging and discharging cycles. This means that storage units are charged when tariffs are low and discharged when prices are high, thereby reducing costs and maximising returns.
Yes. All relevant parameters such as load limits, time slots or priorities can be flexibly changed via the platform. Adjustments take effect immediately during operation and can be adapted to new conditions at any time.
Yes. Multiple storage units can be controlled together, as can additional components such as PV systems, heat pumps or charging points. This creates integrated energy management across all consumers and producers.
Yes. The platform offers standardised interfaces to direct marketers and aggregators. This allows battery systems to be flexibly integrated into marketing models and additional revenue to be generated via balancing energy or spot market trading.
