AI-Driven Solar Sizing and Flexibility Tools
At AI Energy, we are making solar planning smarter, faster, and more cost-effective. As part of the SEEDS project, we are developing SolarPlanner, an AI-powered platform that:
- Automatically detects rooftops using aerial imagery
- Simulates solar potential
- Optimizes PV + battery systems based on technical and economic factors
Real-World Pilots in Denmark and Slovenia
- Denmark: SolarPlanner helped design a PV + second-life battery system using repurposed Tesla modules, achieving nearly €12,000 in annual savings with a 10-year payback.
- Slovenia: Optimized PV + battery systems for five gas stations, delivering tailored designs with 8–10 year paybacks based on local tariffs and conditions.
Moving Beyond Design – Towards Smart Operations
Our work in SEEDS is now shifting from planning to operation optimization. We are developing advanced control strategies that combine:
- Localized generation and demand forecasts
- Dynamic electricity tariffs
Stochastic optimization methods
These techniques aim to:
-Lower operational costs
-Reduce grid congestion
-Enable end-users to actively participate in emerging flexibility and energy services markets
🌱 The future of solar is intelligent and flexible — and AI is making it happen.
