AgeVolt for family homes – complete home charging from wallbox to e-roaming
Do you want to charge your electric car cheaply from photovoltaics, reimburse your employer for business kilometers and keep track of every kWh – at home, at the cottage and at public stations? With the MyAgeVolt platform, you can connect your home wallbox, smart cable with metering and e-roaming into one account. Charging is controlled according to household consumption and surpluses from the panels, statistics are prepared for company accounting and when the station is free, you can make it available to neighbors or visitors with one click and earn money on the shared AgeVolt network.
Problem
- Expensive electricity bill - wall-plug charging does not use surplus photovoltaics or cheap night-time electricity.
- Company kilometers without reimbursement - the employer wants accurate kWh, but there is no smart metering at home.
- No centralized records - a separate app for home, another for public DC, another for a corporate account.
- Limited power consumption of a family home - if the oven or heat pump is turned on, the circuit breaker trips and charging is interrupted.
- It doesn't earn a penny - when the building is vacant, it can't simply be shared with neighbors or visitors and recoup some of the costs.
Possible consequences
Without a smart solution, there is a risk that home charging will not bring the expected savings . Although the owner fills up with "cheaper" electricity, without a connection to photovoltaics and dynamic tariffs, he ends up with a worse price than he could have. Moreover, he does not have accurate measurements for the company, so his employer reimburses him for business kilometers according to a statistical flat rate - almost double the actual costs. If he still has to use various cards and applications while traveling, he gradually loses track of where he paid how much and whether electromobility is even worth it. As a result, the potential of EVs is not fully utilized, the motivation to switch to electricity decreases, and the family budget suffers instead of benefiting.
Solution
AgeVolt Home transforms charging in a family home into a full-fledged energy service. The basis is a smart wallbox with built-in certified measurement, which is directly connected to your electricity meter, photovoltaics and dynamic supplier tariffs via MyAgeVolt Cloud . The wallbox continuously monitors the immediate consumption of the household: when the oven or heat pump is on, it automatically reduces the power to prevent the circuit breaker from tripping; when there is a surplus from the panels on the roof, it increases the current and charges completely free of charge from the sun . All data – time, energy, price – is saved in the account in real time, so you always know how many kWh actually cost just a few cents and how much you took from the grid.
On the road, you will receive a Smart Cable Charger - a portable cable with a MID meter and NFC identification. You can use it to charge your company car from a regular 230 V socket anywhere at a cottage, in a guesthouse or with relatives, and the cable will immediately send the record to the cloud. The employer will then pay for the exact kilowatt hours consumed , not a flat rate double overestimated by the statistical office. Transactions from public networks also converge in the same interface thanks to e-roaming, so business, private and external charging are combined into one PDF report ready for accounting.
When you leave on your bike in the evening and a space in front of the garage remains free, you open the charger in the app with a single gesture. The station appears on the AgeVolt map, the neighbor pays by card or Apple Pay, the commission is symbolic and the rest comes directly to your account . The home wallbox thus turns from a passive appliance into a micro-source of income, which helps to repay the investment faster than typical solar panels.
The entire ecosystem is completed by the Home Energy Meter – a small module in the switchboard that monitors the max. current on the main circuit breaker – and an optional GPS Tracker in the car, so you can also keep track of your exact consumption per 100 km and automatically calculated CO₂ savings. All devices are ordered as plug-and-play; installation usually takes less than two hours, you activate the cloud account online and there is no obligation – when you stop charging, the SaaS fee drops to zero.
This coordinated charging is truly profitable, sustainable and meaningful : it uses surpluses at home, keeps costs transparent on the road and can even make money when capacity is available. Thanks to one platform and one app, you get the most out of your electric car without Excel, spreadsheets and tripped circuit breakers - simply press "connect" and AgeVolt will take care of the rest.
