Clever use of solar power with the Fronius Ohmpilot

How nice would it be to turn the sun’s warmth directly into hot water? Thanks to the Fronius Ohmpilot, you can. Now you can enjoy a warm shower, a relaxing bath, or a cozy warm towel all while increasing the efficiency of your PV system.

With the Fronius Ohmpilot, you can use surplus solar power to generate hot water or heat, therefore increasing your degree of self-consumption. Even the tiniest amounts of excess PV power can be put to good use—right down to the very last watt.


Ohmpilot water heating solution
Highlights
Control of heating elements
The load regulator uses small power surpluses from the PV system to control heating elements in water boilers and buffer storage tanks.
Greater self-consumption
Thanks to the load regulator, you can use the electricity generated on your own roof and thus ensure a self-consumption rate of up to 100%. At the same time, you become less reliant on the public grid.
Taking the load off heating systems
Our heating solution reduces the load on other heating systems and thus increases their service life.

Efficient functions for your hot water supply with PV

The Fronius Ohmpilot converts excess PV power into usable heat by controlling specific loads such as heating elements or heat pumps. Limitless flexibility for systems without an energy storage device. It increases self-consumption and offers flexible hot water functions.

No more cold feet with the Fronius Ohmpilot

“The great thing about the Fronius Ohmpilot is that it regulates the power automatically from 0 to 9 kW. Similar to the Fronius Wattpilot, nothing has to be set manually and everything is controlled in the background. I set a target temperature and the Ohmpilot maintains it during the day.”
