Up to now, the widespread use of renewable energies in the power grid has been limited, because solar and wind energy fluctuate and are not always available. After all, the sun doesn’t shine around the clock.

Energy storage units of various sizes can correct this: with a pool of decentralized stores, CO2-free energy reserves can be created to offset peak loads. In the long run, this can increase the share of renewable energies from the energy supply to 100 percent.

Yoe plays a part in that: with it, owners of private photovoltaic systems can use a large share of the energy they generate. And energy suppliers can communicate with Yoe to stabilize the grid. And by using photovoltaic energy directly at its source, Yoe also helps to avoid transmission loss—for more sun in the grid.
