Weather-aware
Anticipate how much solar energy tomorrow may deliver, rather than relying on yesterday's pattern.
Independent home energy intelligence
A smarter battery.
A brighter tomorrow.
Independent battery management for smarter savings, battery care and home-specific automation.
Seeing tomorrow. For homeowners, manufacturers and installers.
✓ Customer-aligned optimisation. No retailer affiliation required.

From energy retailers and manufacturers.
Home-specific
Household data used only to optimise for the specific customer.
Battery care
Optimised automation without unnecessary stress.
01 / Why Metis
Your battery is smart.
Its plan can be smarter.
A battery doesn't automatically know tomorrow's electricity prices, weather or household demand. Metis brings those signals together to make each day count.
01
Independent from your energy retailer and battery manufacturer.
02
Uses your tariff, weather forecast and home-specific learning to plan battery use.
03
Intelligent automation for compatible, appropriately sized systems.
04
Balanced optimisation designed to avoid extra battery stress versus a smart seasonal static plan.
02 / Why this service exists
A battery's value depends on how you manage it.
Default operation can miss opportunities—or cycle the battery when the potential saving is too small to justify it.
Tariff-aware
Respond to low-cost and expensive electricity windows under an ordinary time-of-use tariff.
Home-specific
Learn from the information you choose to share, only to optimise for your own home.
03 / Simple, transparent process
From assessment to evidence.
Five straightforward steps. You authorise management of your battery, and you can choose to leave Metis at any time.

04 / Balanced battery optimisation
Tomorrow's plan, not yesterday's routine.
Metis compares both electricity savings and battery stress against the same smart seasonal static baseline.
Your reference point
Smart seasonal
static plan
Repeats a simple, well-chosen plan for the season. Easy to understand and a fair benchmark.
Example winter plan
Hold a reserve overnight, charge from solar when available and discharge through the evening peak.
The Metis approach
Daily Balanced
optimisation
Adapts to tomorrow's tariff, weather and household demand. Designed to avoid added stress versus the baseline.
Example tomorrow
Cloudy afternoon, costly evening: use cheap overnight power, preserve energy for the peak and avoid low-value daytime cycling.
What gets measured?
Electricity savings, Battery Stress Index (BSI) evidence against the seasonal baseline, and fees paid. Continue Balanced optimisation—or return to the baseline.
05 / Battery stewardship
Better value. Without needless wear.
The Battery Stress Index is intended to help make battery care visible—not just electricity bill savings.
Daily BSI: compares battery stress with your smart seasonal static plan. Lower is better.
A safeguard: designed to adjust the schedule or fall back to the baseline if accumulated stress remains higher.
Monthly value: see estimated savings against the baseline alongside fees paid.
BSI is an engineering indicator of relative stress, not a quantified guarantee of longer battery life. Availability of features depends on the system integration and product rollout.
Balanced by design
