Fronius Smart Meter

Product Brief: Fronius has launched a new accessory for their inverters. The Fronius Smart Meter offers a solution for dynamic feed-in management and energy consu-mption monitoring.

Product Feature: The Fronius Smart Meter is compatible with all Fronius inverters with an integrated Fronius Datamanager 2.0 (RS485 interface for Modbus RTU), which is included in Fronius Galvo and Fronius Primo inverters. The Fronius Datamanager 2.0 can also be added to any Fronius Symo, Fronius IG, IG Plus and IG Plus-A inverter.

Application: An increasing number of grid operators set feed-in limits for grid-connected solar systems. With the Fronius Smart Meter and the inverter’s dynamic power reduction feature, Fronius is now offering a simple solution for dynamic feed-in management. The Fronius Smart Meter measures the ele-ctricity consumption of a building and com-municates in real time with the inverter, which then controls the system’s output power to keep the electricity fed into the grid at or below the feed-in limit.

Benefits: In conjunction with Fronius Solar. web, the Fronius Smart Meter offers a det-ailed overview of energy flows within a home or business. In addition to the solar production data, customers get a detailed visualization of their energy consumption and can optimize their energy usage based on the individual load curve. This gives installers the opportunity to design tailored energy solutions to home- or business-owners and to up-sell to them in the future. For installers, Fronius Solar.web is a lead database for future sales and we can help our installers to grow their business.
