Technology

The Embion EMS is a unique power manager, which combines extreme power with extreme flexibility making your installation fit for the future. Embion EMS makes it possible to manage and control solar energy, charging stations, heat pumps, battery storage systems and other energy consumers and/or generators.
 

How it works

Based on the available power and your preferences, energy is automatically distributed to the consumers that have priority at that time. External factors, such as the energy price, can be taken into account to make this distribution even more efficient and sustainable. The Embion EMS also offers the ideal solution in case of grid congestion. The inverter(s) can be dynamically limited to minimize feed-in to the grid when more energy is generated than consumed. Thus, supply and demand are better matched. Through an advanced online portal, the installation can be configured and monitored worldwide. This enables end users to accurately track their energy consumption and yields and gives installers the ability to manage systems remotely.

Hardware

The hardware of the Embion EMS provides various connectivity and control options for efficient operation. The system is equipped with multiple RS485 ports (3, 4, 5) for three individual RS485 buses, with optional 120 ohm bus termination via switches (16, 17, 18), ETH ports (6, 7) for network connection, and USB ports (9, 10) for external connectivity. The LCD display (12) provides clear visual feedback, while the two status LEDs (8 and 13) indicate system status. The control buttons (19, 20, 21, 22) make it easy to configure and operate the system directly.

Software

Embion's software is uniquely developed and continuously maintained by our own team. This software provides local readout and control of all connected assets without the need for an Internet connection. This keeps the system functioning at all times, even when the Internet is temporarily unavailable, and allows it to continue to regulate dynamically. Thanks to OTA (Over The Air) software updates, the system automatically stays up-to-date with the latest releases from Embion. Moreover, the system is designed with the highest cybersecurity standards, so you can always be assured of safe and reliable operation.

Independence

Independent

Our EMS can be configured by installers themselves on site or remotely via the web app. No input is required from Embion and can be installed and activated independently.

We are also brand independent: the Embion EMS can connect to many consumers and generators via Modbus to control the devices. Even if no Modbus is present, we can switch the devices on or off by means of an external contact.

All in one

All in one

Embion EMS offers a complete solution with a controller (hardware) and an App for real-time monitoring and control. Embion has one controller for all applications which offers great logistic advantages in the chain.

Last but not least, our solution can be efficiently deployed as primary and secondary EMS in cascade configurations (micro-grid).

Continuity

Continuity

The local storage of basic settings and controls in the Embion EMS guarantees continuity even if the Internet connection is lost.

Even more important: within the license model Embion delivers functional, integration and security upgrades and updates via the cloud. So you are assured of an up-to-date EMS that constantly meets your requirements also for the future. Our license pricing model is based on how the EMS is used. This ensures a good return on investment in every application.
