Connect your customers' tariffs to the connected home

Deliver complete, real-time electricity price signals — including energy prices, grid charges, taxes and levies — for any tariff you run, from fixed and time-of-use to dynamic and market-based and local prices. Launch intelligent energy services while leveraging your customers' existing EVs, batteries, heat pumps and solar systems.

Trusted by 50+ utilities

Turn price signals into automated energy optimization

Total price breakdown

Deliver each customer's own all-in price, not a generic market price

Move beyond selling electricity and offer automated energy optimization.

  • Connect any tariff directly to customers' HEMS platforms.

  • Deliver a seamless "one-app" energy experience combining tariffs, billing and device optimization.

  • Position your utility as a digital energy partner instead of a commodity supplier.

  • Increase customer satisfaction through measurable energy savings.

Charge timeline

Unlock household flexibility without controlling a single device

Turn connected homes into flexible energy assets.

  • Shift EV charging, heat pumps and battery storage to lower-cost periods.

  • Reduce peak demand and network congestion.

  • Support balancing groups, flexibility markets and future virtual power plants.

  • Skip device integration and control infrastructure entirely — the price signal does the work.

Energy price forecast

Automate every tariff you already run

Turn your existing portfolio into real, automated customer value.

  • Enable automated optimization for fixed, time-of-use, dynamic and market-based tariffs.

  • Extend automation to local and community prices, not just market-based ones.

  • Help customers benefit from price differences without manual intervention.

  • Differentiate your retail offering with intelligent energy products.

Community energy supply

Turn local and community supply into a price signal

Local generation only changes behaviour if the HEMS can see it.

  • Fold local production status and community allocation directly into the price signal.

  • Show periods of high local supply to the HEMS as low-cost periods.

  • Extend energy community, Mieterstrom and local-tariff products into device-level optimization.

  • Reward local consumption without building a separate signal path.

24 h forecast with device schedule

Give HEMS the forecasts they need to orchestrate

A HEMS can only optimize as far ahead as it can see.

  • Deliver day-ahead and intraday price and weather-based forecasts to HEMS.

  • Let HEMS schedule EV charging, heat pumps and batteries hours ahead.

  • Increase realized customer savings through better-planned optimization.

API tiles (own HEMS / third parties / business customers)

Give customers and partners more flexibility with price signals

Make your electricity price signals available beyond predefined HEMS integrations. For customers who build their own HEMS.

  • Expose the same price signal through an open, documented API.

  • Let technically engaged customers and third-party developers build their own integrations.

  • Serve commercial customers whose energy management system needs a direct price feed.

  • Decide how open it is: HEMS partners only, or any authorized consumer.

SAP / powercloud → exnaton → HEMS

Integrate with your existing ecosystem

Launch quickly without changing your IT landscape.

  • Connect to clever-PV, Solar Manager, Zerofy, Home Assistant and any other HEMS you prefer.

  • Customer-specific prices draw on the tariff data exnaton already holds from tariffing and pre-billing for SAP, powercloud and other core systems.

  • Automatic ingestion of EPEX SPOT day-ahead and intraday market prices.

  • Support multiple HEMS providers simultaneously through one standardized integration.

One price signal, every product

Extend one integration to your whole product portfolio

Create the foundation for tomorrow's energy products.

  • Support EV charging, batteries, heat pumps and PV systems from one platform.

  • Extend the same price signal to energy sharing, prosumer and community products.

  • Add new HEMS partners and use cases as they emerge.

  • Scale from pilot to full customer base.

Frequently asked questions

What types of B2B energy contracts does exnaton support?

exnatonPriceIQ is exnaton's price-signal module for Home Energy Management Systems. It delivers customer-specific electricity prices to HEMS platforms, allowing connected devices to automatically optimize energy consumption based on real-time electricity prices and tariff conditions.

What types of PPAs does exnaton support?

A HEMS receives electricity price signals from the utility and automatically schedules connected assets — such as EV chargers, batteries, heat pumps and solar systems — to operate when electricity is cheapest or most sustainable.

Which pricing mechanisms does exnaton support?

The service delivers a complete, all-in electricity price, including:

  • EPEX SPOT day-ahead and intraday market prices
  • Utility-specific premiums and risk margins
  • Network charges
  • Taxes and levies
  • Utility tariff components
  • Optional local and community prices
  • Optional weather-based forecast data
Can exnaton handle PPA products combined with tranche and spot procurement?

Any tariff a utility runs. It supports fixed tariffs, time-of-use tariffs, dynamic tariffs, market-based pricing, local and community prices, and customer-specific tariff models — each resolved into a single all-in price per customer.

Does exnaton replace our existing billing system?

Yes. Where a customer is part of an energy community or a site with local generation, exnatonPriceIQ can incorporate local supply status and community allocation into the price it sends to the HEMS — so local availability, not only the wholesale market, shapes when devices run.

Can customers see how much electricity comes from PPAs, Tranches and Spotmarket?

Both. In addition to real-time prices, it delivers day-ahead and intraday forecasts for HEMS based on market and weather data, so a HEMS can plan ahead rather than only react.

How long does implementation take?

exnatonPriceIQ integrates with leading HEMS providers such as clever-PV, Solar Manager and Zerofy, and supports Home Assistant for customers running their own open-source setup, through a standardized interface. Additional partners are added as the ecosystem grows.

Can exnaton manage structured energy contracts across multiple customer sites?

Yes. Utilities can optionally expose an open Price API, giving end customers or authorized third-party developers direct access to the same real-time and forecast price data used by HEMS partners.

What business outcomes can utilities expect?

No. The utility only provides electricity price signals. Device optimization remains fully under the customer's HEMS, making implementation simple while preserving customer choice.

Does exnaton support pay-as-produced and pay-as-consumed contracts?

The customer's tariff. exnatonPriceIQ delivers customer-specific all-in prices wherever exnaton is connected to the utility's core system and holds the tariff — which is usually already the case, because exnaton handles the tariffing and pre-billing that sits in front of SAP, powercloud and other billing systems.

Can customers access ESG and renewable sourcing data?

Yes. exnaton integrates with SAP IS-U, SAP S/4HANA Utilities, and other ERP and CRM systems without requiring replacement of existing utility infrastructure.

Does exnaton integrate with SAP IS-U and SAP S/4HANA and any other ERP system?

HEMS integration helps utilities increase customer loyalty, launch more attractive dynamic tariffs, unlock demand-side flexibility, reduce peak demand, and prepare for future flexibility markets.
