How ChargeSync works →
For new-build homes

Your home came with solar and a battery. Now make it pay.

New-builds increasingly come with solar and a battery. The trouble is, most just park spare solar on a fixed timer and quietly leave hundreds of pounds a year unclaimed. ChargeSync is the brains that makes the kit your developer fitted actually cut your bills. £10/month, 30 days free, pause anytime.

The problem

The gap

Your solar and battery already store excess solar, but on a fixed schedule they can't react to tomorrow's prices, the weather or your demand. The hidden saving is sitting there, every half-hour.

What ChargeSync does

The fix

Think of ChargeSync as sat-nav for your energy. Each evening it reads tomorrow's prices, the weather over your roof and what your home usually gets through, then re-routes your battery and solar every half hour to keep the bill as low as it'll go. No new kit, no engineer. Your developer fitted the kit and set it to "fine". We set it to clever. Half-hourly optimisation needs a time-of-use tariff to bite, anything from Economy 7 through to a fully half-hourly tariff like Octopus Agile; the finer your tariff's time pricing, the more ChargeSync saves.

Your three worries, answered

Let's get the worries out of the way

🤔

"Isn't it already smart?"

A timer can't see tomorrow's prices, it just runs a fixed rule. Closing that gap, every half-hour, is the whole point of ChargeSync.

🔒

"Will it break my estate deal?"

No. ChargeSync sits on top of whatever tariff you're on, even a "zero bills" or estate deal, and simply plays it smarter. Keep your deal; we just make the zeros work a little harder.

💷

"Only £10, worth it?"

We publish your savings every month. If a month doesn't beat the £10, it pauses, so you only pay once it has already paid for itself.

The savings ladder

Same kit, used progressively smarter

What a home could save each year on top of the solar and battery already fitted, as the same system is used more intelligently. Illustrative estimates for a 10 kWh battery, your figure depends on your home, tariff and usage. The top rung needs a fully flexible half-hourly tariff; most homes land on the middle rungs.

Don’t be fooled: a battery maker may say a system is “optimised”, but a fixed timer can’t react to weather, prices or your demand, so the bigger savings don’t follow.

Illustrative figures for a typical 10 kWh solar-and-battery home on a flexible half-hourly tariff (around 10p off-peak, 24p by day, 40p at peak). What you actually save depends on your home, your tariff and how you use power.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

My home already has solar and a battery, why ChargeSync?
Because the hardware is only half the story. Left on a fixed timer it can't react to prices, weather or your demand. ChargeSync runs it around all three, that's where the hundreds of pounds a year come from.
My manufacturer says my battery is already “optimised”.
With a fixed peak-time timer it can't react to weather, prices or your demand, so the bigger savings don't follow. ChargeSync re-optimises every half-hour against tomorrow's prices.
What if my estate came with a special tariff or “zero bills” deal?
Keep it. ChargeSync is independent, it adds intelligence without locking you to one supplier, and it keeps working when the deal changes or you switch.
