In daily rush, this can be easy to forget, which is why automatic control is becoming more popular.<\/p><p>Modern washing machines, dryers, and dishwashers feature built-in start timers. This allows you to load them in the evening, and they will start automatically at noon, when your panels are producing plenty of power. <strong>As has been noted<\/strong>, many TVs and gaming consoles also come with eco-modes that reduce standby consumption.<\/p><p>Smart plugs and home automation are gaining traction as well.

Similarly, heat pumps can heat domestic water during the day. <strong>As an illustration<\/strong>, a charged water tank in the afternoon can cover your evening and night needs, while boosting self-consumption.<\/p><p>Charging an electric car offers huge potential savings. Even a few hours of charging at midday can absorb a large share of your solar production. <strong>At the same time<\/strong>, it is worth charging e-bikes, scooters, and laptops during the day.
