What is the Solar iBoost

The Solar iboost is an immersion diverter, that allows you to enjoy free hot water powered by your Solar Panels. Cutting the cost of your water heating, and reducing the strain on your boiler. By installing a Solar iBoost+ you will be simply maximising your use of free solar energy generation by your solar panels. Making your home more green.

How does the Solar iBoost work?

Most domestic Solar PV systems will generate more energy during the day than in demand. Once your solar batteries are full, this surplus energy will have no where else to go but back to the National Grid. Resulting in green energy waste for your household. However, by installing a Solar iBoost+ this process changes. Instead of the surplus energy being exported back to the Grid, it is instead used to heat your water supply. The Solar iBoost+ is made up of 2 parts: the Solar iBoost+ Controller and a ‘Sender’ which communicate to each other wirelessly.

The Sender is clamped to your electricity meter. It monitors the electricity being generated by your solar PV system and the amount of electricity you are using. This information is then sent to the Solar iBoost+.

When the Solar iBoost+ receives information that you are generating 100W more energy than you’re using, it automatically sends the surplus solar energy to power your immersion heater. The Solar iBoost+ automatically adjusts the amount of power going to your immersion heater depending on your levels of excess energy. The Solar iBoost controller is usually installed in an airing cupboard adjacent to your hot water tank.

This excess energy then heats up your water during the day according to the immersion heater’s maximum thermostat’s setting.

  1. Does your home generate excess renewable energy of at least 100W a day?
  2. Is your immersion heater 3kW or less?
  3. Is there less than 30m between your hot water tank and electricity meter?

Installing a Solar iBoost+ will not impact your Feed-In-Tariff payments. This is because the energy suppliers do not know exactly how much energy you are exporting but pay on an estimate at around 50% of your system’s generation.
