How exactly does Dynamic Assistant and the “Tarif data usage” affect my system?
Dynamic Assistant in detail
The Dynamic Assistant subscription enables the “Tariff Data Usage” optimization feature. Once you subscribe and add your tariff details to ViCare, the optimization automatically starts working in the background - no additional manual activation is needed.
Here’s how it impacts your system:
If you have a heat pump:
- The system adjusts heating operation based on electricity prices, meaning your heat pump runs more when energy is cheap and less when it's expensive.
- Despite these optimizations, your home’s comfort remains unchanged - the system ensures minimal temperature fluctuations.
If you have a battery storage system:
- In addition to storing solar energy, the battery can also charge from the grid when electricity prices are low, maximizing cost savings.
- This allows you to store cheap electricity and use it later when prices are high, reducing your overall grid consumption costs.
