Every 30 minutes
Every 30 minutes, Nova AI decides: buy, use, store or sell.
Nova AI makes the call for your battery, forty-eight times a day: buy energy while it's cheap, use it on site, store it, or sell it into wholesale, flexibility and capacity markets. You change nothing about how you operate — the result is a battery that buys cheap, dodges your most expensive half-hours, and sells when the grid pays best.
The platform
One platform to sweat every energy asset you own.
Energy management.
Connects to your energy assets via API — battery, solar PV, EV charging — with real-time monitoring, analytics and optimisation against tariffs and grid signals.
Virtual power plant.
Orchestrates energy assets into VPPs, enabling participation in flexibility markets for additional income. No extra hardware required.
Market access.
Wholesale markets for arbitrage pricing, plus flexibility and capacity markets — your assets saving more and earning extra revenue.
Compatible assets
What you need to get started.
Battery storage.
A BESS is the foundation — your battery becomes a 24/7 revenue-generating asset, trading energy and responding to grid demand autonomously.
Solar PV.
Combine solar with the battery to unlock maximum returns — Nova AI manages when to store, self-consume or sell your generation for peak profit.
EV chargers.
Integrate EV charging for smart schedules — charging shifted automatically into the cheapest tariff windows.
Don't let your battery sit idle.
Most commercial batteries do one job, then wait. Nova AI trades yours through wholesale, flexibility and capacity markets — so it's earning around the clock, even while the site sleeps.
17:30 · evening peak — run the site on stored energy
What it wins you
The intelligence is the return.
Energy arbitrage.
Buy low, store, and use or sell when prices peak — automatically, against your live tariff.
Peak shaving.
Your most expensive half-hours and red-band charges, carried by the battery instead of the grid.
Grid services.
Virtual power plant ready — flexibility and capacity market revenue from an asset that would otherwise sit idle overnight.
Nothing to watch.
No dashboard duty, no manual switching. Remote monitoring from day one; you see the results in the bill.
