Control via thermostat
We can either control the power of heating & cooling systems directly, or by using a set-level approach via a smart thermostat. Indirect control via the thermostat allows you to ensure that the dynamics of control remain within manufacturer’s intended bounds. This can allay concerns around reduced operating efficiency (sCOP), particularly of heat pumps. We use Enode to connect to thermostats - see their list of support hardware.Integrating with Axle
You can either integrate into the Axle API, or we’ll integrate into an existing cloud API.Telemetry
If we are integrating directly with the heating system we’ll need:- Power
kW - Temperature
°C - Outside temperature
