[Munich, Germany] - The role of home energy storage systems is undergoing a fundamental shift.They are no longer just backup heroes for power outages but are evolving into intelligent assets that operate autonomously and deliver ongoing economic benefits.Recently launched by Batterlution, the PowerGo series AC plug-in battery storage system is a key driver of this transformation.
It leverages three core strengths - flexible charge/discharge scheduling based on dynamic pricing, preset automation, and effortless, plug-and-play installation - to upgrade any ordinary home into an efficient "virtual power plant."

A core advantage of the PowerGo series is its support for flexible scheduling based on dynamic electricity prices.
Users can easily preset charge and discharge periods within the companion app according to their local grid's TOU policy.For example, charging can be scheduled during low-cost "off-peak" hours like midnight to early morning, while discharging is set for high-cost "peak" hours such as the evening electricity rush.Once configured, the system operates fully automatically based on this preset schedule - storing energy when it's cheap and powering the home when it's expensive - minimizing electricity drawn from the grid during high-rate periods and significantly reducing monthly bills. "The design philosophy behind PowerGo is to make energy management simple and effective," explained a Batterlution product manager.
"Users don't need specialized knowledge.With intuitive timing setup, the system becomes a reliable 'energy butler,' automatically saving you money." Open Connectivity: Enabling Smart Management This preset automation is powered by the device's robust connectivity.PowerGo natively supports WiFi and Ethernet connections and provides industry-standard MQTT API interfaces. This allows users to remotely manage and monitor charge/discharge strategies via a mobile app.
Furthermore, the open communication interface enables integration with energy monitors like the Shelly EM, paving the way for potential future advanced energy management applications and ensuring the product's long-term value within the smart home ecosystem. Simplified Installation: Advanced Energy Management Made Accessible Typically, implementing such intelligent charge/discharge management requires professional and complex installation.The PowerGo series revolutionizes this aspect. Its "plug-and-play" concept means users don't need to hire an electrician for complicated wiring.Simply plug the device into a standard power outlet and connect it to the AC side of an existing solar system - with deployment taking just minutes.
This incredibly simple installation makes accessing the economic benefits of smart storage as easy as using a common household appliance.
Conclusion
The arrival of the Batterlution PowerGo series signals a shift for home storage from a passive hardware component to an active, cost-saving intelligent platform.By combining dynamic price-based scheduling, preset automation, and unprecedented installation ease, it not only saves users money on their bills but also empowers them with direct control over their energy use.In the future, as thousands of PowerGo-equipped homes connect, they could collectively form a decentralized network that supports grid stability and accelerates renewable energy adoption.
