Energiekonzepte Deutschland
An energy manager that reacts to the price of power.
AMPERE.IQ connects PV, storage, heat pump and wallbox into one system and automatically shifts consumption into the cheapest quarter-hours of the day. Lipsia Digital designed and built the IoT cloud backend and the native app.

02Starting point & goal
From selling assets to a digital product.
Energiekonzepte Deutschland sells and installs energy assets for private households. Without an own digital product the customer relationship ends with installation, and components from different manufacturers work side by side instead of together. The goal was a system in which a new device generation does not trigger a new project.
- Reliably connect components from different manufacturers
- Keep states and readings robust at quarter-hour resolution
- Control consumption ahead of time and explainably
- Make market prices available as a control variable
- Give customers a product they can operate without training
03Price signal
Price becomes a control variable.
In its day-ahead auction the EPEX SPOT exchange sets a price for every quarter-hour of the next day. With plenty of solar and wind power and low demand, prices fall sharply, sometimes to zero or below. AMPERE.IQ charges the storage in exactly these windows.
EPEX SPOT Day Ahead
Response
0 ct
On sunny days with low demand, negative exchange prices are not unusual.
Schematic price curve · no market data, no customer values
Compatible with dynamic tariffs
Since 2025 every German electricity supplier must offer a dynamic tariff to households with a smart metering system (§ 41a EnWG). AMPERE.IQ works with tariffs that follow the exchange price.

No smart metering system, no dynamic tariff. Only with one does price-based control pay off.
