No. You don't need to live in a single-family home either. The service of Floating Ground is designed for any home, including apartment blocks. All that is required is that you have space for a conventional battery of residential usage, and that you are subscribed to an electricity provider that offers time-of-use variable tariffs. We can help you find the right provider if you do not have one yet. And if you have space for solar panel installation, on the balcony or beneath the windows, even better.

At Level 2 of Floating Ground's service, an standard installation, with a battery and solar panels in a price range of a couple thousand euros, is capable of reducing the yearly bill by up to 40%. This means it is possible to recover the money invested after less than 2 years, down from the average 8 years payback period of traditional systems with an equivalent energy capacity.

Yes. Level 1 of Floating Ground's service is designed for those who have no space at home for solar panels, but want to take control over their energy bill, by managing the charge/discharge of a battery for residential use. Having solar panels, on the balcony or beneath the windows, only makes things even better.

Yes. Not all of the devices available on the market, but we support several brands and models. Feel free to get in touch and we will gladly clarify if your existing setup is covered by Level 1 or Level 2 of Floating Ground's service.

No. If you already have a battery installation, Floating Ground's service will not require additional changes. Level 1 and Level 2 of Floating Ground's service are both designed to optimize your energy via a device that can be plugged to any power socket, just like you would plug any other home appliance.

Huge. Energy demand is on the rise and electricity companies struggle to keep up, sometimes resorting to non-renewable sources to generate energy at peak hours. For perspective, just in 2023 alone, Germany, a country with one of the biggest heavy industry sectors in Europe, generated upwards of 37% of its energy from coal, natural gas and oil. By optimizing energy storage at home and taking control of your energy bill, you become an active part of the solution, reducing the need for fossil fuels and even providing your surplus energy to the grid when it is needed.

Unlike recently released AI models for generalized text and image generation, Floating Ground's AI models don't need big server farms nor heavy computation. They are lightweight and specialize in mirroring your consumption patterns, combining them with current energy prices, local weather data, your battery capacity and power production, to allow you to save money and use your energy efficiently!
