Abstract

The paper presents the development of an innovative solution based on a smart controller for solar thermal systems. The controller can intelligently optimize all sources and consumers of heating energy in order to maximize the savings. It has an easy to use user interface that allows advanced configuration. The solution consists of solar controllers, other IoT devices and a platform that provides remote control, extended user interface, and a number of different services.
