Jousto for Shops: Smarter Energy, Tailored for Your Business.
Shops come in all shapes and sizes, and Jousto is here to ensure energy efficiency for every kind. Whether you’re a pizza bar running late nights or a boutique operating during daylight hours, Jousto helps you save by automating energy usage, leveraging low-price periods, and avoiding peak prices with smart solutions like batteries and portable power stations.

Running a shop means balancing customer needs, operational hours, and energy costs. Jousto is designed to adapt to your schedule and deliver tailored energy-saving solutions.
For shops open late, such as pizza bars, Jousto ensures batteries charge during the cheapest energy hours—sometimes even negative price events—so you can rely on stored energy during peak evening hours.
For daytime shops, Jousto maximises savings by taking full advantage of the solar sponge period when energy is most affordable.
Portable power stations and smaller batteries can seamlessly power operations beyond daylight hours, keeping costs low and efficiency high.
