Jousto energy management

Make more of the energy you already have.

A practical path from understanding your solar and battery system to automating it. Start with a free review—no new solar installation required.

Works with a suitable existing solar and battery installation. Hardware and setup, where needed, are purchased separately.

What you bought or exported

No live-reading promises. Your service begins with the information your system can provide.

Start with the basics

Know what your system is doing before changing how it works.

01

Share your system

Connect your existing system data with the Jousto O&M Monitor role in SEMS+.

02

Get a human review

Our team reviews the information and prepares a one-off optimisation assessment.

03

Choose what follows

Keep monitoring, or arrange a separate automation setup if it's right for your home.

Services

Start free. Add only what you need.

Service choices are independent of buying a new solar system from Jousto. Equipment and any required setup are quoted or purchased separately.

Included

Monitoring

Manual system review through SEMS+. Share access with Jousto's O&M Monitor role so our team can review the data.

Free

Monitoring access and review. Availability of data depends on your system.

One-off

Optimisation review

A one-off look at your system's performance and practical opportunities, typically around three months after monitoring begins.

Once-off review after enough operating history is available.

GoodWe DIFM service

A guided Home Assistant setup for supported hardware and LocalVolts integration. Hours shown are reporting periods—not hourly automation.

$599incl. GST

One-off setup service. Any hardware is purchased separately.

  • Guided configuration and connection
  • No promise of a particular financial result

Home Assistant Green

A compatible Home Assistant device, when required, is purchased separately from setup.

$299incl. GST

Designed for transparency

Useful information. Clear boundaries.

Energy comparisons are estimates, not bills or guaranteed savings. Where shown, the AGL comparison uses an energy-only standing time-of-use baseline for South Australia effective 1 July 2026; fixed charges are excluded.

Your credentials stay yours

Jousto will never ask for your LocalVolts or home automation credentials in a customer form. You enter LocalVolts credentials in Home Assistant during setup.

An existing system is welcome

You can enquire about Jousto EMS with a suitable system already installed; a new solar purchase is not required.

Your personal account

Start with free monitoring.

Your Jousto account keeps your EMS service choices and reports alongside any Jousto solar journey. Sign in or create an account first; we'll use your verified account email.

A valid SEMS+ system login and accessible plant are needed for manual monitoring. Never send passwords through a Jousto form.

Free to start

Create your EMS account after sign-in.

Add your name and phone with your consent. Monitoring starts as a human review when your system information is available.

Both items are ordered separately. Starting free monitoring does not order hardware or a service. Any hardware delivery charges are confirmed on your invoice.
