Energy Smarter — Even Without A Roof
Apartment living shouldn’t lock you out of cheap solar power. With Jousto EMS, you can access better energy pricing through Peer-to-Peer solar, NEM spot market signals, and optional portable storage — without installing rooftop panels.
Already have solar elsewhere? You can route excess value to where you live — beach house → apartment, family home → city unit.
Watch: How apartment energy can work
This quick explainer shows the three practical paths for apartments — even if you can’t install rooftop solar.
Start here: get on a plan that rewards timing
Step 1: Smart meter + time-of-use
A smart meter enables time-of-use pricing. It’s the foundation for apartment savings because it lets you shift usage into cheaper windows (often midday and overnight).
Tip: Once you’re comfortable with ToU timing, it becomes easy to understand P2P and spot market behaviour.
Recommended starter retailer
We often recommend starting with Energy Locals while you learn the timing and tariff basics — then you can progress into more advanced wholesale/P2P models.

Option 1: Send value from one location to another
If you have solar at another property (holiday home, family home, small commercial site), Jousto can help you allocate energy value to where you live — your apartment.
Example: Beach house exports solar during the day → your apartment benefits in the evening.
You can also restrict transfers to specific hours (e.g. evenings only).
Works best when paired with smart meters and a retailer model that supports wholesale/P2P settlement.
Option 2: Buy excess solar from people — not corporations
Jousto is all-in on Peer-to-Peer Energy. When households have excess solar, that energy should flow to people who need it — including apartment dwellers.
- Agree a fair price between buyer and seller.
- Reduce exposure to peak retailer pricing.
- Support your community by buying local excess solar.

Option 3: Use cheap windows + portable storage
Apartments can benefit from low-cost windows (often midday and overnight). Add a portable power station and you can store cheap energy and use it later during expensive periods.
What Jousto EMS does
Jousto EMS helps you understand pricing windows, shift loads, and plan storage so you’re not paying peak rates by default.
Note: Wholesale spot price is one component and does not include network charges.
Portable storage we recommend
If you want a renter/apartment-friendly way to shift energy costs, these are the major players we trust.
EcoFlow
Portable storage + portable solar options — perfect for apartments and balcony use cases.
Best practice: Start with a smart meter + ToU plan, then add portable storage to “time-shift” your usage.
If you want the big leap, add Peer-to-Peer solar access.
Apartments deserve access to cheap energy
Explore Peer-to-Peer trading, learn the timing windows, and start shifting your costs — without rooftop solar.
