Solar surplus charging
Local inverter readings are posted securely, then the controller calculates available charging amps from PV watts, house buffer, voltage, and amp steps.
Solar-aware EV charging control
Charge your EV from the watts your home is already making. GlintEV watches solar production, home buffers, vehicle limits, and charger controls so charging can follow the day instead of fighting it.
What it does
GlintEV is built for homes where charging should be responsive: use more current when production is high, pull back when the house needs power, and pause safely when solar data goes stale.
Local inverter readings are posted securely, then the controller calculates available charging amps from PV watts, house buffer, voltage, and amp steps.
Use the vehicle API where supported, or control a smart charger/EVSE when that is the better path for predictable charging behavior.
Homes without solar can still set charge caps, schedules, and fallback policies for calmer overnight or utility-aware charging.
How it works
A small local script polls an inverter or meter that only exists on the home network.
Only fresh production readings are uploaded with a site key and secret.
GlintEV checks house buffer, min/max amps, stale data windows, and charge mode.
The controller sends a vehicle or charger command and records what it did.
Prototype-ready
The data model supports multiple users, sites, optional solar sources, multiple vehicles, provider accounts, and different control targets. That keeps today’s Rivian/Fronius prototype aligned with the service you want to offer later.
