EnBW × Enode: Making home energy management simple for every household
EnBW is Germany’s third-largest energy company, serving around 5.5 million customers in a market where one in six households generates its own solar power and one in ten owns an EV. As electrification accelerated, EnBW saw the need for a more unified way to manage energy across the home and mobility.

One experience, built on four capabilities
EnBW set out to simplify energy around seamless connectivity, clear visualization, intelligent optimization, and control when it’s needed. That vision became EnBW Mavi, which brings e-mobility at home and away from home, local consumption and generation, and cost transparency together in one place.
“We want an energy experience that adapts to how people actually live. Enode helps us bring our vision of a cloud-based home energy management system to life by accelerating the development of EnBW Mavi and handling the complexity of device connectivity, so we can focus on delivering an excellent user experience for our customers.”
Supporting that at scale meant connecting a growing and diverse set of EVs, home chargers and inverters without building individual integrations. Enode provides that foundation as a single manufacturer-agnostic integration layer.

Charging that follows prices and the sun
EV drivers see when they charged, what it cost, and how shifting charging times would change their bill. On dynamic tariffs, charging aligns automatically with lower-priced hours; for homes with solar panels, it aligns with expected production instead, raising self-consumption.

Home and public charging in a single view
Connecting EnBW mobility+ to the cloud-based home energy management system brings home and public charging into one consolidated view, including charging outside EnBW’s own public network.
“This unified visualization removes fragmentation and meets the needs of our customers. All available information regarding charging at home and on the road is visible in one place, giving our customers a complete view of their energy use and costs, no matter what brand they drive, further simplifying how energy is understood and managed.”
For EnBW, Enode removes the need to build and maintain dozens of individual integrations, and broadens the range of devices it can support as new ones reach the market.
“We want to help more people participate in the energy transition in the simplest and most customer-friendly way possible, offering them immediate benefits. Our collaboration with Enode enables us to scale across devices and manufacturers and to prepare households for future flexibility services as they mature.”
