Implementing a tenant electricity project - step by step with X2B
What is tenant electricity?
Tenant electricity is electricity that is generated directly in the building (e.g. by photovoltaics) and supplied to the tenants on site – without having to go via the public electricity grid.
So everyone benefits:
Owner: Higher profitability
Tenants Cheaper electricity
All: More energy independence
How a tenant electricity project works - step by step with X2B
Project idea & building inspection
✔️ Site analysis: Is the building suitable for tenant electricity?
✔️ Roof areas for PV, meter structure, technical infrastructure
✔️ Is there already charging infrastructure, storage or heat pumps?
Tip: Existing buildings are often also suitable – X2B supports flexible retrofitting.
Selection and configuration of X2B
Selection of the appropriate X2B hardware (number of meters, device variant, etc.)
✔️ Connection of all meters, devices and interfaces
✔️ Setting up the X2B-EMS: generation, consumption, grid consumption & load management
Highlight: Visualization of the data streams for each residential unit.
Integrate charging stations (optional)
✔️ Integrate AC charging stations directly into the system
✔️ Solar-optimized charging with X2B-EMS
✔️ Access via RFID cards:
Yellow: PV electricity only
Black: mains power also possible
Store is allocated to individual tenants – transparent & fair.
Setting up tenant electricity functions
✔️ Record consumption data for each residential unit (cost center) (meters, charging cards for e-charging stations, etc.)
✔️ Correctly assign producers and energy supply companies
✔️ Export billing data automatically (CSV)
Integrated data exports for billing service providers or energy supply companies possible.
Testing, commissioning & training
✔️ Check all measurement data and consumption
✔️ Activate live visualization
✔️ Training of operator / administrator (if necessary via remote access)
Remote access and remote maintenance possible via the X2B Remote Access software.
Operation & monitoring
✔️ Consumption and generation data in real time
✔️ Dashboards for operators & tenants
✔️ Automatic monthly report
✔️ Early warning in the event of deviations (e.g. PV failure)
