Lifepowr
LIFEPOWR develops FlexiO, an energy management service coordinating solar, batteries and EV charging for households and businesses. It combines local equipment with optimisation software and the MyFlexiO app. The offering seeks to reduce energy costs and enable eligible users to earn from grid balancing, while supporting multiple compatible hardware brands and energy suppliers.

The entries below document published information against the eight assessment criteria. They distinguish stated capabilities from evidence needed for verification. No scores have been assigned.
Demonstrated innovation
LIFEPOWR says optimisation considers tariffs, distribution fees, taxes, losses, battery degradation and capacity charges. This broadens the decision beyond headline wholesale prices alone. [2]
Net savings and operational value
FlexiO combines energy-cost optimisation and balancing revenue, with an app showing savings and earnings. Compare these outcomes with subscription, equipment and battery cycling costs. [1]
Grid capacity and flexibility control
Peak management and grid balancing are part of the offering. Access to balancing income depends on the connected equipment and the relevant programme’s conditions. [1] [6]
Interoperability across equipment brands
Users must check inverter and charger compatibility before connection. A local API exposes measurements and limited load-control parameters; it is not unrestricted device control. [1] [3]
Reliability and recovery
Troubleshooting documentation states an EMS error means FlexiO is not running and that inverter fallback depends on the installation; escalation goes through the installer. [4]
Cybersecurity and data governance
The privacy policy identifies energy-market data sharing, retention and portability rights. It describes mainly EEA processing with specified US transfers protected by contractual safeguards. [5]
Installation, operation and user experience
MyFlexiO shows live and historical flows, savings, battery status and charging. Normal optimisation is automatic, while configuration and troubleshooting involve the installer. [1]
Support, lifecycle terms and portability
Documentation offers support routes and a local API for technical users, but explicitly excludes network-setup support for that API. Confirm service continuity and export needs. [3] [4]
