Podium EMS
AI-based energy management software from Wattstor.
Introducing Podium: Wattstor's Intelligent Energy Management Platform
Wattstor’s proprietary technology its platform, Podium. Podium intelligently decides how energy on a site should be generated, stored, consumed or traded, and comprises 3 key elements that seamlessly integrate for a consistent and harmonious on-site experience:
- Cloud-based optimisation engine
- Portal interface
- Edge controller device.
Wattstor’s podium platform ensures end-users need not worry about future market or technology developments. Ongoing projects, such as solar, EV charging points and battery installations across any number of site buildings can be gradually added to the portfolio of distributed energy resources.
Podium's Optimisation Engine
Podium’s cloud-based software encompasses a powerful dynamic optimisation engine. The machine learning algorithms calculate and schedule the most effective use of energy, creating the best ROI based upon:
- Grid constraints
- Dynamic pricing signals
- Load forecasts
- EV charging forecasts
- Site operational parameters
Podium enabled solutions
Microgrid Projects
Wattstor's Podium platform creates energy eco-systems across industrial, commercial, agricultural, public sector and community microgrids.
Dynamic EV Charging
Podium maximises the value that can be derived from EV charging. From adaptive charging to optimised integration of embedded renewable generation and storage, Wattstor's Podium platform reduces costs through wholesale trading, all while maintaining grid capacity.

Solar Load Shifting
The Podium EMS platform uses a series of algorithms to decide the best time to store, use or trade the electricity generated by on-site solar PV.

Explore the Podium portal
The cloud portal is the end-user’s window into their energy activity. From remote monitoring, scheduling, metering data download and savings figures, through to energy source drill-downs, consumption statistics, and alarms.
This element of the platform delivers day-to-day energy data insights.
Edge-controller device hardware
The edge-controller device (ECD) is the tangible, on-site part of Wattstor’s solution that connects to your energy resources and disseminates the automated signals provided by the software. Without this hardware, the software signals cannot be implemented in an effective and timely manner for optimum ROI.
The state-of-the-art hardware is designed for straightforward installation, easy and open asset integration, as well as offline operation for business continuity.
