Packages — which features belong to which subscription
This page describes the packages as decided on 2 September 2026. It is published once the packages are active and the pricing page on energyrevolution.be carries the same text.
The Smart EMS platform (OLU) has three paid packages and a free basic version. Prices are per month, VAT included, and cancellable monthly.
| Package | Price | In one sentence |
|---|---|---|
| Free | € 0 | Watch: your live energy flows and the overview chart. |
| Monitoring | € 6 / month | Watch and look back: full history, reports and the monthly e-mail. |
| Light | € 12 / month | Control it yourself: steer your charger, battery and relays manually. |
| Full | € 25 / month | Optimise automatically: smart charging, forecasts, dynamic tariffs, savings in euro and the energy coach without limit. |
| Vehicle link (add-on) | € 6 / month | With Light or Full: connect your car through Smartcar for battery level and range. |
You choose or change your package through Energy Revolution. After a change it can take up to fifteen minutes before the portal shows the new features.
Always included — in every package, including Free
These never stop, whatever package you have:
- Safety: your battery's protection rules (minimum reserve, safe charge limits), the capacity-peak cap, the stop at negative prices and your charger's phase protection stay active at all times.
- Firmware updates of the device in your meter cabinet. Updates are never tied to a package.
- Using your solar surplus: the basic behaviour — own solar power first, the surplus into your battery, charger in Solar+minimum — keeps working.
- Failure notifications: e-mail (and SMS where configured) on communication errors with the meter, inverter or charger, and on grid outages.
- The live dashboard with your energy flows of this moment.

What changes when you move to a lower package
Nothing is ever switched off without an e-mail telling you beforehand.
| Move | What stops | What stays |
|---|---|---|
| Full → Light | Charging plans pause, Smart charging and Max price fall back to Solar+minimum, the battery only follows the solar surplus again. The Saved figure stops updating. | All manual control, the vehicle link (add-on), history, reports, energy coach (15 questions a day). |
| Light → Monitoring | Manual charging modes fall back to Solar+minimum, the battery to its automatic basic behaviour, relays to manual. | Watching and looking back, reports, monthly e-mail. Stopping (Don't charge, relay OFF) is always possible. |
| Monitoring → Free | Day/week/month/year views, reports, the energy coach and history older than 12 months disappear from the portal. Your data is kept: after an upgrade you see everything again. | Live dashboard, overview chart, CSV export, Simulation. |
