Today
Today highlights important insights and recommended actions to boost your home’s efficiency on a daily basis.
- Torus Powered Score
With Torus-Powered Score, you can quickly see what percentage of your home’s electricity is coming from renewables and battery storage instead of the utility grid. As well, you can see how much extra energy is being distributed back to your commmunity. A high Torus-Powered Score means you are actively reducing your CO2 emissions, power bill, and assisting your community with clean, renewable energy.
- Energy Forecast
Your personalized Energy Forecast uses AI to predict solar panel production and weather conditions three days in advance, allowing your home to optimize for whatever lies ahead. Our software updates its forecast every thirty minutes, meaning changing conditions will never catch you off guard.
- In-App Notifications
Notifications allow you to review a daily summary of status updates, recommended actions, and insightful reports, all in one place.

Automations
The Torus App’s thoughtful automations empower you to maximize your CO2 reduction, savings, and home energy efficiency. See energy and automation performance in real time.
- EV Charging
Adding a Torus EV Charger to your Torus Station gives you access to powerful integrations regardless of your vehicle's make or model. Automatically charge your EV with renewable energy and easily track added range, CO2 reductions, and savings through the Torus App.
With solar charging, you can keep your EV running on 100% free and clean electricity. Through the Torus App, you can set your EV charger to only use energy generated from your solar, solar and grid, or use any available energy to charge as quickly as possible.
- HVAC & Thermostat
Our ecobee integration boosts your home’s efficiency by managing your HVAC system. When it detects a surplus of renewable energy, your Torus Station can automatically cool your home by 1-2 degrees below the temperature on your smart thermostat. Proactively cooling your home with renewables reduces the need to use your HVAC system at night when clean energy is less abundant.

Torus App
Torus Modes™
Torus Modes automatically calibrate your home’s energy consumption based on weather conditions, the electrical grid status, and your personalized needs.
- Off-Grid
Power outage? Your Torus Station has you covered! If the grid goes down, your Torus Station will switch into Off-Grid Mode and keep your home running with battery storage and renewable energy.
- Storm Watch
When it detects a severe weather event near your home, the Torus Station will automatically top up your home battery and keep it full until the weather event passes, just in case there’s an electrical grid outage.
- Inverter Modes
Inverter modes add another layer of control to your Torus Station by allowing you to prioritize how your system is using and storing energy. Self Consume is your inverter’s default setting and tells your system to use as much solar and battery power as possible before pulling from the grid. Battery Priority directs all excess energy to your battery, enabling you to quickly top up your storage at the ideal time.
