Energiekonzepte Deutschland (EKD): Energy self-sufficiency for private households

Energiekonzepte Deutschland – EKD for short – stands for the transition to an independent, self-determined energy supply. The aim is to relieve households of rising electricity costs and enable a self-sufficient supply. To this end, EKD develops holistic systems in which photovoltaic systems, storage, heat pumps, and energy management work together seamlessly. The concept goes beyond the installation of individual components: EKD networks all energy sectors in the home to form an intelligent overall system. This means that electricity is used when it is generated – or stored when there is a surplus. The result is a household that covers most of its own energy needs, combining efficiency, comfort, and sustainability.

Digital planning with 3D models: Precise simulation of every building

Before a system is created, EKD analyzes the conditions digitally. Based on detailed elevation data, an exact 3D model of each house is created – including roof shape, chimneys, shading, and surrounding vegetation. These digital building models allow for a realistic simulation of solar radiation and expected energy yields. By combining this with weather data from the German Weather Service, EKD can show the actual performance of a photovoltaic system during the initial consultation. Within a few minutes, a digital image of the building is created that realistically depicts economic efficiency, self-consumption, and amortization. This makes planning transparent and comprehensible—a clear advantage over blanket estimates.

EKD systems: Networked technology for maximum efficiency

Intelligent energy management is at the heart of every project. Photovoltaics, storage, heat pumps, heating elements, and wall boxes are linked together so that the solar power generated flows specifically to where it is needed. The system reacts automatically to consumption profiles and weather conditions and uses electricity primarily in the home. Even in the winter months, the supply remains stable. EKD relies on dynamic electricity tariffs and can charge storage units with cheap electricity from the market when the sun is not shining. This results in systems that achieve almost complete self-sufficiency throughout the year – technically reliable and economically smart.

Storage technology with silicon carbide technology for 12,000 charging cycles

With its new storage system, EKD presents one of the most advanced solutions on the market. The silicon carbide semiconductors used in the system, which are also used in high-performance electric vehicles, ensure extremely efficient charging and discharging processes. Energy losses are minimized and service life is maximized. With over 12,000 guaranteed charging cycles and a service life of ten years, EKD is setting new standards in durability and quality. Control is handled by a specially developed management system with server locations in Germany – managed by the company's own IT department. Data security, stability, and short response times are the top priorities.

Energy concepts Germany at infa: Innovation and consulting

At infa, EKD is presenting its latest storage solutions, revised modules, and the further development of its management system. The trade fair appearance stands for technological innovation, but also for customer proximity. The company shows how modern building services engineering leads to true energy independence – individually planned, digitally controlled, and efficient in the long term. The trade fair also serves as a platform for dialogue: EKD uses it to talk to interested parties, advise existing customers, and make the topics of sustainability, cost-effectiveness, and independence tangible.

EKD brings energy self-sufficiency into everyday life

Energiekonzepte Deutschland proves that energy self-sufficiency is no longer a topic for the future, but can be realized today. With state-of-the-art technology, intelligent control, and sophisticated system integration, a model is created that reduces electricity costs and offers security of supply. EKD combines technology, efficiency, and trust—and turns energy consumers into independent producers. A clear signal of how the private energy transition works in practice.
