tado° news at #IFA2024: The energy revolution is underway!

This year again, IFA Berlin is the scene of many innovations, and tado° is of course a regular at the event. For those who don’t know it yet, tado° is the European leader in home energy management. And believe me, they mean business when it comes to making our homes smarter and more energy efficient. Let’s discover all the new features tado° has brought to IFA 2024…

Solar optimization: towards energy self-sufficiency?

First new product unveiled by tado°: a solar optimization solution for heat pumps and electric vehicles. Imagine your home being able to maximize the use of the energy produced by your solar panels without you having to lift a finger: that’s exactly what tado° offers with its new services! Thanks to cutting-edge technology, tado° can now predict the electricity production of your solar panels based on weather forecasts and automatically adjust the operation of your energy-hungry devices, such as heat pumps or electric vehicles.

Basically, your home becomes smarter, reducing your dependence on electricity from traditional suppliers. This is great news, especially when you consider that 51% of French people believe that photovoltaic energy is the future. And guess what? Only 13% of French people already use a heat pump. With tado°'s new solution, these figures are about to change!

The Wireless Smart Thermostat X: Simple, efficient and stylish

But that’s not all! tado° has also unveiled the Wireless Smart Thermostat X, a little technological marvel that enriches their range of smart heating products. Another thermostat? Yes! But this is not just any thermostat: not only is it awarded for its elegant design (goodbye ugly wall boxes!), but it is also ultra-easy to install and use.

The best part? This thermostat is compatible with two types of heating interfaces: relay (on/off) and Opentherm (digital). It can even be used in addition to other smart thermostats in the range for even more precise control of heating room by room. And of course, as is now the “standard”, it is compatible with the Matter protocol via Thread technology, which guarantees optimal network coverage, even in the largest homes, and compatibility with third-party systems.

tado° Heat Pump Optimizer X: Efficiency at your fingertips

If you thought tado° was going to stop there, think again! They also announced improvements to their tado° Heat Pump Optimizer X. Now compatible with Daikin and soon Panasonic appliances, this optimizer allows for even more precise control of energy consumption. Unlike older versions that simply turned the heat pump on or off depending on the temperature, this new version adjusts the operating intensity in real time, which allows for even greater energy savings. Imagine having every room in your home heated optimally, without wasting energy. See? That’s the magic of tado°.

Partnership with Panasonic: a promising alliance

And the surprises don’t stop there! tado° has also announced a strategic partnership with Panasonic. This partnership aims to integrate tado° technologies into Panasonic heat pumps, which promises to further improve the energy efficiency of European homes. Together, they aim to push the boundaries of what it means to live in a truly eco-friendly home. This is a major step forward for European consumers looking to reduce their carbon footprint while saving on their energy bills.

Savings for all (and the planet thanks you)

With all these innovations, tado° is not only making our homes smarter; they are committed to making them greener and more energy efficient. The new products in the tado° X range retain user-favorite features, such as remote control via the mobile app, voice commands with Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant or Apple HomeKit, and smart functions like geolocation to adjust the heating when you are away. The result? Optimized energy consumption, reduced carbon footprint and, the cherry on the cake, savings on energy bills.

tado° continues to prove that they are at the forefront of innovation in the field of home energy management. They transform our homes into real autonomous energy power stations, while helping us reduce our costs and our environmental impact. And this is probably just the beginning!
