Hardware is only half the story.
Panels generate. Batteries store. But value is created in the timing — charging when power is cheap, exporting when it's scarce, and coordinating thousands of homes so the grid pays for the flexibility.
That coordination layer is what turns unused energy into measurable earnings, and it's included in every optimised 1Sun service.
