Choose between Easy and Flow

Aira provides two smart tariffs designed to seamlessly supercharge your solar savings.

For predictability, there’s Aira Solar Easy. And, exclusive to homes with battery storage, there’s Aira Solar Export Flow.

Aira Solar Export Easy

Hassle-free. Hands-free. Stress-free. This intelligent tariff sells your excess solar energy back to the grid at a price set by Octopus Energy. All without you having lift a finger. 

How does it work? As soon as you generate solar energy you don’t use, your system automatically sells it to the grid. Have battery storage? Your system will sell energy once it’s full. It’s that easy.

Aira Solar Export Flow

Pairing your solar with a battery is smart. Maximising how much you earn from selling your excess solar? That’s a no-brainer. ​

With Aira Solar Export Flow, your system intelligently sells solar energy when wholesale prices are at their peak and stores energy when prices dip. Supercharging your solar savings while seamlessly powering your home and heat pump.​

It quite literally pays to go with the flow and let the tariff be your savvy-solar-seller. But, if you want to take control, you can decide when to store or sell energy yourself through your battery app.
