In September 2026, Zendure and Joybuy announced a joint venture to make clean AI-based energy storage easily accessible to German homes. In this collaboration, Joybuy will contribute its SolarFlow 2400 AC storage bundle on its German platform, with provisions for same-day and next-day delivery.

This joint venture brings together plug-in, retrofit-ready home battery technology from Zendure and a retail platform and a self-operational logistics ecosystem by Joybuy. Joybuy offers a comprehensive platform, with products from prominent global, European, and regional companies, available in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, France, Belgium, and Luxembourg. This partnership resolves 2 significant obstacles in retrofitting current solar systems: the complexity of storage installation and long delivery durations.

The core of the announcement is the SolarFlow 2400 AC, which is an AC-coupled retrofit system provided by Zendure for houses that already have a rooftop PV system. It enables the use of battery storage that does not require any DC rewiring, has an easy installation process, and can be used with prominent inverter brands that have been conventionally fitted on European roofs, such as SMA, Huawei, Fronius, Enphase, SolarEdge, and Sungrow. It offers 2,400 Watt AC input and output and a maximum of 90 percent round-trip efficiency. It stores excess unused solar energy during the day and releases it in the evening.

Solarflow 2,400 AC functions on the HEMS 2.0 platform of Zendure and the ZENKI AI Energy Agent, which allows real-time optimization of charging and discharging based on home usage, solar generation, and current electricity rates. The dynamic electricity tariff, which is based on EPEX SPOT wholesale costs, when complemented by ZenWave, can automatically charge when power is at its lowest price and draw power from the battery when grid electricity rates are high.

Impact on the Energy and Power Industry

According to Precedence Research, the development of AI-based home energy storage is expected to propel the energy and power industry towards renewable energy. This system optimizes the power costs of a home by using and storing solar energy and drawing power from the grid when the rates are low. This will encourage German people to adopt this system, as energy logistics in Europe have been disrupted in the last few years due to regional conflicts across the world.

Oceanic freight transport schedules of crude oil to Europe have become erratic; thus, they need to find reliable alternatives that can cater to their routine energy needs. AI-based home energy storage is an intelligent system that powers homes using grid and solar power while optimizing costs.

Impact on the Green Power Market

The global green power market size accounted for USD 75.26 billion in 2025, and is anticipated to hit around USD 84.06 billion by 2026, and is predicted to reach around USD 212.08 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 10.92% from 2026 to 2035.

According to Precedence Research, the introduction of AI-powered home energy storage is expected to boost the green power market, as it resolves some key challenges faced by people who use solar energy in their homes, which are:

People need to manually change which source is powering their homes, is it solar or grid electricity- which can be arduous at night when everyone sleeps. The AI-based system automatically switches between sources based on availability.

  • It can store solar energy while simultaneously using grid electricity as the power source if the rates are low, thus helping families to keep their energy bills in check.
  • These advanced features will encourage people to adopt renewable energy in order to benefit from stable and affordable energy.

Impact on the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Market

The global Artificial Intelligence (AI) Market size was USD 757.58 billion in 2025, is calculated at USD 900.00 billion in 2026, and is expected to reach around USD 4,216.29 billion by 2035, expanding at a CAGR of 18.73% from 2026 to 2035.

According to Precedence Research, the launch of AI-based home energy storage is expected to positively impact the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Market. This solution boosts the use of AI to optimize the source and amount of energy usage. It presents a new range of applications for automation technologies to be used for real-world tasks. Automation is gradually being adopted in physical systems, rather than just in digital platforms. This growth will only increase in the upcoming years as solar energy is being rapidly adopted across the world.
