Hive makes the most of the sun,
with solar panels turning sunlight into greener electricity and enabling you to sell excess back to the grid.

Their heat pumps draw warmth from the air and they keep it exactly where you want it.
No smoke, no waste.
Hive's EV charger lets your car charge quietly overnight, recharging while you do too.
Hive brings it all together, heating, charging and solar,
managed from one simple app in a quiet revolution.
