ENERGY MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS
THE HUB functions like a traffic cop, determining which power source to accept. This may include energy from solar panels, a generator backup, smart panels or breakers, the main panel, the grid, or even your electric vehicle. It also decides where to send that power, whether to charge a battery, supply your main panel, direct it to a smart panel, or send power back to the grid if you have solar.
UTILITY METERS measure the amount of electricity consumed by a home or business. They provide utility companies with data to accurately bill customers and monitor overall consumption patterns of energy resources. Many modern utility meters, particularly net meters, are designed to track both the electricity consumed by your home and the excess electricity generated by renewable energy systems (such as solar panels) that is sent back to the grid. This bi-directional capability measures energy flow in both directions, enabling homeowners to receive credits for the surplus energy contributed to the grid.
SMART PANELS and breakers serve as intelligent control centers for your home, seamlessly monitoring and managing electricity flow. They enable you to dynamically allocate power from sources such as solar panels, generators, backup batteries, and the grid in response to real-time demands, including peak and off-peak hours. With features like fault detection, safety enhancements and remote management, these smart systems empower you to make informed decisions about energy consumption, maximizing cost efficiency while maintaining comfort and reliability.
A GENERATOR serves as a dependable backup power source, providing electricity during outages or when demand exceeds your system's capacity. It can automatically kick in when the grid goes down, ensuring that your essential appliances remain operational. With smart integration, you can manage when to utilize the generator based on energy needs and costs, optimizing its use during peak times or as a supplemental power source during high-demand periods. This flexibility enhances your energy security, keeping your home powered when it matters most.
THE UTILITY GRID is an extensive network of power lines, substations, and transformers that deliver electricity from generation sources to consumers, including homes and businesses. It can also receive excess electricity that is not used or needed, which is generated by renewable energy systems (such as solar panels). This capability allows for a more sustainable energy ecosystem, enabling the integration of clean energy sources and supporting grid reliability.
THE MAIN PANEL in a home is the center of your electrical system, distributing electricity from the utility or renewable sources throughout your living space. It receives power from various sources, such as solar panels, the grid, and backup systems, ensuring all circuits are safely powered. Equipped with circuit breakers for protection, the main panel manages the flow of electricity, preventing overloads while enabling efficient energy usage. With smart technologies, the main panel can offer real-time monitoring and control, enhancing your ability to optimize energy consumption and maintain a safe, efficient home.
A CRITICAL CIRCUIT PANEL is a secondary electrical panel that keeps your most important circuits powered during an outage. It connects to specific circuits—like those for refrigerators or essential medical equipment—that you want to stay on when the main power goes out.
While it doesn’t have smart technology to decide where power goes, it automatically draws from your backup power source to supply those pre-selected circuits. That way, your vital equipment keeps running when you need it most.
BACKUP LOADS refer to specific circuits or appliances in your home designated to receive power during outages or peak demand periods. These prioritized loads ensure that essential systems, such as refrigeration, heating, and lighting, remain operational when the main power supply is interrupted or when energy costs are high. By strategically managing these backup loads, you can maximize energy efficiency and minimize disruptions, ensuring that your household maintains functionality and comfort even when relying on backup power sources like generators or battery systems.
SOLAR INVERTERS are essential components in solar panel systems that convert the direct current (DC) generated by solar panels into alternating current (AC), the form of electricity used by most household appliances. These inverters enable the efficient use of solar energy for home and business applications, ensuring that solar power can be seamlessly integrated into existing electrical systems.
APP CONTROL: Manage your entire energy system effortlessly through a user-friendly app. Control and monitor electricity flow, optimize energy usage, receive real-time alerts, and much more—all from your smartphone or device. This keeps you informed about your energy consumption and make timely adjustments to enhance efficiency and savings.
EV CHARGERS facilitate the efficient charging of your electric vehicle, allowing you to optimize energy usage by avoiding peak hours when electricity costs are higher. Bonus: Your electric vehicle can also power your home! Our energy management solutions can help set you up to leverage your car as an additional battery backup, providing extra energy storage and enhancing your energy independence when you need it most.
A BATTERY BACKUP system serves as a reliable energy reserve for your home, storing electricity for use during outages and ensuring essential appliances remain operational. The system intelligently manages energy storage by charging during off-peak hours when rates are lower and discharging during peak hours to reduce costs. It also enhances energy independence by enabling the use of stored energy, further optimizing your overall energy management strategy.
SMART CIRCUITS provide precise control over energy distribution, allowing you to decide when and where power is sourced. For instance, you can avoid using the most expensive energy source for your air conditioner during peak times or ensure your business's computer server and Wi-Fi remain powered during outages. You can also incorporate in-home automation to lower shades during the golden hours, helping to keep your home cool. Additionally, you can ensure that your lighting is dimmed during daylight hours when maximum power use is not needed.
We offer full energy management solutions that meet your specific needs, whether it’s a single component capable of future enhancements or a comprehensive, fully off-the-grid system, specializing in scalable solutions for every capacity.
