“SimpliPhi is always exploring new ways to empower our customers to take control of their energy decisions and own their power,” said Catherine Von Burg, CEO & President of SimpliPhi Power. “By fully integrating Lumin’s state-of-the-art hardware and digital interface with our range of scalable energy storage solutions, we can give homeowners and businesses new levels of control, a better understanding of their energy usage, and the ability to dynamically control energy consumption to manage or even eliminate their monthly utility bill.”
The partnership officially launches a single, user-friendly app for SimpliPhi customers that goes beyond monitoring on-site generation and consumption to provide circuit-level insights into a building’s energy usage and performance.
Through intuitive controls and automation customers can utilize their energy storage system to save money each month by avoiding time-of-use rates and demand charges. Additionally, advanced metrics and controls enable customers seeking whole-home backup power to install more cost-effective systems that can manage building loads more granularly to ensure reliable power when the grid is not available.
“The ability to address the current climate challenges depends on the mass adoption of distributed energy,” said Alex Bazhinov, Founder & CEO of Lumin. “We are thrilled to work with SimpliPhi on delivering additional value to homeowners and making solar+storage systems more affordable and capable by integrating battery and load management in one intuitive, easy-to-use application.”
