The rising adoption of EVs and increased electrification combined with the impact of more frequent, extreme weather events, has rapidly added pressure to our already fragile power grid. To keep pace with the rising demand while providing reliable power, grid systems here in the US and around the world are forecast to require billions of dollars in investment. California alone will invest over $7B in new high-voltage transmission lines to facilitate getting cleanly-generated energy to their customers.
However, simply waiting for improvements to grid infrastructure stability is not the complete answer, new, innovative solutions are needed. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), a federal program managed by the US Department of Agriculture, issued grants totaling more than $11B designed to help drive energy programs that are judged both in their ability to reduce greenhouse gasses while increasing affordability and accessibility to consumers.
Coupled with available federal incentives, consumer demand for more control of their home’s power is on the rise. Savant’s end-to-end managed power solutions delivers a safer, smarter, greener living experience while reducing dependency and overall burden on the grid. Savant’s advanced automated software platform and intuitive app-based user experience make it easy to monitor and control every circuit, optimizing efficiency and reducing costs without compromising comfort and convenience.
The demand for smarter, managed power solutions represents a vital opportunity for technology integrators, either to deliver smart power as a standalone solution or as part of a larger smart home project.
A Savant Power System Complements any Solar Panel Installation
No home can be truly intelligent without smart power, and Savant’s end-to-end solution, now featuring scalable energy storage systems (ESS), enables homeowners to effectively produce, store and utilize solar power as a main source of daily energy, and feel secure having a managed, renewable power source when grid power is unavailable.
A Savant Power System complements any solar panel installation by adding partial or whole-home battery backup and load management. Featuring a scalable inverter from 12.5 kW to 100 kW with battery storage scaling from 20 kWh to 160 kWh of LFP batteries, the solution can provide power to any size home, drawing builders and homeowners ever closer to a Net Zero smart home of the future. As an additional incentive, the Savant Power System components are eligible for tax credits plus other government subsidies via the Inflation Reduction Act.
Enhanced Lifestyle with Intelligent Energy Modes
A Savant Power System combines onsite energy generation, integrated battery storage, generator control, flexible load management, and powerful EV charging—all tailored to meet the needs of each client. Users can view consumption data down to the circuit level and create energy scenes to react to changing power conditions, including defining loads that are not considered essential during an off-grid power emergency and can be automatically shed under those conditions.
Savant’s intuitive software platform also allows for management via Energy Modes, including Eco Mode, Storm Watch Mode, and Off-Grid Mode. These pre-defined modes allow homeowners to be ready for any scenario while prioritizing the use of stored energy and local generation to reduce grid dependence.
