Energy Management Systems

Also on the rise: Using AI to detect faults in residential solar systems, Georgia Power gets an OK for a BESS, and China’s power woes are affecting U.S. solar markets.

SunDown detects and classifies per-panel faults without the need for additional sensors and was developed by researchers at the University of Massachusetts.

The Sirius energy management system will power commercial buildings with the greenest or cheapest electricity source possible automatically, while storing energy surpluses in EVs or battery walls to combat generation/demand imbalance.

The capacity will be coming across two RWE solar + storage projects in the US, though the specific projects have not yet been announced.

By combining Sunverge’s advanced intelligent energy management platform, Wallbox’s bi-directional EV charging stations, and Nissan’s compact EV, the companies plan to enhance distributed energy resource control and load management.

Also on the rise: Terabase acquires a performance modeling software platform, Tigo launches a rapid shutdown device, and NV5 Global acquires Sage Renewable Energy.

The company will use the funds to expand its team, as it looks to show off the innovation of its cell-level battery management system and inverter technology.

The Tigo TS4-A-S allows for rapid shutdown, monitoring and is safely operable from -40°F to +185°F.

Using data from Mapdwell, Palmetto can now generate and design a residential solar system proposal in a minute.

By combining hardware and software platforms, the two aim to create ‘zero energy homes,’ where energy is produced and used optimally on-site.
