The marriage of home automation with intelligent energy storage has culminated in microgrid technology that can provide fuel not just for Pasadena, CA, homes, but for entire communities. On-site battery storage is a safe and maintenance free solution to emergency power generation. Enjoy a more independent, cost effective future for your energy control with residential energy storage.

Never worry about a power outage shutting down your smart home again or disrupting your life in case of a fire, earthquake or wind storm. Weather event readiness ensures that with energy backup, you won’t be left high and dry when an incidental power outage or storm rolls through. If a severe storm is coming that might knock out grid power, the system can increase the ecoLinx battery reserve percentage in anticipation of the event. Based on the type of grid outage that’s occurred, our energy software also controls the loads in the home to make sure the battery will last as long as necessary.

Load shedding is a critical strategy to avoid electric power system outage due to a disturbance. This strategy must consider an integrated approach for process and power, both dynamical and at high-speeds. Intelligent load shedding will preserve system integrity and provide acceptable system performance, even during a power outage. We use Racepoint Energy breaker companion modules as the way that we manage energy use in the house to prioritize appliances during a power outage.

With the ever-changing nature of electrical costs and the tenuous nature of California electrical providers, you’re likely dealing with uncomfortable rate fluctuations. Our time of use plans can help you manage your energy costs by taking advantage of lower rates during off-peak and super off-peak periods. Time of use plans from your electrical utility are designed to influence your behavior and energy usage. With an on-site energy storage system you can use electricity the way you want to while avoiding high rate periods. As a bonus you're helping stabilize the grid at the same time.

The electronic devices that we rely on to make our house comfortable are designed to work on stable power from the grid. Fossil fuel powered generators can provide electricity in an emergency but their harsh output causes wear and tear on sensitive electronics. When the stability of the grid is in question only a home battery storage system provides clean power continuously for your La Canada Flintridge, CA, home.

At Personal Technology, we use Racepoint Energy breaker companion modules, the industry’s leading energy control devices, to give you real insights about your energy usage and trends. Intelligent monitoring ensures that you’re never draining your resources through excessive HVAC use, too many “energy vampire” sources like unused lights and other silent conservation drains. Instead, all of your devices work together to save you the most energy, every day. With the ability to see and track your energy usage in real time you can decide how best to use electricity to save on peak rate cost, or preserve emergency power.
