Smart home energy company Emporia teams with Palmetto to tie in solar – Solar Builder Magazine
Smart home energy management company Emporia Energy, announced a new partnership with solar installer platform Palmetto to provide a special offer to customers on new solar energy systems. Home owners can now combine Palmetto’s solar systems with Emporia’s energy management technology.
The Emporia Smart Home Energy Management System combines an understanding of peak usage, electrical grid efficiency, and real-time data to give customers new insights on their energy consumption to reduce their usage and ultimately save money on their utility bills.
Combined with a solar power system from Palmetto, the Emporia Vue energy monitor can adjust a user’s smart devices to automatically utilize only the energy their solar system generates in real-time. By pinpointing and automating energy usage for smart devices, users can expect increased energy efficiency and drastically decreased utility bills.
The priority of smart devices can be ordered in Emporia’s app, then these devices will be turned on or their load will be increased in priority order until the generation is optimally consumed. And, with the Emporia app, customers can track their energy savings and reduce unexpected costs before the bill even arrives.
“The opportunity for Emporia customers to access Palmetto’s solar energy solutions with this special offer is an exciting step in making energy-efficient, solar-powered homes accessible to all,” said Chris Kemper, Chairman, Founder, and CEO of Palmetto. “Ultimately, this partnership is a win for the environment and our customers’ financial freedom.”
This process starts with a free, no-obligation consultation from Palmetto’s solar team. Palmetto then handles all the details of switching to solar, from designing and engineering to obtaining permits and installation. The top-tier customer service teams at both companies provide ongoing support and protection for every customer to guarantee successful long-term savings.
Have you checked out our YouTube page?
We have a ton video interviews and additional content on our YouTube page. Recently we debuted Power Forward! — a collaboration with BayWa r.e. to discuss higher level industry topics as well as best practices / trends for running a solar business today.
Our longer running side project is The Pitch — in which we have awkward discussions with solar manufacturers and suppliers about their new technology and ideas so that you don’t have to. We’ve discusses everything from residential rail-less deck attaching and home solar financing to large-scale energy storage value stacking and utility-driven new home solar + storage microgrids.
We also post our Project of the Year announcements there! Interviews with this year’s winners will be up starting the week of Nov. 8. Head there and subscribe today to stay on top of all this extra stuff.
