Savant Power System Modules Enable Scalability
Savant notes that its Savant Power System is engineered to scale to cover myriad applications, and systems can be designed to provide revenue-grade monitoring and control — making every conventional electrical panel potentially smart, at an affordable price.
Savant’s smart energy software and power modules comprise the core of the system, with 20, 30, and 60-AMP models designed to fit industry-leading, standard electrical panels.
The manufacturer offers both Wi-Fi and LTE connectivity, ensuring that homeowners retain control even when the grid goes down and Wi-Fi becomes unavailable.
Savant adds that its Power System will extend the life of connected batteries, inverters and generators by dynamically shedding loads for maximum efficiency. Dealers can activate Energy Modes at the touch of a button via Scenes Engine and each mode can be personalized based on lifestyle. Customers will have access to Eco Mode, Storm Watch Mode, and Off-Grid Mode, to be ready for any scenario while prioritizing the use of stored energy and local generation to reduce grid dependence, Savant explains.
