Intelligent energy management company Eaton has announced a partnership with Lunar Energy to simplify installation and maximize the functionality of home energy storage and solar systems. The integration of Eaton’s new AbleEdge smart circuit breakers with the Lunar System will make it easier for installers and homeowners to deploy solar and storage, manage loads, optimize costs and extend the life of the solar battery system. The joint solutions are expected to be available in early 2025, with Eaton being Lunar Energy’s preferred supplier for load management.
Eaton’s AbleEdge smart breakers will add load management functionality to the Lunar System in new construction and renovation projects. Eaton’s smart breakers can be added to the Lunar Bridge, any Eaton BR load center or meter breaker. Homeowners and installers can use Lunar’s application to install, commission and monitor both companies’ technologies, simplifying installation and ongoing home energy management.
Eaton’s partnership with Lunar Energy will simplify installation and maximize the functionality of home energy storage and solar systems.
“Every home has unique energy needs and infrastructure, so we created a home energy management ecosystem that is modular and scalable for renovations and new homes,” said Paul Ryan, general manager of Connected Solutions and EV Charging at Eaton. “We are opening the door to more resilient, sustainable and electrified homes with technologies that work out-of-the-box across every solar and storage provider. Our partnership with Lunar Energy will streamline the implementation of solar and energy storage to help homeowners keep their power on despite outages and reduce their carbon footprint.”
The collaboration is in line with Eaton’s ‘Home as a Grid’ strategy, which helps homeowners put the energy transition into practice. By creating flexible energy systems that manage energy consumption in an integrated way, Eaton’s work with leading energy storage providers like Lunar Energy transforms what is possible for the home as an energy source.
“When we started Lunar Energy, we wanted to provide customers with a simple and elegant clean energy solution. For us, ‘brilliantly designed’ means just that: designing a solar and battery system that is tailor-made for every home and an experience that is intuitive for every family member within it,” said Kunal Girotra, Founder and CEO of Lunar Energy. “Our modular battery system achieves this by adapting to homes of all sizes. With the addition of Eaton’s AbleEdge smart breakers, we will provide an excellent solution that makes the clean energy transition both simple and exceptional.”
