Insist on the IO-HUB

The IO-HUB platform aligns between the smart grid requirements and the consumers' desire for full visibility and control of the energy consumption at their premises. This IO-HUB:

Manages the entire electricity network down to each single circuit in the premises

Enables suppliers and consumers to share the benefits of reduced energy consumption

Gives visibility and control to electricity consumption

Enables smooth integration of several alternative energy sources into existing wiring infrastructure

Integrates an energy management system for residential, small, and mid-sized buildings

Implements the intelligence of monitoring and control at the consumer premises

Exceeds the functionality and safety features of the standard panel while adding smart optimization

Monetizes all resources with its Approved Revenue Grade metering at the dis-aggregated level

Manages, monitors, controls, curtails, or monetizes energy circuit by circuit, load by load or by source

Replaces the conventional electricity panel and provides scalable monitoring and control capabilities

Provides automatic protection and load management functions according to owner’s priorities

Connects alternative energy sources, such as generators, solar, fuel cells, batteries, and more

Provides real time information from residential or commercial facilities. Such information includes, for example: abnormal consumption, unstable power or frequency, power outage and more

Creates a virtual essential load panel for customers concerned about power outages

Insist on Answers

Can the IO-HUB Integrate Fuel Cells or Generators into a Solar and Battery System?

Yes! Not only can the IO-HUB can easily work with most forms of solar, generation, and energy storage, it optimizes how this energy is produced, stored, and consumed.

Can the IO-HUB track natural gas or hydrogen usage for my Fuel Cells?

Yes! The IO-HUB is the only technology that holistically manages and tracks not only electricity but other fuel intake.

Can the IO-HUB island my home in the case of an outage?

Absolutely. Leveraging storage technologies, not only can the IO-HUB island a home from the grid, but it creates a virtual essential load panel, prioritized by the owner, so that the owner can decide what circuits stay on.

Can the IO-HUB track and monitor devices on a plug-load level?

The IO-HUB is able to communicate with zigbee relays and smart appliances if already present, yes.

Are controls necessary for energy systems?

IO controls truly are the brain of a microgrid. Without intelligence guiding the demand shifting and peak shaving, a battery is simply a backup solution. Controls also safeguard the proper use of an ESS.
