The Problem

Modern homes waste up to 30% of generated solar energy due to inefficient storage and grid feedback. Batteries degrade quickly, and manual management is cumbersome for average households.

Our Solution

The SmartGrid Solar Hub integrates a modular 10kWh lithium-iron-phosphate battery with a custom AI controller that learns your usage patterns, weather forecasts, and electricity rates to automatically optimize storage and grid sales.

"We built this for families who want true energy independence without needing an engineering degree to manage it." — Jonas Devaux, Founder

Campaign Live

We're officially live! Thank you for the incredible first-day support. We'll be answering every comment and DM within 24 hours. Stay tuned for weekly updates.

What certifications will the SmartGrid Hub have?
The device will carry UL 1973, UL 9540A, CE, and FCC certifications before any units ship. We are currently in the final testing phase with Intertek.
Is professional installation required?
Yes. While the Hub itself is designed for easy mounting, electrical integration requires a licensed electrician. We include $150 installation credit for all backers.
What happens if the campaign fails to reach the goal?
All pledges will be fully refunded, and no charges will be processed. The funds are only secured once the campaign goal is met and the funding period closes.
How does the AI optimization work?
Our on-device processor analyzes 18 months of historical data, local weather APIs, and utility rate schedules to automatically charge/discharge cycles. It also predicts panel degradation and adjusts storage targets accordingly.

Does the app support HomeKit and Matter protocols? I'd love to integrate it with my existing smart home setup.
