Lunar Energy has just raised $300 million to help launch its fully integrated rooftop solar and battery storage systems.Kunal Girotra is the former head of the Tesla’s residential energy business.
Nor is it always clear which vendor is in charge of managing the interplay of solar power, battery storage capacity, and household loads. Managing those tasks is necessary to maximize the savings homeowners expect and to allow them to earn money by making their battery’s capacity available to utility or energy market grid services programs.
“To truly be a smart-home provider, not just smart whole home controls but at the grid level, the key barrier is software,” Finn-Foley said. Girotra says that Lunar Energy has developed its own software to “do things like keep the battery safe, control on and off-grid ramifications, or communicate from the solar to the battery.” For much of the remainder of the software functionality involved, Lunar Energy will be making use of Moixa’s GridShare software, he added.
This technology is going to help many people and the Earth with the environmental benefits it will provide through the solar panels and home battery system. The testing done in the past will provide valuable information to help this business become successful bcTechF22
