Schneider Electric Square D Energy Center Is An All-In-One Smart Home Power Solution

One of the great things about CES is seeing the unexpected. One of my picks for best tech from CES 2021 was the new Square D Energy Center from Schneider Electric, one of the leading companies in energy management solutions. The consumer electronics market has been flooded with smart home gadgets for several years, but this Schneider Electric product looks at the smart home from a different perspective by starting at the power source first. The Square D Energy Center puts the intelligence in the heart of your home.

The most notable feature about the new Energy Center is that it looks like a standard breaker box with 60 circuits and can replace the 225A main breaker box that is already in most homes without any significant changes. However, the similarities end there. Not only can the Energy Center connect to the regular power grid, but it is also designed to connect to other power sources, including solar, stand-alone generators, batteries, or practically any other type of energy generation or storage solution. There is a direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) inverter from Solar Edge that connects right onto the back of the box. This solves one of the biggest challenges of incorporating additional power sources to a house and/or trying to leverage multiple sources for off-grid applications that need to be converted from DC to AC to power appliances. The Energy Center is also set up to support electric vehicle (EV) charging systems. As a result, the Energy Center can perform the functions that normally take three or four boxes – the breaker panel and the add-on connectors and controllers for both power and auto charging systems – while also providing surge protection for the entire home.
