Kohler Power, the global power generation and energy solutions company has expanded its clean energy offering with the launch of Kohler Power Reserve energy storage system.
With the new line of products, Kohler intends to offer customers a modular backup system to store and access the clean energy produced by their home's solar systems. Kohler Power Reserve energy storage system offers both AC- and DC-coupled units and for users to access the type of power source/output required for their homes without the need for additional accessories.
The energy storage system also comes with an app, through which homeowners can access and manage their stored solar power in the energy storage system and get insights into real-time power flow for the home, the timeline of power information for the day, historical statistics for the system, and allows users to choose the operation mode for their system (back-up, self-supply, time-of-use or custom) to personalize their battery's storage and output.
"The new KOHLER Power Reserve product line allows us to support customers who have invested in solar energy for their homes by offering them a smart storage solution to efficiently optimize their home's power usage," said Kyle Brandemuhl, Kohler Power General Manager of Residential and Power Products.
"With this modular system, homeowners can more easily access their stored solar energy for use at night, on cloudy days, or as a backup system for when the grid goes down."
For non-solar powered homes, the KOHLER Power Reserve energy storage system offers a way to store energy from the grid during times of lower rates and then rely on the batteries for power during peak rate periods while providing the home with backup power in case of a power outage.
"We are leveraging that history of trusted expertise to improve the power resiliency of homes and small businesses through this exciting product launch," said Brian Melka, Kohler Power Group President.
"Clean energy plays a crucial role in the future of sustainable living and the continued expansion of Kohler Power for the next 100 years."
