How Franklin Batteries Work
Franklin’s system offers 13.6 kWh of energy storage capacity with a peak power output of 10 kW and a continuous power output of 5 kW. It uses innovative technology and data analysis to manage and optimize your energy usage, ensuring you always have a reliable supply of solar power. The Franklin backup battery can help you take control of your energy usage to lower your electric bills and eventually gain complete independence from grid energy. Here is a look at how the system works:
- Installation – The unit is an AC-coupled system that is compatible with new and existing solar panel systems. It is installed in your circuit breaker panel and is optimized for use with an existing or new solar energy system. The system can be stacked to include multiple units so that you have greater power output and storage capacity.
- Hardware – The system uses a lithium-ion home battery that requires two hardware boxes, the aPower battery and the aGate smart controller. These systems are controlled using the FranklinWH mobile app.
- Operation – The system automatically detects power outages and activates the automatic transfer switch. It can switch to battery backup power in just 16 ms.
- Modes – The system has three operating modes:
- Backup standby – Reserved for use in power outages.
- Self-consumption – Whole home battery power with a small reserve for outages.
- Load shifting – Time of use (TOU) offset to save money.
- Management – You can manage system operation and your personal usage data using the FranklinWH mobile app. With the app, you can choose your operation mode, monitor your solar energy production and use, and evaluate historical data.
Exploring the System Components of Franklin Batteries
Franklin has manufactured a sleek, powerful whole-home battery backup system. One battery can store up to 13.6 kW of solar energy, and you can stack up to 15 systems for even more solar battery storage. The FranklinWH system requires two components for operation:
- The aPower – This is a large box that holds the battery, protecting it from moisture, dust, and pests. It also contains the AC-coupled inverter. The battery stores DC solar energy, and the inverter converts that energy into AC electricity that you can use in your home.
- The aGate – The aGate is your central hub that connects your grid, solar system, and energy management system. It holds the automatic transfer switch, which automatically switches your home to backup power mode if there is a grid outage.
You can gain even more control over the features of your FranklinWH system with the FranklinWH app, available on the App Store and Google Play. The app allows you to:
- Access real-time data on your energy usage and solar energy status
- Gain control over your power sources and loads using custom features
- Calculate potential energy bill savings over some time
- Input your electricity bills to get tailored recommendations for TOU settings
- Activate voice command and smart assistance features
