The Intelligent Home Energy Solution for Solar Retrofit
Home Energy Upgrades Made Easy by the FranklinWH System with the aPower 2 Battery
As energy demand rises and policies evolve, many existing standalone solar systems fall short, resulting in wasted excess power, lower feed-in returns, and inability to offer backup power. While adding battery storage addresses some challenges, many homeowners face compatibility issues, complex retrofitting, and potential loss of previous investment.
Introducing the FranklinWH System with the aPower 2, a unique AC-coupled system with plug-and-play simplicity, enabling seamless whole-home energy management without inverter replacement, avoiding unnecessary reinvestment due to major modifications.
Unlock the Full Potential of Your Existing Solar Installation
Inverter Agnostic, Backup Power Enabled
Being agnostic to any solar inverter, the aPower 2-based FranklinWH System allows smooth battery storage addition to your existing solar setup, minimizing retrofitting complexity and protecting your previous investment.
The aPower 2 enables time-of-use (TOU) utility bill savings and backup capability, turning your solar system into a complete and resilient home energy system.
Expand Your Solar System without Losing Earlier NEM Value
If your home solar is under an earlier net energy metering (NEM) program and your energy needs increase, you can add additional independent solar production under NEM 3.0 with the optional aPbox or aHub, preserving your favorable pre-existing net metering rates while the new system generates and stores more power to meet your growing energy demands.
Backward Compatibility, Easy Storage Scaling
The aPower 2 is backward compatible with earlier aPower versions, making it easy for storage expansion without costly system reconfiguration, protecting your existing investment while future-proofing your system.
Open Integration, Enduring Reliability
Designed to work seamlessly with any existing third-party solar setup, the FranklinWH System provides a streamlined maintenance experience, enabling real-time mobile monitoring, accurate remote diagnostics, and rapid troubleshooting. FranklinWH's unified, responsive, and expert support service ensures enduring reliability for every connected system.
Perfect for Homes Seeking Advanced Energy Use
The FranklinWH System pairs the aPower 2 battery with the aGate intelligent energy controller as the ideal retrofit solution offering high system capacity and scalability to meet advanced energy use.
Additionally, adding an aHub enables long-distance solar integration, smart multi-PV management, and added Smart Circuits.
Upgraded Capacity
Avoids costly main panel upgrades and expands home energy capacity up to 280 A while adding automatic management of generators and large loads.
Advanced
Meets heavy-load demand in scenarios such as in large homes and small businesses where there is a collection of energy-intensive appliances such as A/C and EV chargers.
Lucrative
Suited for homeowners seeking long term investment returns.
Purpose-Built for Homes with a Meter Main Combo
The aPower 2 plus a meter adapter controller (MAC) is custom-built for homes with combo panels requiring normal energy use.
When paired with the aHub, the simplified solution unlocks advanced features for homeowners such as generator and V2L integration, Smart Circuits, and connectivity to distant solar panels.
Streamlined
This simplified solution easily achieves home energy system integration by directly connecting its auxiliary modules with the meter, allowing fast installation with minimal rewiring.
Cost-Effective
Reduces cost and enhances system cohesion, ideal for homeowners seeking cost-effective and simplified deployment.
Scenario-Specific
Best suited for average load demand scenarios such as typical residential use, moderate power backup, or basic small-scale solar integration.
