When people think of microprocessors, computers are the first thing that comes to mind. Yet, all the PCs, Apple desktops, engineering workstations, and supercomputers comprise less than 1% of the microprocessors sold yearly. So, where are all these microprocessors hiding? Well, they are in all the devices people use every day.

Today’s homes contain hundreds of microprocessors. Microprocessors make living a lot easier, from wiring to home entertainment systems, lighting, and other smart home devices. What makes all these devices run? Power. And to ensure those devices used to keep a home operating, it isn’t enough to have a reliable power supply; a proper power plan is critical.

Power quality and reliability are two parts of a power plan residential homeowners must understand to keep those microprocessors running efficiently. So, how do people create a proper power plan?

On this epsiode of The Next Generation of Energy, Bobby Brill spoke with the man himself, Joe Piccirilli, CEO of RoseWater Energy, to get those answers and find out what comprises a sound power plan.

Brill and Piccirilli cover the following in their discussion:

• The growing need for sophisticated home medical devices requiring a reliable energy supply

• Forming a power plan that consists of the correct type of alternative power storage to assist with power grid load changes and other issues

• Understanding power conditioning to provide consistent voltage to a home

“The output of a RoseWater power conditioner is always 120 volts,” Piccirilli said. “There is no transfer time involved. Its very function is to make sure that the residents of this critical load panel are always being fed 120 volts. That’s what the primary purpose of this device does.”

Joe Piccirilli from Rosewater Energy discusses load shedding in the latest episode of Rosewater Unescripted. Load shedding is the automatic process of turning off selected breakers in your panel during a power outage to match the available power capacity. It ensures that the power demand doesn't exceed the capacity of the battery system. Load shedding also helps increase battery run time by reducing the load on the batteries. However, Rosewater products don't include load shedding because they are designed to protect critical infrastructure continuously, without compromising lifestyle and security.

The average home has become more automated and continues to advance technologically every year, much of it due to increasing power quality. With these improvements comes drawbacks in the form of reliability of devices, power consumption, and expectations of consumers. What is the difference between power quality and power reliability, and how do they intersect?

On today’s episode of The Next Generation of Energy, host Daniel Litwin and co-host Carl Kasalek, talk with Joe Piccirrilli, CEO of RoseWater Energy, about power quality and the future of electricity.

Joe Piccirrilli is the CEO and Managing Director of RoseWater Energy. He was a founder of Sound Advice, an upscale HiFi shop that grew to 25 locations. Piccirrilli was also helped create AVAD, a national distribution company, before founding RoseWater Energy with partners Mario Bottero and Marco Lorenti in 2010.

“The industrial world is far ahead of the residential world on the importance of keeping this product running and your microprocessor running,” said Piccirrilli. “People don’t think about an MRI machine, which I think is a great example. People think ‘wow, that’s an expensive machine’. Well no, if it’s been down for two days, you’ve just lost a lot of money.”

Key Points:

1. How the average person engages with power use and what this means for future devices and products

2. The differences between industrial and residential power use, such as noise and lighting

3. Why a higher quality device requires a cleaner, pure energy to be fed to it

Energy storage is on the rise in nations around the world as a result of the global energy crisis caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. But even before this event, energy storage was on the rise as more homes, companies, and governments turn their focus on power-quality to meet the needs of sensitive electronics throughout the facility. As awareness of issues with power-quality grow, how is this changing the energy market for 2023 and beyond?

On this new episode of The Next Generation of Energy, host Tyler Kern chats with CEO of RoseWater Energy, Joe Piccirilli, about the future of the energy given the recent spike in attention to power-quality. Kern and Piccirilli go over…

1) How the market is expanding with power-quality at center stage

2) What a look ahead to 2023 will bring for RoseWater Energy as more and more households start to pay attention to energy-reliability in their areas

3) New marketing strategies that RoseWater will implement for end-users and dealers for growth into the future at RoseWater U.

4) Which new products are in the works and what they might bring to the table

“We are quite optimistic about RoseWater for 2023, and we think even if the market contracts, our market will expand because it is now becoming much more of a focal point in a home. It is becoming, ‘Wow, in order for me to enjoy the benefits of everything else I’ve put in my home, I’ve got to guarantee the power is good,’...so, we’re projecting significant growth despite possible economic downturn,” said Piccirilli.

Piccirilli has been with RoseWater Energy Group for nearly twelve years. Prior to his role with RoseWater, Piccirilli was the Managing Director of AVAD LLC. He is a graduate of the University of Michigan with a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering.
