Home Microgrid
A home microgrid is a residential-scale private power system that coordinates local energy resources, electrical loads, controls, protective equipment, and interaction with the utility grid. Solar or battery equipment may be components, but neither alone necessarily constitutes a complete microgrid.

A residential microgrid is an integrated electrical system for a home or residential property that coordinates onsite generation, battery energy storage, backup power, intelligent controls, property loads, and utility-grid interaction. Depending on its design, it may operate in island mode under defined conditions.
A locally controlled energy system that integrates distributed generation, energy storage, and loads — and can operate both connected to the main utility grid and independently (islanded). A residential microgrid is the application of this architecture to a private property. The defining characteristic of a microgrid is intelligent, coordinated control: components don't just coexist, they are actively managed as a unified system. This is what distinguishes a true microgrid from a generator + battery installed at the same address.
Everything Stays On.
Customer-sited generation + energy storage + backup generation + intelligent controls = whole-property power continuity.
