Jackery Integrates Its Battery Solution with Homey's Platform
Jackery has partnered with the smart home platform Homey, developed by Athom and part of LG Electronics, to integrate its new SolarVault 3 plug-in home battery series with Homey's Energy Dongle via the P1 smart meter interface. This move will enable real-time access to household grid data with one-second precision in the Netherlands market.
The integration allows the SolarVault 3 plug-in home battery system to dynamically adjust its output based on live household consumption. This prevents energy from being sent back to the grid, which, in turn, increases the percentage of solar power the home uses directly. It also responds to volatile electricity prices, and due to the plug-in design of Jackery's product, there is no need to call an electrician for installation.

Modular Growth Gear
Parents are adopting modular youth gear that is adjustable, upgradeable, and serviceable to accommodate fast-growing athletes and reduce the need for full replacement cycles.
Question 1
Do you currently have any children under 18 who participate in organized or recreational sports?
Question 2
Have you ever purchased sports gear designed to adjust as your child grows?
Question 3
When your child outgrows a piece of sports gear, how much of a problem is having to replace it?
Question 4
What bothers you MOST about replacing outgrown gear?
Question 5
How likely would you be to choose sports gear that adjusts or upgrades as your child grows the next time you buy one?
Trend Themes
-
Plug-in Home Storage — Modular batteries that install without electricians are expanding access to residential energy storage and creating room for appliance-like power products that reduce adoption friction.
-
Real-time Energy Automation — Second-by-second household consumption data is turning home batteries into responsive energy assets that can optimize solar use, grid interaction, and electricity cost exposure.
-
Dynamic Solar Self-consumption — Price-aware battery controls are reshaping rooftop solar economics by prioritizing direct household use over grid exports in markets with volatile rates or reduced feed-in value.
Industry Implications
-
Residential Energy Storage — Consumer-ready storage systems are shifting the category from professionally installed infrastructure toward simple, connected devices suited to broader household adoption.
-
Smart Home Technology — Energy platforms embedded in smart home ecosystems are becoming central control layers for batteries, meters, solar equipment, and automated household optimization.
-
Solar Power — Home solar providers face new differentiation potential as integrated batteries improve self-consumption rates and make rooftop generation more valuable under changing tariff structures.
