JOE / FROM THE CONVERSATIONS
Ideas & insights.
Read the ideas, then watch, listen to or read the original work.
The battery and the inverter answer different questions.
Joe Piccirilli on battery backup and inverter capacity
Joe compares an inverter to a car’s engine and battery capacity to its fuel tank. One determines how much power can be delivered; the other helps determine how long it can be delivered. His explanation shows why a battery-capacity number alone cannot describe what a backup system will run.
Discussion prompt
Ask for both output power and stored energy when comparing a backup system.
A power plan begins with what must keep working.
Joe Piccirilli with Bobby Brill
With Bobby Brill, Joe distinguishes power reliability from power quality. Their discussion covers alternative storage, grid changes and consistent voltage for increasingly sophisticated home equipment. Planning starts with the devices and loads that matter, before choosing a collection of products.
Discussion prompt
Identify critical loads and their requirements before selecting equipment.
A glitch may begin upstream of the device.
Joe Piccirilli with David Hidinger on The Energy Exchange
Joe recalls investigating automation systems that repeatedly needed rebooting even though the products and installation seemed sound. In his conversation with David Hidinger, he traces those frustrations to sags, surges and brief interruptions in supply. The story expands troubleshooting beyond the device itself.
Discussion prompt
Include the incoming power conditions when investigating recurring faults.
Connected homes need coordinated energy.
Joe Piccirilli with Bobby Brill on energy integration
Joe describes the energy integrator’s role in bringing grid power, solar and backup systems together. The conversation with Bobby Brill moves beyond individual components to the way they operate as a system. More automation increases the importance of understanding that relationship.
Discussion prompt
Check who is responsible for how the different energy sources work together.
Backup is only part of the quality question.
Joe Piccirilli and Mario Bottero on power quality
Joe and Mario Bottero discuss how highly sensitive equipment brought attention to power quality, and why similar concerns now appear in homes. Joe points to transfer time as a meaningful distinction between backup devices. Restoring supply and maintaining the conditions equipment needs are related but different tasks.
Discussion prompt
Examine what happens during the transition to backup power, not only afterward.
Define the problem before fixing the price.
Joe Piccirilli and Mario Bottero on RoseWater’s origins
Joe and Mario Bottero describe the long development of RoseWater’s energy system. Their account starts with the problem they wanted to solve and the demands of consumers and utilities. The conversation makes the development process visible, including the time required to reach a product they considered ready.
Discussion prompt
What operating requirement would be lost if the solution were chosen only by a target price?

BACKGROUND & EXPERIENCE
About Joe.
CEO & Founder
RoseWater Energy
Joe Piccirilli is CEO and founder of RoseWater Energy. Before focusing on power management, he founded audio retailer Sound Advice and helped build AVAD, a national distribution business serving technology integrators. He studied at the University of Michigan. That career connects retail, distribution, systems integration and the electrical infrastructure behind the connected home.
Across The Next Generation of Energy, The Energy Exchange and Pro AV Today, Joe explains power quality, backup capacity and the coordination of different energy sources. He brings the discussion back to homes, everyday equipment and the people responsible for making these systems work. His catalog includes interviews, demonstrations and an authored MarketScale article.
