Sparq Announces AI-Driven Grid Power Control Device

Executive Summary

• Sparq Systems Inc. announced the development of an AI‑driven Grid‑Power Control (GPC) device for residential, commercial and industrial solar applications.
• The GPC operates in zero‑power‑export, static‑power‑export, and dynamic energy‑trading modes and supports single‑phase, three‑phase, balanced and unbalanced systems with wireless communication.
• Executives highlighted that the AI‑centric design moves functionality from hardware to software, reducing installation complexity and cost while increasing flexibility for customers.

Key Details

• Device Overview: AI‑driven Grid‑Power Control (GPC) device designed for precise power management between solar generation, load demand, and the grid.
• Operating Modes:
• Zero‑power‑export – prevents excess electricity from being fed to the grid.
• Static‑power‑export – allows a fixed amount of export.
• Dynamic energy‑trading – enables real‑time market participation as defined by the user.
• System Compatibility: Works with single‑phase, three‑phase, balanced and unbalanced power systems; marketed as a “universal” control solution.
• Installation Benefits: Wireless communication between system elements eliminates additional wiring, simplifying installation and reducing costs.
• Technology Highlights (CTO Comment – Dr. Majid Pahlevani): AI and algorithm‑centric design eliminates the need for extra hardware, delivering simpler, cheaper installations.
• Strategic Impact (CEO Comment – Dr. Praveen Jain): Shifting functionality from hardware to software creates more flexible solutions, enhances customer resilience, and lowers overall system costs.
