FranklinWH Announces General Availability of Whole Home Energy Management System Featuring 15 kWh aPower 2 Battery and 15-Year Warranty

SAN JOSE, Calif., Jan. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- FranklinWH Energy Storage Inc. (FranklinWH), a leader in whole-home energy management, today announced the general availability of its next-generation whole home energy management solutions, including the aPower 2, a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) home battery featuring an impressive 15 kWh capacity and 10 kW continuous output power, as well as its enhanced aGate, an intelligent management device that supports home loads by integrating energy sources and FranklinWH batteries, and the user-friendly FranklinWH App.

"We are proud to begin delivering our next-generation whole-home energy management system to homeowners at such a critical time," said Gary Lam, Co-Founder and CEO of FranklinWH. "In addition to a seamless connection with PV inverters, these upgrades demonstrate our commitment to constant improvement and providing consumers with peace of mind amid rapidly growing energy demand and extreme weather events."

FranklinWH's whole home system is available via its growing installer network, composed of more than 2,000 installation companies located across the U.S., including Puerto Rico. Domestic Content compliant versions of the aPower 2 are expected to be available to customers in Q2, 2025.

New enhancements to the FranklinWH whole home solution were made to further meet homeowner needs. Along with an increased warranty of 15 years or 60 MWh throughput, FranklinWH's upgraded system provides even greater reliability and return on investment for homeowners. Whole home backup can be achieved, in most cases, with a single aPower 2 due to its robust 15 kWh capacity, 10 kW discharge rate, 8 kW charge rate, and support for up to 5-ton AC units. For larger applications, the aPower 2 can be stacked up to 225 kWh or 15 aPowers per aGate. Enhanced black start capabilities and a more efficient low-power mode make the system the ideal solution in backup power situations – ensuring power is available when a homeowner needs it most.

FranklinWH's solutions can endure almost any climate and, by using fan-less convection with whisper-quiet operation, it is significantly quieter than industry-standard fan cooled batteries. The FranklinWH App has been enhanced with revamped visuals, a smart voice assistant for hands-free commands, enhanced energy data analysis, and more customized scheduling options so homeowners can take further control over their energy usage.

FranklinWH Announces General Availability of Whole Home Energy Management System Featuring 15 kWh aPower 2 Battery and 15-Year Warranty

NEW YORK , Jan. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- LILYSILK, the world's leading silk brand with a mission to inspire people to live better, more sustainable lives, announced the third anniversary of its partnership with TerraCycle. As of this November, the collaboration has recycled more than 2,385 pieces, totaling 1,404.5 pounds of textiles. LILYSILK invites customers to join a renewed no-waste recycling initiative to celebrate this milestone, offering loyalty points, discounts, and limited-time rewards.

"Celebrating three years of partnership with LILYSILK is a testament to what can be achieved when like-minded organizations work together toward a shared vision," said Tom Szaky, TerraCycle Founder and CEO. "Through the Program, we've empowered consumers to responsibly collect and recycle textiles at the end of their useful life ."

The recycling process is simple: register at TerraCycle.com, pack your LILYSILK textiles, and send them to TerraCycle using a prepaid shipping label. The textiles are then cleaned, sorted, and recycled into raw materials for products like mattress fillers, pet bedding, and sporting equipment. This free program helps reduce waste and keeps valuable materials out of landfills.

Participants have praised its ease and impact. Longtime customer Denise Stovall shared, "I was more than willing and overjoyed to participate in the LILYSILK recycling program. That is a victory in sustainability , something every human has to consider as we all collectively move forward in taking better care of our precious EARTH."

"I participated in the LILYSILK recycling program because I strongly believe in sustainable fashion," said another customer, Aida G: "Reusing (these fabrics) gave me a sense of responsibility and pride. It was enlightening to contribute to a cycle that values resourcefulness and ecological care."

New Rewards and Special Promotions

Each recycling shipment earns customers 100 LILYSILK points and a 12% discount on their next order. Participants also earn TerraCycle Recycling Rewards points, redeemable as charitable donations, allowing them to support causes that matter while advancing sustainability. From January 1 to March 31, 2025, participants who recycle their non-donatable LILYSILK products will receive a complimentary Re-LILYSILK Pillowcase with their next order.

"Our three-year partnership with TerraCycle® has been a valuable step toward a more sustainable future," said David Wang, CEO of LILYSILK. "We are grateful for our customers' continued support and look forward to welcoming more participants to our recycling initiatives. Together, every effort brings us closer to a brighter, greener future."
