Abstract
Multi-throw or multi-pole switching systems and methods are provided for providing modular switching combinations for enabling flexible home energy management. A switching system comprises an energy management system configured to switch between a plurality of energy sources (e.g., a utility, backup energy source(s) and energy storage component(s)) automatically/manually to enable flexible configurations thereof. The switching system further comprises one or more modular transfer switches configured to add to the energy management system one or more energy sources. If a module is made of n poles then adding each module can add n-1 energy resources. The one or more modular transfer switches are multi-throw or multi-pole switches.
