Episode 129: The Next Generation of Energy with Rosewater Energy Group
Today Brad speaks with RoseWater Energy Group’s Co-Founder and CEO Joseph Piccirilli and Co-Founder Director Mario Bottero. RoseWater creates innovative and intelligent energy management systems for governments, utilities, industries, and residential consumers.
Focused on the mission to create the next generation of renewable smart grid systems leveraging the best battery storage technologies, RoseWater works with their clients to design, build, integrate and manage power system assets specific to their needs.
Alongside Joseph and Mario, Brad also welcomes Chris Matthews, Principal of Acoustic Designs Group, a Scottsdale-based architectural lighting design and automation firm, to speak on incorporating RoseWater into a home.
Traditionally, the three broad categories in a home are the mechanical systems, the electrical systems, and the plumbing. Today, there is a fourth category: the communication infrastructure of a home. RoseWater ensures the integrity of this infrastructure.
RoseWater has a “dual feature” in that it not only monitors energy, but generates it (i.e. via solar). Its battery backup lasts for 18-to-36 hours—an incredibly useful feature to have if you live in a power outage-prone area.
“You can definitely keep your home office going with a RoseWater product,” says Chris, “because it doesn’t care what feeds it. It just keeps powering what’s connected to it.”

Key Quotes by Joseph, Mario, and Chris:
Traditionally, the three broad categories in a home are the mechanical systems, the electrical systems, and the plumbing. [...] For a long time, that was perfect. But in today’s world, there’s a fourth category: the communication infrastructure of a home. ~Joseph
“Consistent energy” is when energy produces consistent voltage, 120 volts, consistent frequency, 60 cycles at all times regardless of what’s feeding our device. ~Chris
When we went about partnering with the right people, we needed to deal with companies and engineers that really understood our problem. ~Mario
