FOCUS Business: E3/DC recognised as Leading Innovator 2027

E3/DC, part of Hager’s energy management portfolio, has once again been recognised among Germany’s most innovative companies. For 2027, the brand received the FOCUS Business “Leading Innovator” award in the energy sector for the second consecutive year, highlighting its continued contribution to the development of intelligent energy storage, EV charging and integrated energy management solutions.

The award recognises E3/DC’s long-standing commitment to transforming residential energy systems into intelligent, connected energy ecosystems. As energy markets become more dynamic and electrification continues to accelerate, homeowners increasingly expect solutions that can seamlessly coordinate solar generation, battery storage, heating, electric mobility and grid interaction.

"We are delighted to receive this recognition from FOCUS Business once again. For us, innovation means consistently aligning technologies and services with the energy world of tomorrow – and actively helping to shape that future."

This approach is reflected across E3/DC’s portfolio. Through the continuous development of its home energy systems, software platform and charging solutions, the company enables homeowners to increase energy independence, optimise costs and make better use of renewable energy. Regular software updates ensure that both new and existing installations benefit from evolving functionalities and changing market opportunities.

One example is AI 360°, E3/DC’s intelligent energy management solution. The system uses artificial intelligence to optimise charging, storage and electricity procurement based on forecasts, household consumption patterns and dynamic electricity tariffs. Today, more than 180,000 E3/DC home energy systems help customers manage their energy consumption more intelligently while preparing their homes for an increasingly electrified future.
