Embodiments disclose solar energy generation systems with automatic smart transfer switches. An energy generation system, including an energy generation device, an energy generation inverter coupled to the energy generation device and configured to convert direct current (DC) power from the energy generation device to alternating current (AC) power, a battery pack, a storage inverter coupled to the battery pack, where the storage inverter is configured to convert DC power from the battery pack to AC power and to convert AC power into DC power for storing energy into the battery pack, and a smart main electrical panel coupled to receive AC power from at least one of the energy generation inverter, the storage inverter, and a utility grid, where the smart main electrical panel includes one or more motorized circuit breakers configured to be remotely controlled to manage the power flow to one or more loads.

Four-way automatic transfer switch power topology

Systems and apparatuses include a mesh network for power distribution. The mesh network includes a plurality of interconnected four-way automatic transfer switches. Each four-way automatic transfer switch includes a common pole, a first pole selectively coupled to the common pole with a first switching device, a second pole selectively coupled to the common pole with a second switching device, a third pole selectively coupled to the common pole with a third switching device, and a fourth pole selectively coupled to the common pole with a fourth switching device. The common pole of a first interconnected four-way automatic transfer switch of the plurality of interconnected four-way automatic transfer switches is structured to provide power to a corresponding load, and the common poles of two or more of the plurality of interconnected four-way automatic transfer switches are structured to receive power from corresponding power sources.
