Torus, Inc. today announced a partnership with Vivint Smart Home, a leading smart home brand in the United States, to offer state-of-the-art energy storage and management solutions in Vivint-managed homes in Utah, with further expansion coming soon.
The partnership integrates Torus Station battery storage into Vivint homes, enabling homeowners to:
- Store Renewable Energy: Homes with Torus Stations capture and save energy from sources like solar panels for use at night, during outages, or when grid energy prices peak.

"Partnering with Vivint amplifies our shared mission of empowering communities and individuals to become their own renewable utility provider, while making it more reliable and affordable than ever to power and control homes with clean energy," said Torus CEO Nate Walkingshaw. “We anticipate thousands of Torus homes in battery configurations in the next several years. Customers will love the way the Torus Station helps them save money and save the planet at the same time.”
"We’re excited to work alongside Torus to help Vivint customers take control of their energy management," stated Evan Pack, Senior Vice President, Energy at Vivint. "Vivint’s platform provides the perfect foundation for those looking to seamlessly integrate their home battery, inverters, and distributed energy systems, and when combined with Torus’ innovative technology, we’ll be able to empower customers to gain control over their energy management, reduce peak energy costs, and save money.”
This partnership addresses the growing residential demand for sustainable energy storage solutions, merging Torus’ innovative storage management technology with Vivint's best-in-class customer service and home automation expertise.
