Copeland Expands U.S. Partnership with Mysa to Deliver Broader Smart Thermostat Solutions for Energy Efficiency and Sustainability
Copeland, a global leader in climate technology and sustainable HVACR solutions, has announced the expansion of its strategic partnership with Canadian-based Mysa Smart Thermostats into the U.S. market. This development builds on the initial success of integrating Mysa’s product offerings into Copeland’s portfolio in Canada and now aims to bring enhanced energy efficiency, sustainability, and control to an even broader base of American homeowners.
As global attention intensifies around climate change and the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions, energy efficiency has become a top priority for consumers, governments, and industries alike. Smart thermostats are among the most accessible and impactful tools available to homeowners seeking to cut energy costs and lower their environmental footprint. With this expansion, Copeland is further strengthening its position in the smart home sector by aligning with Mysa’s innovative solutions designed for baseboard, mini-split, and in-floor heating systems.
Addressing Unique Heating Needs Across the U.S.
While Copeland’s own line of Sensi smart thermostats has long been a staple in American homes—particularly for conventional HVAC and heat pump systems—Mysa brings complementary technology that addresses a different but widespread heating approach. Many homes, especially older ones in the Northeastern and Northwestern U.S., rely on electric baseboard heating, ductless mini-splits, or radiant in-floor systems. These systems are often underserved by traditional smart thermostats, creating a gap in the market that Mysa is well-positioned to fill.
By integrating Mysa into its broader smart home ecosystem, Copeland ensures that even more American households can take advantage of advanced energy-saving features and intelligent climate control, regardless of their home’s heating configuration. This collaboration effectively expands the reach of smart home climate control to millions of additional users who previously may have had limited options.
Strategic Benefits of the Partnership
The partnership between Copeland and Mysa is mutually beneficial. For Copeland, the addition of Mysa’s technology enhances its Sensi portfolio and reinforces the company’s commitment to delivering innovative, sustainable products. For Mysa, the relationship opens new channels to scale its presence in the highly competitive and geographically vast U.S. market.
Copeland’s extensive national HVACR and electrical distribution network gives Mysa access to an established ecosystem of contractors, distributors, and installers across the country. These relationships are crucial in a market where consumer trust and accessibility play a significant role in product adoption. Additionally, Copeland’s reputation for exceptional customer service, technical expertise, and proximity to end-users further strengthens Mysa’s entry into the U.S. wholesale and retail sectors.
Brendan O’Toole, Vice President of Smart Home and Energy Management at Copeland, underscored the significance of the collaboration: “Baseboard heating systems are commonly used in the U.S., particularly in older homes, so adding Mysa products to our smart thermostat portfolio allows us to provide more people with smart, sustainable thermostat solutions. Copeland Partnership has a legacy of creating innovative climate solutions that provide real tangible value to our customers. This partnership allows us to drive more impact, together.”
Smart Thermostats: A Key Player in Energy Transition
Smart thermostats are increasingly recognized as vital tools in the global push toward energy efficiency and sustainability. Copeland’s Sensi line, which already boasts more than 23 million installations across U.S. homes and buildings, is estimated to save users up to 23% on their HVAC energy usage annually. These savings are not just beneficial for individual homeowners—they also help reduce the strain on national power grids and facilitate the integration of renewable energy sources.
During periods of high electricity demand, smart thermostats can participate in utility demand response programs, temporarily reducing energy consumption in a coordinated way. This helps utilities balance the grid more effectively, especially during heatwaves or cold snaps, and makes it easier to incorporate intermittent energy sources like wind and solar into the grid. In this way, the adoption of smart thermostats contributes to broader efforts to decarbonize the energy system and achieve net-zero emissions.
Mysa’s smart thermostats are similarly equipped to deliver both comfort and sustainability benefits. Designed specifically for high-voltage heating systems, Mysa thermostats provide homeowners with detailed energy usage insights, cost estimates, scheduling tools, and climate alerts. These features empower users to make smarter decisions about their energy consumption, reduce waste, and ultimately lower their utility bills.
Both Mysa and Sensi thermostats are compatible with major smart home platforms, including Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit. This cross-compatibility ensures users can integrate climate control seamlessly into their broader smart home ecosystems, creating a unified and convenient user experience.
A Shared Vision for Climate Impact
The underlying ethos of the Copeland-Mysa partnership is a shared commitment to sustainability and climate action. Since launching in 2016, Mysa estimates its smart thermostat users have collectively saved over 150 million kilowatt-hours of electricity—enough to power approximately 10,000 homes for an entire year. These savings translate into significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, making Mysa a meaningful contributor to the fight against climate change.
Josh Green, CEO of Mysa, reflected on the company’s mission and its new phase of growth in the U.S.: “Since our story began in 2016, our smart thermostats have saved more than 150 million kilowatt hours of home energy. By expanding into the U.S. market in partnership with Copeland, we’re amplifying our ability to fight climate change on a much bigger scale—one smart thermostat at a time.”
This partnership is about more than just expanding market reach; it’s about empowering homeowners to play an active role in the transition to a cleaner, more sustainable future. By combining Copeland’s manufacturing expertise and market infrastructure with Mysa’s cutting-edge technology, the two companies aim to accelerate the adoption of smart climate control across North America.
A Future Built on Innovation
As Copeland continues to innovate in climate technologies and energy management, its investment in partnerships like the one with Mysa signals a long-term strategy focused on sustainability, digital integration, and customer empowerment. With homes accounting for a significant share of global energy use and carbon emissions, expanding the range and availability of smart, efficient solutions will be critical to achieving environmental targets.
For homeowners, this means greater access to user-friendly tools that make it easier to reduce energy consumption, increase comfort, and participate in grid-level energy solutions. For the broader industry, the Copeland-Mysa partnership exemplifies how collaboration can create win-win scenarios that drive market growth while delivering measurable environmental benefits.
