Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	NOTE 1— BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Acorn Energy, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. Certain reclassifications have been made to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 to conform to the current period’s condensed consolidated financial statement presentation. There was no effect on total assets, equity and net loss. A reclassification of $6,000 from interest expense to SG&A expense was recorded to reclass the Intuit processing fees for customer payments made through the Intuit portal via credit card or bank draft that was previously included in interest expense as of March 31, 2019 and is included in SG&A as of March 31, 2020. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
