New US-made residential LFP battery, inverter, and also monitoring system

• Briggs & Stratton released the SimpliPHI energy storage system with lithium-ferro-phosphate chemistry.

Briggs & Stratton, which got The golden state battery maker SimpliPHI Power late in 2021, revealed the launch of the SimpliPHI Energy Storage System (ESS), with the product available to order beginning June 14. The incorporated, scalable option starts with three core elements, a 6 kW inverter, 4.9 kWh battery, and a proprietary monitoring system. The system will certainly be on screen at the RE+ conference in Anaheim this September.

The battery utilizes lithium-ferro-phosphate (LFP) chemistry, which is known for its benefit of having actually a minimized fire danger when contrasted to conventional lithium-ion batteries. It negates the use of cobalt, a steel associated with health hazards, as well as a key culprit in battery fires.

"Our energy storage services are held to industry-leading standards. From the chemistry, form factor as well as production procedures of the batteries to the testing as well as recognition requirements on behalf of our customers, we seek to provide a much safer as well as much more reliable option," stated Catherine Von Burg, president and chief executive officer, SimpliPHI Power.

The 6 kW inverter has integrated multiple power point tracking for solar or utility charging in either DC paired or retrofit AC coupled systems. The inverter's eight-millisecond switchover time avoids flickering lights and also tools damage associated with power failures. It is enhanced for the LFP battery, and scalable in 6 kW increments.

The battery has a closed-loop interactions system in its battery monitoring system, which practically integrates with the inverter as well as exclusive EnergyTrak administration software. It is scalable from one module to 72, for an overall energy storage capacity of approximately 358.5 kWh. The battery and also inverter are both IP65 ranked for both indoor and also outdoor usage.

The monitoring system enables users to manage energy use through a mobile application that gives real-time standing and also updates. The system makes it possible for efficiency optimization, increases utility expense savings, and also produces energy safety for clients.

"With aging power grids, more constant blackouts and uncertain weather patterns, the addition of the SimpliPHI ESS to our product schedule is another remedy for individuals looking for an ingenious, scalable energy system for their house or service," claimed Tom Rugg, president, Energy Solutions at Briggs & Stratton.

SimpliPHI batteries are backed with over 110 years of power experience, with batteries released in over 40 countries. The tools includes six to 10 years minimal warranties. The batteries are capable of combination with solar arrays, the power grid, and also backup generators.
