Simpl custom-engineered the enclosure using a polycarbonate that is certified to UL 94 5VA standards, keeps the heat out of the box and is shatter-proof, crush-proof and impact resistant.

SimplBackUp is an energy storage system that is installed underneath individual solar panels. SimplBackUp saves money while grid is functioning and provides scalable backup power during an outage.  It is modular, light-weight, safe and easy to install.  In addition, since it is only charged from a solar panel, it qualifies for full investment tax credit (~30%).

  • Highest Safety Rating

    Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery cells for ultimate in safety and durability.

  • Simple Installation

    Mounts directly under a solar panel.

  • Lowest Cost

    Accounting for the fact that the installation cost is virtually zero and no additional expense is required for inverters, SimplBackUp is the lowest cost energy storage system in the market today.

  • Unlimited Compatibility

    Same unit works with all solar panels with a wide variety of voltage ranges from 60-cell to 96-cell.

  • Buy What You Need

    SimplBox may be installed in increments as small as 1/2 kWh.  Unlike other energy storage products, you don’t have to buy large chunks of energy storage at a time.

  • No Space Needed

    SimplBox installs in the empty space under a solar panel.

  • Superior Reliability

    Our patent-pending technology provided us with the clear advantage of building SimplBox without mechanical relays, electrolytic capacitors, etc.  We even eliminated the on/off button.  Hence we provide a 20-year warranty for SimplBackUp.

  • No Inverter Needed

    The same inverter that is used for solar is used for SimplBackUp.  During an outage, SimplBackUp’s internal grid forming microinverter becomes operational once the system is automatically disconnects from the grid and islands itself.

  • Advanced Software

    SimplWeb, remote, web-based controls allowing for continuously adjusting system algorithms and controls to optimize savings.

Applications

Demand Shaving

Demand Shaving

Utilize stored energy to discharge when peak loads are at its highest for the month to save on the largest contributor to the electrical bill.

Time of Use

Time of Use Shifting

Store energy when the value of electricity is cheap and deploy when its most expensive.

Solar Self Supply

Solar Self Supply

Store excess solar power where net metering isn’t allowed or limited and use your power when you need most.

Backup Power

Backup Power

Keep your critical loads operating with solar and storage when power outages occur at your home or business.

Microgrid

Microgrid

Go off grid to give you utility independence.

Voltage Sag Protection

Utility Ancillary Services

Protect equipment from inconsistency of grid stability from variations in power quality.
