SimpliPhi Launches “Energize America: Prepare & Respond” Campaign, Bringing Affordable Energy Storage Solutions to Homeowners and Businesses

California-based company and participating distributors provide relief through discounts and expedited shipping on wall-mountable batteries and portable emergency power kits.

[OXNARD, CA] Given the volatile and unpredictable scale of recent storms, SimpliPhi

Power - now part of Briggs and Stratton - is providing reduced pricing on
wall-mountable PHI 3.8 kWh Battery, Big Genny Emergency Power Kit, and Little
Genny Power Kit through October 31, 2022.
Customer-sited battery storage is a critical solution that creates reliable backup
power in the face of growing threats to the centralized grid, whether at home, at
work, or on-the-go during evacuations. That is why SimpliPhi is committed to
Energizing America, a campaign designed to raise awareness and offer discounts to
prepare and equip home and business owners with critical battery backup as
extreme weather continues to cause widespread power outages across the U.S.,
putting people, businesses, and communities at risk. The urgency and sheer numbers
of people across the country facing power outages inspired SimpliPhi to create the
campaign and offer additional coverage to the entire U.S. and territories.
In recent weeks, Hurricane Fiona battered Puerto Rico, which left 13 dead and
hundreds of thousands without clean water or power. The storm hit on the fifth
anniversary of Hurricane Maria, which claimed the lives of 3,000 and caused massive
infrastructure damage and power outages. Two weeks after Fiona, over 100,000
Puerto Rican residents are still without access to grid power.
Ten days after Fiona, Hurricane Ian slammed into the west coast of Florida as a
Category 4 storm, significantly damaging coastal communities and inundating the
mainland, wiping out utility power lines. It then traveled across the state and back
into the ocean, hitting South Carolina and parts of Georgia as a Category 1 hurricane.
As it traveled, the storm continued to bring heavy rain and severe winds to North
Carolina and Virginia. Collectively, 3.4 million people lost access to grid power - with
2.7 million customer outages in Florida alone.
It's clear that Americans need distributed customer-sited energy storage in their
homes and businesses in order to have critical backup power when centralized
utility-scale generation, transmission and distribution fails. As Catherine Von Burg,
CEO of SimpliPhi Power, observes "Utilities are failing to deliver on their promise to
provide reliable and affordable access to power. Centralized generation, transmission
and distribution infrastructure is antiquated and inadequate, failing to meet the
escalating demand on the grid with electrification and EV charging, even in the best
of times - pre-hurricane season."
Distributed, customer-sited energy storage creates resilient homes, businesses, and
communities. SimpliPhi has proven energy storage solutions that are safe, reliable,
and cost-effective. The company has been deploying energy storage and
management systems globally since its founding in 2010. With a proven track record
of performance for over a decade, the company has solved problems around
resilience and access to energy in some of the harshest environments and most
challenging use cases globally, spanning territories in over 45 countries.
SimpliPhi's products provide a safer alternative to typical cobalt-based lithium-ion
batteries that are prone to thermal runaway and fires. The company only uses lithium
iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry, which does not contain cobalt or pose a risk to
customers needing emergency backup power.
Have an existing generator? SimpliPhi battery systems can even optimize generators,
reducing run-times and fuel costs, creating additional security and savings during
prolonged outages when fuel is often scarce.
Together with the backing of the nation's most trusted energy solutions providers,
Briggs and Stratton - SimpliPhi Power is committed to providing all of the necessary
resources to Energize America. Get connected to a participating distributor or
