Mini-grid for extended family - NZ Homestead gets private power
The power supply at Tim and Fiona's homestead in Auckland, New Zealand is distributed from a micro grid which serves their extended family of eight, across three tiny homes, the main residence, and large workshop.
Reducing the Risk of Battery Thermal Runaway
One solution to reducing the risk of a battery fire are infrared cameras. Infrared fire detection systems monitor large areas and are able to detect heat releasing from battery packs or single batteries.
Thermal Battery Technology
Relying on lithium-ion batteries, which are expensive and require the mining of critical minerals, will not be sufficient or even feasible for the scale at which we will need energy storage to achieve a fully renewable grid.

How to Ensure Safety under UL 3741 - Understanding the Risks and Limitations of Some Solutions Without DC Optimization
Here SolarEdge Technologies discusses how misinterpretation of the standard in some solutions may be putting firefighters at risk, and the possible implications for the PV industry.
4 Innovations in Lithium-Ion Battery Manufacturing
In this article, we will examine four key innovations that are revolutionizing the manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries that will power the electric vehicles of the future.
Long-Duration Energy Storage in the U.S.
Many battery manufacturers are currently focused on solutions for long-duration needs, especially as clean energy generation from renewables becomes more prevalent.
The Bluetti EP800 Off-Grid Energy Storage System
Bluetti EP800 system is an off-grid energy storage system. It composes of an EP800 inverter and several B500 batteries. The system is also modular so homeowners can customize their own EP800 systems based on their own needs.
Increasing Life and Cylce Life of Energy Storage Systems
CATL also developed the world's first solar-plus-storage solution with zero auxiliary power supply. It can achieve real-time linkage and interaction of PV and BESS
Leveraging Energy Storage for Demand Response in Microgrids
Associating a value of resilience for backup power can help end users understand the value of their energy storage investment. Now, an increasing number of utilities are offering payouts for battery participation in the grid as well.
Advantages of an All-in-One Off Grid Energy Storage System
Our market research indicates that, out of the people shopping for off-grid systems, 64% want to buy a full system and only 36% want individual parts. 60% want the project to be DIY.

HPS EnduraCoilTM Cast Resin Medium Voltage Transformer
HPS EnduraCoil is a high-performance cast resin transformer designed for many demanding and diverse applications while minimizing both installation and maintenance costs. Coils are formed with mineral-filled epoxy, reinforced with fiberglass and cast to provide complete void-free resin impregnation throughout the entire insulation system. HPS EnduraCoil complies with the new NRCan 2019 and DOE 2016 efficiency regulations and is approved by both UL and CSA standards. It is also seismic qualified per IBC 2012/ASCE 7-10/CBC 2013. Cast resin transformers are self-extinguishing in the unlikely event of fire, environmentally friendly and offer greater resistance to short circuits. HPS also offers wide range of accessories for transformer protection and monitoring requirements.
