Say bye-bye to blackouts

When the power goes out, you shouldn’t be left in the dark. In the event of a blackout, your Hybrid Battery System can use stored solar energy to keep your essentials up and running – meaning.

When the grid goes down, the backup circuit will kick in automatically, as long as you have battery power available. Don’t let a power outage ruin your evening, when you could power through with a Redback Hybrid Battery System.

Keep charging your batteries when the grid is down

A blackout shouldn’t have to interrupt your day. Redback’s Hybrid Battery System allows you to continue charging your solar storage using the sun, even when the grid is down. This functionality, called ‘blackstart’, is a game changer if you live in an area susceptible to extended blackouts lasting several days.

With the Hybrid Battery System’s inbuilt blackstart capability, you can continue to power your essential appliances using the sun until the grid connection is restored.

Versatile Installation

Whether you prefer an indoor or outdoor setup, our systems offer installation flexibility with minimal exposed wiring, ensuring seamless integration with your home’s aesthetics.

Some of the most common questions we hear

Installing a hybrid solution allows you to get all of the benefits of a separate solar inverter and battery storage, but in one aesthetically appealing unit.

This means that you can avoid unsightly and unsafe excess cabling as the wiring is hidden in our IP55-protected cabinetry.

This lack of exposed cabling also allows for a safer, cleaner installation, making it well-suited for garage or outdoor applications.

A solar hybrid system’s lifespan is a testament to its quality. The batteries used in Redback systems are designed to endure, even in the harshest Australian weather conditions. Typically, these solar batteries have a life expectancy of 8,000 cycles, a lifespan that could potentially last 20 years or more when cycled once per day. With our advanced battery enclosure and unique design, you can be confident that your investment in our solar and battery solutions will stand the test of time.

Our Hybrid Battery System contains batteries that capture and store excess solar power generated by your solar panels during the day. When the sun isn’t shining, instead of drawing power from the grid, your home uses this stored energy.

Essentially, our Redback Hybrid Battery System System acts as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), ensuring you have access to your own renewable energy today, and every day. This not only reduces your dependency on the grid and energy retailers, but can also ensure power during a prolonged grid outage or ‘blackout’.

The duration your Smart Hybrid System battery will provide power during night time depends on its capacity and your household’s energy consumption. With our Redback solar battery storage, many homeowners find they can easily navigate through the night, especially if they’ve had a sunny day to charge the battery fully. In the event of more extended periods without sunlight, our system seamlessly integrates with the grid to ensure uninterrupted power.

ith the Redback Hybrid Battery System, monitoring your solar system’s usage is straightforward. Our user-friendly interface allows homeowners to track their energy consumption in real-time. This not only keeps you informed, but empowers you to make decisions that can lead to even greater energy savings.

You can view this data on the MyRedback app or Redback Portal.

Absolutely! If your solar panels generate more energy than your home uses and your solar battery storage is full, the excess solar power can be fed back into the grid. Many energy providers offer buy-back schemes, known as Feed-In-Tariffs, allowing homeowners to receive bill credits for their contributions.
