Fiona-Proof Your Home in PEI: The Power of Battery Storage

Fiona-Proof Your Home in PEI: The Power of Battery Storage

Post-tropical storm Fiona was a stark reminder of how vulnerable we can be when the power grid goes down. High winds, severe rain, and prolonged outages left many PEI residents without electricity for days. But it doesn’t have to be that way next time. With the EP Cube battery—a robust, all-in-one energy storage solution—you can store energy from the grid or your solar panels and keep the lights on, even during the worst storms.

Why Battery Storage Matters on PEI

  1. Severe Weather Preparedness
    Hurricanes and post-tropical storms aren’t new to Prince Edward Island, but Fiona taught us just how critical it is to be prepared. A battery storage system like the EP Cube ensures you have backup power when utility lines are down or under repair.
  2. Energy Independence
    If you already have solar panels, the EP Cube lets you store excess sunlight for later use. That means when a storm hits, you’ll have clean, free energy ready to go. Even without solar, you can charge your battery from the grid during off-peak hours and use that stored power when rates spike—or when the lights go out.
  3. Quick Recharge Times
    As soon as the storm passes and the sun comes out, the EP Cube starts collecting solar energy again—rapidly recharging your battery so you can get back to your normal routine.
  4. Safe & Reliable Design
    Built with LiFePO4 batteries and tested to meet UL 9540A standards, the EP Cube is designed to resist thermal runaway and has a longer lifespan than many conventional battery systems. In other words, it’s built to handle PEI’s unpredictable weather.

How the EP Cube Keeps Your Home Powered

  • All-in-One Solution: The EP Cube integrates a hybrid inverter and stackable battery modules. Fewer separate components mean a simpler, more reliable setup—perfect for those who want a minimal-fuss backup plan.
  • Expandable Capacity: Start with the battery size you need now and easily add modules later. Whether you have a small cottage or a large farm, the EP Cube can scale up to meet your energy demands.
  • Smart App Monitoring: Gain real-time insights into your energy consumption and battery levels. Adjust settings, schedule charging, and get notifications straight to your phone—even if you’re off-island.
