Alpha-ESS is a global developer of energy storage systems for the home. The company was founded in 2012 as a collaboration between companies from three continents and is looking to quickly make inroads in Australia by offering intelligent, affordable and flexible battery storage solutions. Alpha-ESS has three main offerings: Its all-in-one, plug-and-play, lithium-ion Storion solution, its lead-crystal Alpha-Centauri solution, and its PowerPlug lithium-ion battery bank.
Alpha-ESS Storion
The Storion is a complete, intelligent cabinet-based energy storage solution using lithium-iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries, which are available in modular 3kWh units. Storion’s battery capacity can be expanded up to 18kWh, and its built-in hybrid 3kW and 5kW inverters can handle both battery and PV inputs, enabling a wide range of possible designs and applications. It also comes equipped with an adaptable energy management system (EMS) to maximise energy bill savings according to how the system is set up.
Key product features & benefits:
Advanced design and functionality at competitive price-point
Multifunctional, plug-and-play energy storage system for a wide range of applications
Safe, reliable LiFePO4 batteries from some of the world’s largest battery manufacturers; each battery unit has sophisticated battery management system (BMS) with multi-layered safety protections
Grid backup functionality allows essential loads to run on solar and/or batteries even when the grid is down.
Modular battery design – battery capacity can be sized to meet individual needs or for future expansion
Intelligent EMS(Alpha Cloud) manages prioritisation of solar, grid or batteries depending on availability in order to maximise savings and overall system efficiency
Programmable Time of Use features allow smart energy control with off-peak charging and peak time discharging
5-year product warranty and 10-year battery performance warranty
Alpha-ESS’s Alpha-Centauri is the company’s entry-level energy storage solution using lead crystal batteries, bringing down the cost point compared to the company’s LiFePO4 offerings. The Alpha-Centauri comes equipped with an intelligent EMS that maximises savings – and allows essential loads to remain running in the event of a blackout.
Key product features & benefits:
More cost-competitive option compared to Storion
Safe, easily transportable lead crystal batteries
Backup power for essential loads in the event of grid failure

The PowerPlug is Alpha-ESS’s ‘stripped down’, battery-only offering. Coming in an easily movable, bar fridge-sized cabinet, the PowerPlug can house up to 12kWh of LiFePO4 battery capacity in 3kWh segments, each with their own battery management system to ensure maximum safety and battery life. The PowerPlug can be attached to a preexisting solar system with a hybrid inverter, or with a newly installed battery inverter from compatible manufacturers.
Key product features & benefits:
5-year product warranty and 10-year battery performance warranty with an expected 20-year operational life
Safe, reliable LiFePO4 batteries from some of the world’s largest battery manufacturers; each battery unit has sophisticated battery management system (BMS) with multi-layered safety protections
Modular battery design – battery capacity can be sized to meet individual needs or for future expansion
