"The Australian home battery outfit whose customers include federal energy
minister Chris Bowen has a new all-in-one residential solution in the works
that will combine solar, storage and bidirectional electric vehicle (EV)
charging, in a bid to streamline distributed energy with electric mobility.

The new product, billed as the world’s first residential “microgrid-in-a-box”
(MIB), is the result of a partnership between Australian battery maker
RedEarth, China’s Nebula Electronics and Germany’s ambibox.

RedEarth says the “technical alliance” will leverage each party’s core
competencies in technology innovation, industrial manufacturing and localised
market operations to deliver a “scalable and affordable energy management and
distribution system.”

RedEarth CEO Marc Sheldon says the main thing to note about the new battery is
that “it’s not just a battery,” but rather “a combination of pretty much
everything” needed to run an efficient electric home and car.

“We’ll take the solar inverter, we’ll take the hybrid inverter, we’ll take the
[bi-directional] EV charger and a few other things and we’ll put it all into
one system, which is modular and software driven.”"
