BLUETTI unveils solution to help South Africa tackle power outages.

BLUETTI, a global leader in the clean energy storage industry has launched effective solutions to combat load shedding as countries grapple with energy crisis.

Recently, South Africa has been grappling with the pressing issue of load shedding, and experts warn that this power crisis may persist until the end of next year.

In seven months to July, the total hours of living in darkness in South Africa amounted to 49 days, reaching a grim milestone in the nation's history.

BLUETTI has launched several power backups to help countries like South Africa break away from perennial power outages that saw the country loss R560 billion in 2022.

Updated figures in December shows that the annual load-shedding toll has increased to 260 per cent when compared to 2021.During the period, there was a total of 6,400 GWh of unserved energy in the country. For instance, AC200MAX+B230 is a scalable home backup power that features a substantial 2,048Wh battery capacity and a powerful 2,200W AC output (4,800W surge). The 16-outlet power station provides uninterrupted power to most household appliances and essential devices during load shedding, including refrigerators, air conditioners, and electric ovens.

A notable feature of BLUETTIs flagship product is its expandability. It lets you increase the total capacity to 6,144Wh by adding two 2,048Wh B230 battery units. It can power a 150W refrigerator for 10 hours, a 10W light bulb for over 150 hours, and a 5000 BTU AC for approximately 1-4 hours. By adding B230 battery units, the user can extend the power supply to these appliances twice or even thrice the duration.

The AC200MAX offers 7 charging methods, such as solar, car charging, and AC power, either separately or in combination, for flexible and fast recharging. On the other hand, EP500Pro is a powerful and robust generator with a massive 5,100Wh capacity and an impressive 3,000W
