Briggs & Stratton and EG4 have established a new working relationship. Briggs & Stratton SimpliPHI 6.6 batteries and PowerProtect standby generators now integrate with EG4 inverters.
“This partnership brings together two strong entities. EG4 is a recognized leader in the inverter market and Briggs & Stratton has been a leader in power solutions across a diverse set of markets for more than 117 years,” said Tom Rugg, SVP & President – Briggs & Stratton Energy Solutions. “This strategic partnership allows us to continue to offer more options for installers, including hybrid energy solutions with both batteries and generators.”
Briggs & Stratton’s new lineup of Battery Backup Packages feature the company’s SimpliPHI 6.6 stackable batteries paired with EG4 Inverters, providing an easy way for installers to meet customers’ power needs with Essential Power, Managed Power and Whole Home Power options.
The Briggs & Stratton battery packages seamlessly integrate with EG4’s 12KPV and 18KPV all-in-one hybrid inverters. Briggs & Stratton batteries and generators also integrate with FlexBOSS18 and FlexBOSS21 hybrid inverters and the GridBOSS microgrid interconnect device (MID), which pairs with the FlexBOSS line of inverters. The full closed-loop integration for advanced communication with all EG4 inverters makes commissioning and operation smoother and more efficient.
The EG4 inverters offer flexible installation options and enhanced power output, making them an accessible entry point into hybrid solar without compromising on performance. The EG4 FlexBOSS21, FlexBOSS18 and 18KPV inverters are also EMP-hardened, ensuring reliable performance during Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) events.
In addition, EG4 inverters now integrate with Briggs & Stratton’s PowerProtect home standby generators.
“Our collaboration with Briggs & Stratton combines EG4’s advanced energy storage systems with their proven generator and storage technologies to give customers more ways to achieve reliable, uninterrupted power,” said James Showalter, founder and CEO of EG4. “Whether pairing EG4 ESS with Briggs & Stratton generators for seamless backup or utilizing the new compatibility between the SimpliPHI 6.6 battery system and EG4 inverters, with this partnership we are making it easier than ever to build the right solution for energy independence.”
