New home energy system promises bigger savings and smarter energy use
The modular system starts with a 5kWh battery and can expand with the EcoFlow Gateway, while Local Mode arrives in September.
On August 21, EcoFlow unveiled its new STREAM Series in the UK, aiming to make home battery technology more accessible to households managing rising electricity costs.
Growing demand for independent power prompted development of the compact 5kWh battery, designed to fit into garages and utility rooms while powering appliances like washing machines and dishwashers.
The system delivers up to 3,000W AC output and 5,000W of solar input, featuring a new Local Mode for offline control and IP65 weather protection with a 10-year warranty.
Professional installation by a certified electrician is required, though the EcoFlow STREAM Gateway allows users to expand their setup to support heat pumps and electric vehicle charging.
Pre-Orders opened August 21 with early bird pricing at £1,499 for the STREAM AC 5000, as the company aims to reach millions of users globally.
