EcoFlow PowerOcean 6kW Hybrid Home Backup & Solar Battery System

Installed whole-home backup

Automatic backup power when the grid goes off

The EcoFlow PowerOcean 6kW is a professionally installed home backup system that connects into your home’s electrical setup, giving you automatic backup power when Eskom or municipal grid supply is interrupted. Instead of plugging appliances into portable power stations one by one, PowerOcean is designed to support your home through an integrated DB-board backup solution.

For South African households dealing with load shedding, load reduction and local power interruptions, this is a cleaner and more practical way to keep your essentials running. Your lights, Wi-Fi, security, refrigeration, entertainment and work-from-home equipment can stay powered without cables running from room to room.

Beyond portable power stations

A smarter upgrade for EcoFlow owners

EcoFlow portable power stations are extremely popular in South Africa because they are reliable, flexible and easy to use. They are excellent for camping, home offices, individual appliances and emergency backup.

But once you are using multiple portable units around the house, the setup becomes less elegant. You need to charge each unit, move them around, run extension cords, and manually decide what gets powered. PowerOcean is the next step: a fixed, installed EcoFlow system designed around your home’s actual electrical circuits.

Backup now. Solar savings next.

Use it as backup only, or connect solar panels to save on electricity

PowerOcean is a hybrid home energy system. That means you can use it as a backup power solution for outages, or connect compatible solar panels so your home can store solar energy and reduce grid electricity usage.

This is important for South African homeowners because the product solves two problems: power interruptions and rising electricity costs. Start with backup protection, then add solar to turn the system into a daily energy-saving asset.

Built for South African grid conditions

Designed for load shedding, load reduction and everyday energy resilience

South African homes need more than a temporary backup plan. Between load shedding, load reduction, local outages, ageing infrastructure and rising electricity costs, homeowners are looking for energy systems that can protect the home and reduce long-term reliance on the grid.

The EcoFlow PowerOcean 6kW is designed for that reality. It gives your home automatic backup when grid power is interrupted, while also giving you the option to connect solar panels and use stored solar energy to reduce daily electricity costs.

6kW single-phase system

Whole-home backup, professionally configured

The EcoFlow PowerOcean 6kW Single-Phase system is designed to give your home a cleaner, more integrated backup experience than portable power stations and extension cords. Connected into your home’s electrical setup, it can power your home automatically when the grid goes down, so your daily routine continues with far less interruption.

For many South African homes, a 6kW system can support a wide range of everyday household loads, including lights, Wi-Fi, security systems, refrigeration, entertainment, home office equipment, kitchen appliances, pool pumps and general plug circuits. The exact setup depends on your home’s appliance load, battery capacity, solar configuration and desired runtime.

During a consultation, EcoHub can help configure the PowerOcean system around the way your home actually uses electricity. High-demand loads such as electric geysers and large air-conditioning systems can be reviewed as part of the design, ensuring the system is set up sensibly without compromising backup reliability.

Modular battery capacity

Choose the backup runtime that suits your home

The EcoFlow PowerOcean 6kW system is available with modular battery capacity, so you can choose a setup that matches the way your home uses power. The inverter provides the 6kW single-phase output, while the battery capacity determines how long your home can stay powered and how much solar energy you can store for later use.

Start with a 5kWh battery configuration for a compact installed backup system, step up to 10kWh for longer household runtime, or choose 15kWh for the strongest single-inverter battery configuration currently available in this range. Each option gives you the same clean, automatic backup experience — the difference is how much stored energy you have available.

Smart energy visibility

See how your home uses power

With the EcoFlow app and web portal, PowerOcean gives you visibility over your home energy system from your phone or computer. You can monitor power flow, view generation and consumption data, and understand how your battery, solar input and household usage are working together.

This is especially useful when PowerOcean is connected to solar panels. Instead of guessing how much energy your home is using, you can see how the system is performing and make smarter decisions about backup, solar storage and grid usage.

Professionally installed

Designed around your home, not a one-size-fits-all kit

PowerOcean is a professionally installed home energy system, configured around your property’s electrical setup, battery requirements and energy goals. Whether you want backup protection only or a solar-connected system for long-term electricity savings, the right configuration starts with understanding how your home uses power.

EcoHub can help assess your DB board, household load profile, desired backup runtime, available installation space and future solar plans. This ensures your PowerOcean system is designed properly from the start — giving you a cleaner, safer and more reliable alternative to portable backup around the home.

Start with a 5kWh battery configuration for a compact installed backup system, step up to 10kWh for longer household runtime, or choose 15kWh for the strongest single-inverter battery configuration currently available in this range. Each option gives you the same clean, automatic backup experience — the difference is how much stored energy you have available.
