Masters of the Off-Grid™ The team at OutBack Power has decades of pioneering experience perfecting power conversion technologies. OutBack was started as a company to develop a breakthrough in power-conversion technology: a pure sine-wave inverter in modular form, one capable of producing cleaner, more reliable electricity than that available even from typical electrical grids—and adaptable to nearly any system configuration through building-block design. OutBack’s first innovation meant that an off-grid or grid-interactive system could now meet and even exceed the rapidly-evolving...

First choice for the new grid OutBack Power’s legendary off-grid performance and reliability are the platform for grid-connected systems for users with higher expectations and demands of their energy investment. Because battery-back up and advanced digital switching technology is part of the “brand DNA,” OutBack excels at power-conversion products designed for the emerging Grid/Hybrid™ category—systems that can provide both grid-tied economies during normal times, and off-grid independence when the grid’s down during outages and emergencies. Grid/Hybrid technology is the key for getting the...

OutBack’s new Radian series of Grid/Hybrid inverters demonstrates leadership and commitment in developing and building smarter, more agile products capable of meeting the demands of next-generation renewable and back-up energy systems. Whether a solar panel array, wind turbine, hydro electric plant, or a generator, an energy source is just that: the first step in a complete energy solution. It is the rest of the package— the “balance-of-system” components— that do the work in managing and delivering power. OutBack Power is an expert in balance-of-system technology, precision-engineering and...
