If you live in an apartment with a balcony and want a plug-and-play solar and battery storage system, EcoFlow may have just the solution.

EcoFlow has launched the PowerStream Balcony Solar System, which it claims is “the first balcony solar system with a portable power station” that can reduce apartment dwellers’ power bills and provide battery storage backup. (I’d like to point out, though, that Zendure made the same claim at the end of March.)

It’s comprised of solar panels, a power station, cables, an inverter, and smart plugs. But the PowerStream is compatible with all EcoFlow portable power stations, so if you already own one, then you’ll save money. Users monitor and optimize the system with the EcoFlow app.

It plugs directly into electrical outlets, and no installation is necessary. Plus, it comes with flat cables, so you don’t have to drill holes to run wires between the indoors and the outdoors.
