Asturian Bexie exports technology to Ukraine to combat mass blackouts.
For two and a half years, the following scene has unfortunately become commonplace in Ukraine: families suddenly plunged into darkness. Not only in their homes, but in their neighbors’ homes, throughout the entire building, throughout the entire neighborhood, throughout the entire city, throughout the entire region. Sudden power outages due to Russian attacks on the country’s electrical infrastructure and the resulting blackouts implemented by the Ukrainian government to compensate for the supply deficit have been a constant occurrence since the Russian invasion in February 2022, forcing citizens to seek alternative sources of energy and continue their lives as normally as possible in a war that has claimed tens of thousands of lives.
Asturias is doing its part to alleviate this shortage. The Oviedo-based company Bexie Group, Dedicated to the manufacture of batteries for storing energy and chargers for electric vehicles, it has developed autonomous energy storage systems designed for emergency situations (wars, climatic disasters, etc.) in which it is difficult or impossible to access an electricity grid.
It’s abour your ALL-IN-ONE dWeighing about 25 kilos, it’s similar in size to a suitcase. Its power ranges from 600 to 1,000 watts and it can hold up to six batteries. It can operate either connected to a home power grid or autonomously (this would be its true purpose in crisis scenarios). It can be operated via a small screen or through a mobile app, as it has a Wi-Fi connection.
Precisely because it’s designed for emergency situations, the device can be set up in less than ten minutes. It’s also temperature-resistant to minus 15 degrees Celsius and is protected against dust and water jets.
Ukrainian companies have recently partnered to purchase batches of this equipment to address the country’s frequent power outages, according to sources at Bexie Group. “The deployment of these units represents crucial support for Ukraine’s electrical system in times of such extreme need,” the sources noted.
Our products call “Micro All-in-One“, It was designed by the company’s staff spread across Asturias and China. In China, the company has factories in Shangqiu, Wuxi, and Shanghai. There, Bexie produces batteries for energy storage, chargers for electric vehicles, and inverters that harness the power generated by solar panels. The “All-in-One” is a hybrid product, a combination of a battery and inverter.
80% of the products are destined for export, with destinations—in addition to Ukraine—including England, Lithuania, Cyprus, Greece, Italy, Austria, Germany, Bosnia and Herzegovina, France, and Poland.
