Redback

Redback Technologies is one of the few genuinely Australian-designed battery storage companies, founded in Brisbane in 2015. The company designs its hybrid inverters and storage systems locally, with a focus on the specific needs of Australian households and grid conditions.

Redback's Smart Hybrid System integrates inverter and battery management in an all-in-one solution, designed specifically for Australian electrical standards and climate conditions. Their focus on local design means features are tailored for Australian tariff structures, backup requirements, and VPP participation.

Being Australian-headquartered provides advantages in support response times and understanding of local regulations. When Western Power requirements change or new VPP programs launch, Redback can adapt quickly without waiting for overseas engineering teams.

The company offers both integrated all-in-one systems (Smart Hybrid System) and modular battery packs that work with their inverters. While smaller than global competitors, Redback has built a loyal following among installers who appreciate the local support and product suitability for Australian conditions.
