So How Does It Work?

Want to talk about your power requirements?

Our expert team are here to help provide the best solution for you.

Efficiency, Made Easy

All the muscle of a heavy lead-acid based system but with a fraction of the weight and more energy storage. The Hub is a lightweight and compact lithium solution means less engine idle time, fewer harmful emissions, lighter payloads and a longer service life.  

Cobalt and our Anti Slavery Policy

All our primary lithium components are responsibly sourced and contain absolutely no cobalt.

We endeavour to complete due diligence to ensure that we will clearly not directly or indirectly support modern slavery. As such we are proud to provide an anti-slavery statement with every hub, whenever requested.

Big Energy, Small Footprint.

Not only does the Energy Hub offer a greater storage capacity, but you also get the ability to fast charge, a built-in 60A DC-DC charger, programable DC / AC outputs and a high-grade LiFePo4 lithium battery that offers four times as many cycles a traditional AGM solution.

 

Easy to Install

The Energy Hub requires just three major connections to get up and running - simple colour coded Anderson connections are provided for a swift and easy install.

Up to 60A of DC to DC charging keeps the Energy Hub topped up whilst you're driving.

REDbiggerAC

Power Inverter

230V Ouput with a pure sinewave Inverter from 700W to 2000W, supplied with every hub.

c13

DC Distribution

The C13 module provides programmable 12V output for all your DC loads.

ALTERNATOR

Connects to your vehicle alternator via your starter battery to provide up to 60A of DC-DC charging to your Energy Hub.

230V

The red Anderson port connects the hub up to your pure sine wave power inverter to provide a reliable 230V output for your auxiliary devices.  

C13

The grey Anderson port links your C13 Module for easy and efficient DC distribution. The C13 even has a dedicated 80A output for high powered loads like water heaters.

MEH

The MEH is your remote display and controller that is supplied with every Hub. This can be mounted away from the system for ease of access and provides live information as well as the all important on/off power switch. 

4G

(Optional) The 4G Data stick connects your hub up to the internet for remote monitoring via the TBB Fleet web-app. 

Solar Controller

Simply connect your PV array to a compatible SolarMate MPPT solar controller. With the SP100-20 you can connect a solar array of up to 294W. For larger arrays up to 588W you can opt for the SP100-40.

Wi-Fi Module

Connect your hub to the internet for remote monitoring via the TBB Fleet web app. Using a 4G data sim, your hub provides live data information that's accessible anywhere.

SolarController

Solar Controller

Complete your setup with a SP100 controller and PV array. With our green priority technology, the maximum available solar power will always be used before topping from another charging source.

Advanced Protection

Living with the Energy Hub as a “fit and forget” onboard power system is made easier though our expertly designed protection layers. Including a hibernation protocol that allows your hub to always be recovered, even if it’s not been charged for over 6 months.

3 Year Warranty

3 Year Warranty

Built to last even longer. Plus every hub is covered with lifetime support from our technical team.

Fast Charging

Fast Charging

Safely recharged from 0% to 100%, in only 2 hours of driving, or add solar to your system for a clean and renewable recharge.

Battery Security

Battery Security

The built in BMS (Battery Management System) protects against faults like overload and low state of charge, to ensure your Hub is always readily available. 


With our Low temperature protection and built-in heating element, your battery cells are automatically warmed when an alternator or 230V source is available. Ensuring that you'll always be able to recharge your hub, even in cold conditions when charging would not normally be possible. 

This is just one example of our meticulously designed and sophisticated charging algorithm that makes your Energy Hub experience always reliable and always consistent.

Construction Fleet Excellence

Bri-stor systems are the UK’s largest light commercial vehicle converter and one of our biggest and most important customers. 

We work closely with them to develop and deliver new solutions that will reduce weight, reduce install times, reduce engine idle times, and increase service life and usability. Our aim - to bring new innovation to them so they can also innovate to their customers and be market leaders.

When Bri-Stor were looking for a new auxiliary in-vehicle power system, naturally they turned to us for the solution. 

We launched the Energy Hub formally in early 2022 and since then its been utilised on a number of important trials with very encouraging results. The Energy Hub perfectly hit the brief for a new and updated service fleet for one of the “UK’s leading specialist engineering and construction companies” 

Besides some low power requirements, our solution needed to provide power for tool charging as well as a microwave oven but more importantly, it needed to deliver controllable and regulated, high-current DC. Our system also needed be as lightweight as possible and reduce and emissions through less idling time. On top of all this it needed a reliable service life, the option for remote monitoring / solar charging and also had to be easy to install.

The Solution?  The Energy Hub.
Provided with a TBB Power 1500W AC power inverter, MEH display, solar controller and comms integration - Providing an intelligent solution that includes a Bluetooth APP for programming and 4G remote monitoring.

The Energy Hub excels in its performance and has enabled the roll out of a small but important Bri-stor fleet, as well as being adopted on many more important trials for 2022 and 2023.

Control your Energy Hub experience

The Energy Hub App

The Bluetooth and Wi-fi connected app shows local system data and is used to easily program and configure your Energy Hub.

In engineering mode, you can set the parameters for many features such as the 3 programmable dry contact relays as well as setting low state of charge (SOC) alarms enabling you to customise your Energy Hub experience. 

Want your inverter to start when the engine does?
Or maybe turn off devices when your battery is low?

With The Energy Hub App, this process is quick and simple, meaning you'll be all ready to go in just a couple of taps.

Available on both Google Play and Apple Store

TBB Fleet - Remote Monitoring

Using the 4G data stick you'll be able to access TBB Fleet - A remote monitoring web platform that provides live information from the Hub in service. Giving fleet managers and vehicle converters invaluable data that can be accessed anywhere in the  world.

This creates massive opportunities such as being able respond to a warranty call-out while knowing exactly how to solve the issue before an engineer has even arrived. Meaning less time spent on diagnostics and less time spent with the vehicle off-road.

The integrated web app ( TBB fleet ) provides status on all the live elements of the system - Battery state of charge (SOC), AC and DC usage, and charging sources like shoreline or solar. Complete with an event log that provides history of the system's usage, including any fault conditions that have appeared.

Full telemetry for fleets is also available as a premium subscription, providing you with complete vehicle system data, all accessible in one place.
