Lion Sanctuary™
Residential Smart Energy Storage System
Home battery backup for those unexpected energy emergencies.
Prepare for the next power outage with the safest, quietest backup power generator.
The Lion Energy Sanctuary system stores 13.5kWh of backup power to automatically keep your house running during those unexpected power outages.
Avoid noisy, fuel-powered generators that require upkeep and maintenance. The Sanctuary uses lithium iron posphate battery cells to give you immediate power that is safe, silent, and renewable. No maintenance is required.
Client Case Studies
WATCH VIDEOS“The Lion Sanctuary is a perfect solution to integrate a smart energy storage system with our current centralized electrical grid.”
—Tyler Hortin, President of Lion Energy
Weather the Storm
Losing power isn't fun. The average power loss duration in the US is 8 hours and increasing. You don't have to go without power during emergencies. Our essential Lion Sanctuary energy storage solution is a perfect option for 95% of the power outages, keeping your essentials (e.g. fridge, lights, outlets, furnace, and WI-FI) running for the duration. The Sanctuary uses advanced technology as part of our LionESS (Energy Storage System).
For residents that live in higher risk areas for hurricane or flood zones, the average power outage duration is roughly 25 hours. We've got you covered with expandable options of the Lion Sanctuary.
Top-quality technology
Smart Energy Storage is built using our proprietary technology of:
- Lithium iron phosphate battery storage
- Cutting-edge inverters
- US-based engineering that interweaves monitoring software
- Easy-to-use app technology
- Ready to use anytime and anywhere
Compared to old tech that required:
- Fossil fuels in form of gas or natural propane
- Dangerous health-hazardous from fumes and fire issues
- Maintenance to ensure your system is ready to use
- Scarce availability of resources in an emergency
- Negative environmental impact
Better capabilities. Better solution.
The Lion Energy Sanctuary is the only lithium-based backup system that comes with installation included (reducing unexpected costs on the back end of the purchase) and comes standard with an inverter while others may only provide the battery. The Sanctuary has better energy capacity, max peak load, and max continuous load than the competition. In all, the Sanctuary gives you the most complete package for your emergency backup at a comparable price.
