Tabuchi Electric America Donates Solar-Plus-Storage Solutions to Help Puerto Rico and the Caribbean Islands Accelerate Power Restoration

SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Tabuchi America, the world’s leading residential hybrid
solar-plus-storage manufacturer, announced today that the company is
donating their Eco Intelligent Battery System (EIBS) to various
organizations in Puerto Rico and other Caribbean Islands impacted by the
hurricanes Irma, Jose and Maria. The plug-and-play system includes a
hybrid bi-directional solar inverter, 10 kWh lithium ion batteries, an
integrated Battery Management System, Automatic Transfer Switch, and a
programmable Remote Control.

“Meeting the challenge and urgency of restoring power is the first step
toward rebuilding. Tabuchi applauds the response from our industry
partners who are contributing to these extensive relief efforts,” said
Harumi McClure, COO and President of Tabuchi America. McClure added that
the company’s Eco Intelligent Battery System (EIBS) was instrumental in
helping homeowners restore power following the Fukushima disaster and
subsequent power outages in 2011. “We are honored to help homeowners to
generate and store solar power so they can keep their lights on, run
their refrigerators, and power other critical appliances – both day and
night.”

Tabuchi is donating the EIBS for both retrofitting damaged solar
systems, and for new solar projects. The company is working with local
solar companies to identify ideal sites to install the donated systems.
Tabuchi is also sending a technical team to assist in installing the
EIBS while providing hands-on training.
