Anker

Anker, founded in 2011 in Shenzhen, China, built its reputation as a leading consumer electronics brand specialising in portable chargers, power banks, and accessories. The company has expanded into home energy storage through its Anker SOLIX sub-brand, bringing consumer-focused design and user experience to the residential battery market.

Anker SOLIX offers both portable power stations and home battery systems, with CEC-approved products entering the Australian market from 2023. The company's strength lies in industrial design, app integration, and consumer accessibility — making battery systems approachable for homeowners who are not technically minded.

While Anker's consumer electronics track record is strong, its home battery storage division is relatively new compared to dedicated energy storage companies like BYD or Alpha ESS. The company does not maintain a dedicated Australian energy division, with support handled through Anker's consumer electronics infrastructure. Anker SOLIX appeals to technology-forward buyers who value app experience and industrial design, though buyers should verify local warranty support and installer familiarity with the product before purchasing.
