Battery-powered portable power solutions offer a compact, silent and eco-friendly alternative to traditional generators – which generally run on fossil fuels. Of this new wave of electric power stations, EcoFlow is leading the way with its sustainable solutions. Known for disrupting its relatively young sector with its leaning towards solar power, the brand has already found international success in markets such as Asia and America, the business is now set on replicating this success in the UK and Europe, with the introduction of the following new products.
RIVER: The perfect entry-level product for those looking to boost their power whilst away from home
and enjoying the great outdoors, the River Portable Power Station offers a compact, yet powerful (constant 600W / surge 1200W) power station. Charge time is proven to be five times faster than others on the market – it only needs to be plugged into a regular house socket for one and a half hours for full charge. RRP: £379.
RIVER Max: The River Max offers all of the benefits of its predecessor, but with the added benefit of an additional battery, doubling the capacity but retaining the model’s portability. RRP: £599.
RIVER Pro: The River Pro is designed for users seeking a power solution that offers a longer runtime than the two previous River options. With its 720Wh Lithium-Ion battery pack and built-in EcoFlow BMS, the River Pro
LATEST ROBOTIC TECHNOLOGIES SAVE CARBON EMISSIONS AND MONEY
The next generation of under floor insulation robots from Q-Bot are providing homeowners and landlords with significant cost savings, as well as driving down the carbon emissions from homes across the UK. Q-Bot provides a fully accredited solution for under floor insulation with suspended floors, making homes warmer while increasing energy efficiency without the hassle of alternative methods. Its unique solution has benefitted an estimated 6,000 people in the social and private housing market, resulting in significant reduction of cold draughts, heat loss through the floor and uneven temperatures. Retrofitting existing buildings is essential to reaching
net zero in the built environment. Residential homes are responsible for around 25 per cent of the UK’s CO2 emissions. Space heating is the largest single energy use in the UK, and accounts for over half of domestic CO2 emissions. According to Q-Bot’s case study of 100 homes where it installed under floor insulation, each

household cut its annual CO2 emissions by 700kg on average. This is the equivalent greenhouse gas
(GHG) emission saving as driving over 1,700 miles in a car – like driving from London to Munich and back again. Q-Bot’s fleet of robots has already completed more than 2,000 installations in the UK since 2012, using robotic technologies for sustainable building retrofit, maintenance and construction. Its work has harvested CO2 savings equivalent to planting two million trees. Q-Bot is committed to continually innovating its fleet
of robots. Recent improvements include the addition of sealed robots with wheels that can drive underwater, and a new design of the spray platform to control insulation thickness. • For more information
