When the power grid fails, picea takes over the power supply. The house is then supplied from the battery, which in turn is charged by the photovoltaic system and the fuel cell. This means that emergency power can be supplied for months if necessary. Since picea provides 3-phase electrical energy, appliances can continue to operate as usual.

Safety has been our top priority from the very beginning. Our picea product is 100% safe in every situation thanks to various patents on components and processes.

The entire picea system is permanently sealed tight. There is no measurable diffusion of hydrogen. Mathematically speaking, it takes 300 years for 1% of hydrogen to escape. Our hydrogen cylinders are made of steel and have centimetre-thick walls. All pipes are made of stainless steel, and all connections and seals are mechanically sealed tight.

picea generally operates parallel to the grid. Appliances operated in your home can draw power at full capacity at any time. picea provides you with enough power to completely supply all standard household appliances. If you need extraordinarily high power (e.g. for machines), picea delivers a maximum power according to the data sheet. If the required power exceeds this, electricity is drawn from the public grid. If the grid is not available, e.g. due to a power outage, picea can continue to supply your home with up to 7.4 kW of power – and that is 3-phase electricity.
