A message for everyone who really wants to use more clean energy but they don’t think they can afford to make it happen.

OPAL is the world’s only ‘Plug n’ Play’ smart battery that allows you to reduce your carbon footprint through intelligent, optimized power storage. Charge up during the cheaper daytime shoulder period and benefit from daytime peaks in solar/wind generation for greener, cheaper electricity.

OPAL is a green energy appliance for your home. Plug it in just like you would plug in your TV or fridge. Want to take it from your bedroom to the study or moving out completely? Unplug it, take it with you, then plug it back in. It’s that easy and best yet, no electricians required!

Get an OPAL for every room, link them together via the cloud and manage them via your smartphone app.


OPAL can power anything up to 600 W: 

OPAL can optionally charge from an attached solar panel, or from the grid when power is clean and cheap. 

Battery dead? No worries. OPAL will automatically switch seamlessly to regular grid power. Everything keeps working.

When the grid goes down, OPAL seamlessly switches to battery backup and back again in an instant. When you lose power to your home, OPAL will keep your critical appliances running.  It even turns on an emergency light automatically, so you don’t have to hunt for candles in the dark!

Back in 2018 BlueVolt partnered with the Honnold Foundation to bring The Savo Solar Initiative to life. As that project nears completion, we intend to continue our association with The Honnold Foundation by donating $5 from EVERY OPAL SOLD during the launch campaign. 

Our Vision for ‘Solar Power Everywhere’ aligns well with their Mission to ‘Partner With Marginalised Communities to Expand Equitable Solar Energy Access’. Together we can bring equitable clean energy to those without current access.

Shipping and Fulfillment. Due to the current volatility of shipping costs, shipping payments will be collected well after the end of the campaign, close to our ship date. This will allow us to present the most accurate and up-to-date prices to pass savings on to you, our valued backers. 

Ezekiel F. “Used the OPAL for a month and loved it, looked good next to my TV and I never ran the OPAL dry once.”

Phil K. “I got to test it in a real blackout, I didn’t even realise the power went out”

Ann-Maree J. “It was so good, it sat in my living room and we had our 60W solar blanket hooked up all day. Free power for my router and TV!’
