Instagrid launches new product in North America and the UK

We are delighted to announce that we have launched the portable power supply Instagrid GO.

Instagrid GO is based on our groundbreaking portable power supply Instagrid ONE and has been specially designed to meet the unique energy regulations of the North American market and the UK construction industry.

Instagrid GO provides working professionals access to peak power in the most challenging work environments. Like Instagrid ONE, Instagrid GO provides a rated power output of 3.6 kW, a peak power output of 18 kW, and a capacity of 2.1 kWh. Instagrid GO comes in two models:

  • Instagrid GO 36 DV has been developed with dual 120 V outputs and the option to switch to 240 V. It is tailor-made to serve North American industries such as construction and film production.

  • Instagrid GO 36 LV is equipped with dual 110 V outputs and is tailor-made for the UK construction industry.

Instagrid GO provides mobile power to workers facing challenging power demands, while simultaneously transforming workplace safety and driving the industry net-zero push.

Global off-grid work is currently dominated by inefficient and costly fuel-powered combustion generators that produce harmful emissions and pose health risks to users. In the United States, new safety standards for portable generators have been proposed, with the State of California already confirming a ban on the sale of portable gas-powered generators, coming into effect in 2028.

The UK construction industry has likewise launched a plan to eliminate 78% of diesel machinery from UK construction sites by 2035. In order to reach this goal, construction executives and business owners need to adopt innovative clean technologies.

Building on our groundbreaking technology

Born out of Germany’s world-renowned epicenter for innovation and engineering excellence, Instagrid has developed a sustainable alternative power supply that integrates a unique award-winning architecture of stacked micro-inverters to deliver precise grid-like performance, at a fraction of the size, weight, and environmental cost of conventional generators. In fact, by avoiding expenditure on fuel and maintenance, Instagrid customers save nearly 80% on lifetime costs, all while generating zero exhaust fumes.

Instagrid’s principal and flagship product Instagrid ONE has so far helped nearly 50,000 users across Europe to reduce costs thanks to savings on fuel and maintenance, and to create a more efficient and healthier work environment. In many cases, Instagrid ONE has transformed how users work entirely. For example, providing metal workers ultra-high peak power for welding on-the-go, or helping film crews to streamline their operations by avoiding cumbersome cables and noisy power generators on set.

Following the monumental success of Instagrid ONE across several verticals in Europe, Instagrid has now developed a new power unit that directly responds to the unique energy regulations of North American industries including construction and film production, while encompassing the peak power and portability components of Instagrid ONE. Instagrid GO will transform the way workers operate, granting them a higher level of flexibility and freedom to perform power-demanding tasks, while elevating their level of safety through reduced cabling and local emissions. Furthermore, by drastically reducing air and noise pollution on-site, workers can feel assured that their safety is of paramount importance.

Instagrid GO: portable energy reinvented

Both Instagrid GO models are an IoT-enabled mobile energy source for construction and film production, providing clean power for anyone, anywhere, anytime:

  • Uncompromising power – Instagrid GO delivers grid-like performance with a rated power output of 3.6 kW and peak power output of 18.0 kW, meaning users can power even the most demanding tools with ease.

  • Efficient by design – Unlike the heavy traditional combustion generators, weighing just 21 kg / 46 lb, Instagrid GO is easily transported in just one hand, allowing the user to carry the power with them wherever they go. Its fanless design means it can be used in all weather conditions, and it's protected from dust and particles.

  • Increased safety – Instagrid GO reduces hundreds of feet of cumbersome cabling that all too often trail directly through the site, in turn reducing trip hazards and speeding up set-up and tear-down times. Instagrid GO emits zero noise or fumes, improving worker safety and protecting the local environment.

  • Proven credentials Born out of the European success of its sister unit Instagrid ONE, Instagrid GO represents an industry-proven high-performance clean energy alternative now designed specifically for the North American construction and film production industries.

Instagrid GO is the third product from Instagrid, and is compatible with the Instagrid LINK - the smart power distributor that lets users connect multiple power sources together, allowing seamless switching between them and increasing overall capacity. With charge times of under 3 hours, and enabling a sustained and efficient energy supply, Instagrid GO powers a range of applications. For example:

  • 3,000 W table saw – powers 4,100 cuts through 2x4 in lumber

  • 2,200 W breaker – capable of demolishing 8 tons of 6 in concrete slabs

  • 3,300 W diamond core drill – 32 cuts through 6 in of concrete with 6 in core drill bit

  • 180 Wh film camera V-Lock battery – recharge 11 times

  • 420 W LED soft light – 5 hours at full brightness

Sebastian Berning, Co-CEO and Co-Founder:

"Instagrid GO embodies the same innovative spirit as our European flagship product, Instagrid ONE, which has revolutionized the portable power market since its inception. Rooted in rigorous German engineering and fueled by feedback from top-tier professional customers, we crafted Instagrid GO to fulfil the exacting demands of the North American market. Instagrid GO is a game-changer for professionals across various industries pursuing clean, high-performance mobile power."

Andreas Sedlmayr, Co-CEO and Co-Founder:

“The launch of Instagrid GO marks a groundbreaking step in our commitment to delivering high-performance power while achieving ambitious sustainability targets. In our mission to decarbonize off-grid power, we are now entering the North American market, which remains heavily reliant on combustion technology. With nearly 50,000 users across Europe already experiencing the benefits of clean, high-performance mobile power, Instagrid GO is set to empower professionals throughout North America. This innovative solution will not only drive their commercial success but also support the transition towards net-zero goals.”
