Stay Powered When It Matters Most: Why the HUPS Is the Best Backup Power Solution for the USVI
In the Virgin Islands, power outages aren’t a matter of “if”—they’re a matter of “when.” The HUPS (Home Uninterruptible Power Supply) is a reliable, locally assembled backup power system designed to keep your home or business running through blackouts, storms, or WAPA grid failures.
Whether you’re preparing for hurricane season or looking to take control of your energy future, the HUPS offers unmatched peace of mind—built for Virgin Islanders, by Virgin Islanders.
What Is the HUPS?
The HUPS is a modular, high-performance backup power system with integrated solar and battery capabilities. It combines premium components with thoughtful design for Caribbean living:
-
Comes in 3K, 6K, and 10K configurations
-
Expandable battery storage (up to 43.2kWh!)
-
Supports up to 20.4kW of solar input
-
Built using industry-leading Victron Energy components
-
Offers full off-grid functionality with HEPA filtered cooling
It’s plug-and-play power security—with professional design and expert local support.
Why Choose HUPS Over Other Inverters?
Unlike many off-island competitors, the HUPS is built specifically for the needs of homes and businesses in the U.S. Virgin Islands. That means:
✅ Simple installation (about 4 hours)
✅ Easily repairable on-island (no need to ship off for service)
✅ Pre-integrated safety systems, breakers, and switches
✅ Mobile cabinet offers flexible placement in your home or business
✅ Manual or automatic generator transfer compatibility
Here’s how the HUPS stacks up against top name-brand competitors like Sol-Ark:
Locally Assembled & 3D Printed for Precision
One of the biggest differentiators of the HUPS is that it’s assembled entirely in the U.S. Virgin Islands by trained local engineers and technicians. Even the system’s outer casing is robotically cut right here in the territory, making repairs and upgrades easier than ever.
This isn’t just about energy independence—it’s about economic empowerment and keeping your investment local.
