Together, and alongside OCEAN 2, the accolades and products on display at IFA 2026 reflect EcoFlow's broader vision for a more connected energy ecosystem, spanning portable power and professional applications through to intelligent residential energy management.
STREAM: Flexible energy storage for the modern home
EcoFlow STREAM is part of EcoFlow's residential energy storage ecosystem, designed to give households greater flexibility over how they generate, store and use electricity. The STREAM platform combines battery storage with intelligent energy management, helping homeowners make better use of renewable energy while maintaining greater control over their household power.
STREAM AC 5000 retrofits storage to solar that is already on the roof and is built to absorb the higher feed-in power those systems produce, with installation carried out by a qualified electrical contractor. From October, the series gains Local Mode, which keeps a STREAM system running and app-controllable with no internet connection and nothing to configure.
PowerRock 4000: Professional-grade portable power
Launched at IFA 2026 and receiving two awards, EcoFlow PowerRock 4000 is an industrial portable power station designed for demanding professional applications, including construction, events, film production and emergency response. It delivers 4 kW of continuous power and up to 7.2 kW of peak power for 100 seconds, while built-in RCD protection is designed to support demanding, compliance-critical worksites. The unit also features IP65-rated with 1 m drop resistance, making it suited to challenging working environments.
RIVER Gen4: new technology recognised at IFA 2026
Also launched at IFA 2026 and receiving one award, EcoFlow's RIVER Gen4 is a next-generation portable power station designed to deliver reliable power in a compact, lightweight format. Available in two models, RIVER 260 Gen4 offers 256 Wh capacity and 300 W output, while RIVER 520 Gen4 delivers 512 Wh and 500 W output. Both support X-Boost, fast charging and under-10 ms UPS switching, making them suited to outdoor adventures and emergency backup.
Beyond the awards, EcoFlow also took part in the Smart Living Forum on the IFA Dream Stage in Hall 25. On 7 September, Arne Herkelmann, Senior Product Manager Europe at EcoFlow, joined the panel "Electrification & the Smart Home of the Future" alongside experts from Copper and Philips, discussing how innovation is shaping the electrified home - from smart power management and wireless energy through to connected home energy solutions.
