The German Kostal Solar Electric has announced to rise the warranty period for it’s storage system up to 15 years. The system Piko BA Li includes an low voltage inverter, lithium battery packs and battery charging electronics. The expanded warranty conditions offer more value to the customers and to the installers of the system: They minimize the risks and make the investment more secure.
Kostal is the first company that provides warranty longer than ten years. The great advantage of the storage systems is buffering the solar power for the evening or the morning or bridging cloudy hours during the day. Stored solar energy goes easy at the budget because it saves a lot of money. In regions and countries with high energy prices it may be cheaper to buy a solar battery system than to buy energy from the grid.
The Piko BA System Li provides storage for solar power generators between four and eleven kilowatt. It was introduced last year at the Intersolar in Münich and won the EES Award for storage systems. (HS)
