Sungrow, one of the biggest manufacturers for PV inverters and ESS, recently dropped the big news of its new 3-phase Solution: a combination of the 3-phase Hybrid and the brand-new Residential Battery.
"We launched the 3-phase Hybrid almost 2 years ago, with compatibility with several battery brands. Its integrated backup funtion, easy installation and flexible operation capability has made it a success in the market,” says Andrea Polini, product manager for Hybrids and ESS at Sungrow. Launching the new Residential Battery is the next step of the company to further push the energy revolution. The 3-phase Solution allows the customer to get the whole system, Hybrid inverter plus Battery, delivered from one manufacturer. This offers some clear benefits for the installer but also for the end-customer: one manufacturer means one point of contact for the whole system. This may refer to installation, commissioning, service request or warranty conditions.
“Warranty actually is a very good example. The whole system comes with a unique 10-year product warranty, which clearly differentiates us from other manufacturers within the market who still have different warranty conditions for their inverters and their batteries. We are continuously improving our portfolio to deliver high-end and practical solutions to all our partners. The new 3-phase Solution definitely is one of our biggest achievements for 2021.” comments Jeremy Powell, Director Distribution Europe at Sungrow.
The new Battery is designed in a modular and user-friendly way. Each battery module weighs only 33 kg and it’s assembled just by placing the modules on top of each other, no wiring required. The new installation video guides through all required steps of the installation and shows how fast and easy a battery installation may be.
The minimum capacity starts at 9.6 kWh which corresponds to 3 battery modules and can be scaled up to 25.6 kWh which refers to 8 modules per battery. With a maximum discharge current of 30 A that matches the 3-phase Hybrid, the customer can achieve maximum self-consumption. Furthermore, the combination of Hybrid inverter plus Battery from Sungrow offers an optimized residential backup experience, with a seamless transition of only 20ms when there is a power outage.
Another highlight of the 3-phase Solution is the new communication device, WiNet-S. The WiNet module combines Ethernet and WiFi connection in one port. The device sends fresh data to the free of charge monitoring platform iSolarCloud every 10 seconds. With this capability, the customer can check the energy flow and self-consumption in near real time, being totally in control of his renewable energy production.
Being asked about availabilities, Andrea Polini stated the following: “Our new Residential Battery will be available within all countries where we are selling the 3-phase Hybrid. Currently we are focusing on Germany, Sweden, Italy and Poland. Further countries like Belgium, the Netherlands, and Spain will follow in the future.”
