One of the most important pieces of information is missing here: What charging and discharging power do you have in the system? The charging power determines how quickly you can charge the battery when the sun is shining, the discharging power determines how much energy you can draw from the battery at any given moment when needed. Example: You are cooking on induction and have a few other consumers running. You need 7 kW of power at that moment. The battery is full, the photovoltaic system is delivering no or insufficient power (dark, cloudy...). With a typical discharging power of 3.5 kW, you are effectively buying power even though there is enough energy in the battery. I would pay attention to this.

A hybrid inverter with 2 MPPT inputs should be sufficient if you don’t have major shading problems.

I would go for a compact and tidy all-in-one device, I myself use this one here with 8 kWh battery capacity and 8 kW charging-discharging power; with more storage capacity the device becomes about 50 cm taller. I can buy batteries at any time and plug them in like a drawer. Software updates come over the air, so I am prepared for a long service life and future applications. The heating element is still lying around, I should connect it sometime. Preparation for charging station with surplus power control is included, but I (still) drive an internal combustion vehicle. I’m not sure yet whether I want to control household appliances. (Picture needs to be rotated)

Thank you for the quick feedback!



The offer includes 11.25 kWp. We have a total of 160 m² roof area (22-degree hipped roof). Leaving out the north side, 116 m² can be covered with modules. That corresponds to about 60 modules or 22.5 kWp.



Oh yes, the mounting frames also say "30 pieces." Logical...

Yes. Production in China and Romania. But isn't the overwhelming majority coming from China anyway nowadays? In my opinion, that is not quite so dramatic considering the warranties, right?





No idea. I have never heard of the system before. The brochure promises a lot (higher safety, more power, less installation effort). According to your comments, it seems that the price cannot be recouped under normal conditions, right?



That's a good point. I also found nothing about that in the battery data sheet.
Which device do you have? Do you know the manufacturer and model?

According to the datasheet



[TH]Max. output current[/TH]







max. 195 A


At 50 volts, this is just under 10 kW output power.

It says on it :)


That is what it says on the battery. What can the system do?

Which system? The inverter can supposedly do 9 kW...

The inverter can provide 9 kW from the photovoltaic field. It is unclear what it can provide from the battery.
