We recently installed a Solar and Battery system in Alexander Heights for our customer, John. The 8.6kW of QCells panels are connected to a 5kW Huawei Hybrid inverter* and 10kWh Huawei LUNA battery*
*Huawei inverters & batteries are now sold under the Australian ‘iStore’ brand. Read our in-depth iStore review here.
Huawei Power Optimisers were also installed to allow the solar panels to be split North, East & West, while also minimising losses from partial shade cast by a nearby palm tree.
This solar installation in Alexander Heights will produce an average of 34 units per day and provide the home with solar power during the day, and battery power at night. Should John need to expand his battery, an extra 5kWh iStore Battery module can be added to the existing stack, or even a 2nd iStore Battery stack for up to 30kWh total.
