We recently installed this Solar & Battery system for our customer in Mount Helena. The 13.2kW of Canadian Solar panels are split over three orientations to provide a good spread of solar power generation throughout the day. Connected to a 10kW Sungrow hybrid inverter, excess solar energy is stored in the 9.6kWh Sungrow SBR battery, ready to use at night or during a blackout.
This 13.2kW solar system can produce an average of 52 units per day; enough to power the customers home during the day and fully charge his battery, even on a cloudy day.
Should he need more energy storage capacity, the Sungrow SBR battery can be expanded up to 25.6kWh by stacking additional 3.2kWh battery modules.
