We recently installed a Solar and Battery system in South Guildford for our customers, Clyde & Margaret. The 13kW of QCells panels are connected to a 10kW Fronius Symo GEN24+ Hybrid inverter; chosen for its proven reliability.
Excess solar power is stored in the 13.8kWh BYD battery for later use at night. The BYD battery has a modular design which can be expanded up to 22kWh if needed.
This solar installation in South Guildford can produce an average of 58 units per day and provide the home with solar power during the day, and battery power at night. In the event of a blackout, the system will switch to Backup Mode to provide emergency backup power to essential circuits such as fridge, lights, TV and internet.
