Magellan Home Energy Storage System

Magellan’s Home Energy Storage System (HESS) converts solar energy into useable power and stores it, allowing users to benefit from solar power at night. This is combined with bidirectional energy management that recharges the battery during off-peak hours. 

Designed and built in Western Australia, for Australian weather conditions, the 1.3 m-high HESS is made for durability and has an in-built cooling system designed to protect the battery from the Australian heat. Other benefits include an uninterrupted power supply (UPS) function that allows selected essential power loads, such as refrigerators, lights, computers and TVs, to remain unaffected in the case of a blackout.

The redesigned HESS can still be monitored via smartphone or tablet and be charged from solar panels or the grid. It contains lithium LG Chem batteries.

The product is available in 6.5 and 13 kWh. Energy trading and IoT ready, it is suitable for installation under eaves or in the garage. Its hybrid design means it is capable of solar and grid charging, and it is compatible with existing solar installations.

It includes a powerful 5 kVA inverter; an expandable modular battery design; intelligent energy management; high-efficiency power conversion; an easy-to-use colour touch screen; and easy Wi-Fi connectivity.
