Most residential solar installations produce solar power during the day when it is not used and then feed it into the utility grid - only to buy it back later on at a higher price.
DC Solar Storage (DSS) from Magellan Power is available in 3 kW/2.4 kWh or 5 kWh. It is installed on the output of the solar panels and therefore does not interfere with the installed inverter.
The DSS uses a bidirectional DC to DC converter to charge batteries from solar panels when the energy is plentiful and allows that energy to be utilised at peak demand times by the owner or sold to the electricity grid.
Employing a lithium-ion phosphate battery, the DSS offers 2000 charge/discharge cycles at 100% DoD at 25°C and an efficiency of 94%. It operates in temperatures between 0 and 55°C.
It offers 3 kW of continuous power and has a DC input of 200-450 VDC and DC output of 200-450 VDC. It communicates via Modbus/RS232.
