Premium 6.5kW grid-tie self-consumption solar power kit with Sharp solar

This Premium 6.5kW 48V Complete Grid-Tie Solar Power System is designed to reduce energy bills with a focus on self-consumption of solar energy. The kit is fitted with the best-selling solar modules from the world-leading solar manufacturer, Sharp, and seamlessly integrates with the national power grid, offering a comprehensive solution for users. It is especially beneficial for those with high electricity consumption, such as when using electric and plug-in vehicles, swimming pools, air conditioners, and heat pumps.

This kit is designed around the principle of power independence, maximising the capability to use all of the available solar power locally, and so significantly reducing electricity bills. The system includes an energy meter that precisely measures the power flow to appliances, enabling it to match the domestic energy consumption with the self-generated solar energy. This approach maximises the self-consumption of solar energy within the house and minimizes energy export to the grid. The kit only starts exporting energy to the grid when the battery bank is full and the household appliances no longer need additional energy. In such situations, all available excess solar power flows into the public grid. The innovative inverter operates efficiently in grid-tie, hybrid, off-grid, and UPS modes, ensuring uninterrupted power supply even during mains power cuts. Advanced monitoring features enable users to keep track of the battery bank through a mobile app connected via Bluetooth, with optional Wi-Fi connectivity (sold separately) and remote portal monitoring capabilities available for added convenience.

The inverter is fully compliant with G98/G99 standards required for grid-tie installation and is easily upgradable. Users can integrate a separate solar array via an additional MPPT solar controller, which can be added to the system at any time, perfect for more complex roof spaces. Although the kit includes an AGM lead-acid battery bank, it is also compatible with Lithium batteries, allowing for greater flexibility in storage options.
