SolarEdge StorEdge
A unique battery storage inverter from SolarEdge
SolarEdge StorEdge – Solar Battery Inverter Storage
The average home uses more electricity in the morning and evening than during the day when solar energy is plentiful. Without a home battery, excess solar panel clean energy is often sold to the power company and purchased back in the evening at a much higher cost. This mismatch adds demand on power plants and increases carbon emissions.
The SolarEdge StorEdge solar solution uses the LG Chem RESU HV battery to bridge this gap between renewable energy supply and demand by making your home’s solar energy available to you when you need it making it an ideal Gympie, Brisbane and Sunshine Coast solar battery solution.
Emergency Power Supply (EPS): SolarEdge’s StorEdge™ solution allows your Sunshine Coast solar panel system to store your home’s solar energy and use it during power failures to power your important backed-up loads, such as, lights, refrigeration, fans, cells phones, and computers. It is not possible to run your entire house on EPS mode.

Monitoring your SolarEdge solar power system is easy and intuitive – this video shows the SolarEdge online monitoring portal and explains its features:

Existing SolarEdge Inverters – Are they compatible with StorEdge?
The good news is that all existing SolarEdge solar power inverters manufactured after 2014 can be converted into a battery storage solution by simply installing the the StorEdge interface.
The StorEdge interface sits between your existing SolarEdge inverter and the LG RESU HV Battery and will provide all the benefits of the new SolarEdge StorEdge inverter except it will not be able to provide backup power in the event of a power failure.
Power failures in suburbia are reasonably uncommon therefore this should not be too much of an issue however if you live in an area that suffers from regular brown or blackouts your should look to upgrade to the SolarEdge StorEdge inverter solution.

Testimonials
Dealing with Mike at Sunworks Solar was fantastic. We had a small off grid system installed on our property on the Sunshine Coast. I contacted quite a few companies regarding having an off grid system installed and to be honest they were all hopeless apart from Sunworks Solar and particularly Mike. You will find that most companies will simply look up your address on Google maps to give you a price based on what sort of system they think you need but Mike came out to the property and had a good look at the house and the surrounding area. Not know much about what type or size of system to install Mike’s input advise and best of all honesty way greatly appreciated. Great company, great service and great people.
