The production and storage of energy, particularly electrical energy, is of increasing concern to both building developers and environmentally conscious home owners, but how is it best achieved?
Despite the often windy conditions and comparative lack of sunshine compared to our southern European neighbours, in the majority of locations, solar remains the most practical solution for harvesting electrical energy and with the ongoing technical development that increases the efficiency of every new panel being brought to market, it becomes an increasingly attractive option.
However, to ensure the system is complete, the storage of the energy is equally important as its generation and thankfully, due to its specialist knowledge and diverse product portfolio, Ecobat Battery can offer an incredibly wide range of power storage solutions, to address each application.
At the forefront of power storage technology is EcoFlow, an innovative specialist that has a wide range of products that offer an alternative power storage solution to a traditional battery.
In the domestic new build/renovation environment, the EcoFlow PowerOcean DC Fit is a persuasive option as it sits between the solar panels and an existing inverter. This is made possible by its unique coupling technology and means that it can be seamlessly installed without any extra certification and instantly add a power storage capacity to the home, maximising the efficiency of the user’s existing solar system, which can be called upon for instant power, stored for later use or sale back into the national grid.
The PowerOcean DC Fit is a modular system available with one, two or three advanced 5kWh LFP battery packs, each of which has an 800V high voltage battery to independently start both single-phase or three-phase solar inverters. With trusted LFP battery chemistry from CATL and a comprehensive range of active and passive safety measures, it delivers unrivalled battery reliability and performance
Utilising EcoFlow’s pioneering self-adaptive control algorithm, the PowerOcean DC Fit solution also smartly mitigates the risk of oscillation between the solar coupled battery system and the third party solar inverter, with up to 15kW solar input bypass power per string.
In addition, unlike many other battery solutions on the market, the PowerOcean DC Fit connects its batteries directly to solar ports, and as there is no need to replace the existing solar inverter or change the wiring on the AC side, the entire system is unparalleled in its ease of installation.
As well as being quick to install, it can be located inside or outside and features Smart monitoring via a web portal or an App, has an integrated battery management system, is equipped with an auto heat module to ensure efficient winter operation and has fire suppression built in.
In short, for installation in applications that produce solar energy for domestic consumption and sale to the national grid, the EcoFlow PowerOcean DC Fit is a truly great solution as it enables the effective and efficient storage of excess energy that can be used either for resale or for periods when solar production is not possible.
