PROJECT DETAIL
Objective:
The customer wanted a battery storage system to use more of his solar, and buy less power from the grid. He liked the idea of having some backup ability as well, but this wasn’t a necessity.
Site Considerations:
System needed to retrofit to his existing SMA solar array, and be installed outside along a protected service wall.
System Design:
- SMA Sunny Boy Storage 2.5
- 7kWh Tesla Powerwall
- SMA Sunny Portal monitoring
- Existing 7kW solar array
