1.5.2 Backup Solar plus Storage 

 
During  a  grid  outage,  the  Evolve  Hub  islands  the  battery  system  and 
backup  electrical  panel  off  the  grid.    In  this  mode,  the  EMC  is  in  a 
monitoring state, with most control handed over to the Evolve ESS.  The 
Evolve  ESS  curtails  PV  when  the  battery  is  either  full  or  exceeds  the 
charge limit of the battery.  On low SOC, the battery system goes into a 
standby state until either the solar resource or the grid returns. 
 

IMPORTANT!

  Shutting  off  the  Evolve  Hub  circuit  breaker  at  the  main 

electrical  panel  will  place  the  ESS  into  backup  mode  and  continue  to 
energize the backup panel. 
 

1.5.3 Backup Solar PV curtailment method: Frequency Shift Power Control (FSPC)  

 
During backup power operation of the Evolve ESS, PV curtailment is achieved by shifting the frequency up or down to trip 
the PV inverter.  This curtailment method, defined as frequency shift power control (FSPC), is required to prevent solar from 
over-charging  the  battery.  By  default,  the  Evolve  ESS  will  ramp  up  frequency  to  a  PV  trip  range  of  62.1  Hz,  but  this  is 
adjustable depending on the regulatory frequency trip limits within the jurisdiction. 
 

IMPORTANT!

    PV  inverters  connected  to  the  backup  panel  must  have  frequency  trip  settings  programmed  within  the 

following ranges: PV low frequency trip range:  57.0 to 59.3 Hz, PV high frequency trip range: 60.5 to 62.0 Hz. 
If the PV inverter cannot be adjusted within the range specified, the PV inverter must not be connected to the backup panel. 
 

Note:

  The Evolve Hub is not suitable for use in applications where the electric utility prohibits PV power export to the grid.  

For non-export applications, consult your Eguana dealer for alternate EMS panel solutions. 
 

1.5.4 Circuit and system sizing for 100 / 125 / 150 Amp electrical panels 

 
Line side tapping the main electrical panel is required for ESS installations where the electrical service rating is under 200 
Amp. Refer to section 2.3, figure 11. 

1.5.5 Circuit and system sizing for 200+ Amp electrical panels 

 
The Evolve Hub may be connected to a 200+ Amp electrical panel using a single 40A breaker.  For this configuration, the 
total solar PV output connected to the backup electrical panel will depend on the curtailment features of the solar PV inverter.  
If the PV inverter is equipped with its own curtailment controls that can limit PV output to 5kW or less in backup mode, the 
maximum rating of the PV inverter connected to the Evolve hub is 7.6 kW AC.  For PV inverters without internal curtailment 
methods, the 5 kW PV restriction applies.   Regardless of PV size, this configuration permits the Evolve Hub’s EMS to limit 
continuous combined solar plus storage output to 7.6 kW AC (32 Amp).    

1.5.6 Over-sized PV systems 

 
For installations with PV systems that are larger 
than  the  Evolve  Hub  and  Evolve  ESS  can 
accommodate, the PV inverters must be split up 
such that the balance of PV is wired directly to the 
main electrical panel.   
 
An additional CT must be added to the main 
panel connected PV inverter.
