Chapter 1: Overview
The single phase Energy Hub inverter is SolarEdge's all-in-one solution that uses a
single phase DC optimized inverter to manage and monitor solar power generation,
energy storage, EV charging and smart energy devices. When installed with a battery
and the Backup Interface, homeowners are automatically provided with backup power
in the event of grid interruption to power home loads. In addition, solar energy can be
stored in a battery for Smart Energy Management applications such as export control,
offering demand response and peak shaving, and performing time of use shifting for
reduced electric bills.
StorEdge Solution Components
Energy Hub inverter - manages battery and system energy, in addition to its
traditional functionality as a DC-optimized PV inverter.
The Connection Unit, located at the bottom of the inverter, allows simple
installation and connectivity to other system components and includes a DC Safety
Switch.
The
Energy Meter
is used by the inverter for export, import, and consumption
readings, and for Smart Energy Management applications, such as export
limitation, time-of-use profile programming and maximizing self-consumption.
One or multiple batteries
(optional)
- DC-coupled batteries designed to work with
the SolarEdge system. The batteries can be connected to the system optionally.
When installing a battery, connect the DC cables from the battery and from Power
Optimisers to an external combiner box, compliant with local regulation. Then,
connect the cables from the combiner box to the DC terminals inside the inverter's
Connection Unit.We recommend using the SolarEdge combiner box. For
