3 Phase & Parallel Stacking Information

Transcript:

3 Phase: Vast majority of our business is for single phase, residential use. We do have a 208 Volt, 3 phase unit for small commercial jobs.

Parallel Stacking: We do not support parallel inverters at this time. We expect to add that capability very, very soon.

Indoor Installation

Transcript:

Our product is designed to be installed in a controlled environment such as a garage. The battery itself must be put in a garage or utility closet. The inverter can be mounted outside. We will have an outdoor rated battery encloser later this summer.

DC Coupled

Transcript:

Our product is a DC coupled solution which is far more efficient than AC coupled solutions. There’s only one conversion involved in a DC coupled solution as opposed to three conversions on an AC coupled solution. You can input a maximum of 15 kW DC into a Generac 7.6kW inverter.

Generator Compatibility

Transcript:

We just announced a limited generator compatibility earlier today. It’s so new I haven’t read the press release yet. We will have a whole home backup including a generator compatibility sometime next year.

Usable kW Supported

Transcript:

The system can output a maximum of 7.6 kW out to the grid, but it can store much more than that–produce much more than that to store the excess power in the batteries.
