Premium 6.5Kw Grid-Tie Self-Consumption Solar Power Kit With Sharp Solar Panels, 5.5Kw Hybrid Inverter And 24Kwh Battery Bank

Description

This Premium 6.5kW 48V Complete Grid-Tie Solar Power System is designed to reduce energy bills with a focus on self-consumption of solar energy. The kit is fitted with the best-selling solar modules from the world-leading solar manufacturer, Sharp, and seamlessly integrates with the national power grid, offering a comprehensive solution for users. It is especially beneficial for those with high electricity consumption, such as when using electric and plug-in vehicles, swimming pools, air conditioners, and heat pumps.

The inverter is fully compliant with G98/G99 standards required for grid-tie installation and is easily upgradable. Users can integrate a separate solar array via an additional MPPT solar controller, which can be added to the system at any time, perfect for more complex roof spaces. Although the kit includes an AGM lead-acid battery bank, it is also compatible with Lithium batteries, allowing for greater flexibility in storage options.

 

 

12 x 540W Sharp NU-JD Monocrystalline Solar Panels with high efficiency PERC cells

High efficiency solar cells use PERC technology with 10 busbars to extract more power from a smaller surface area, increasing the output of the panel without increasing the size. Half-cut cell construction decreases internal losses, reduces risk of hotspots and improves performance in shaded conditions. The robust design of the panel is IP68 (waterproof) rated, and tested for resistance against PID, salt mist, ammonia, heavy snow, dust and sand. This thorough testing ensures a long service life even in harsh marine or wilderness conditions. A pair of male / female MC4 connectors are crimped on the end of the cable for easy waterproof connection to other solar panels, extension leads or your existing system.

5500W 48V Iconica Hybrid Inverter:

Using a Grid-tie operation with battery backup offers significant advantages over standard grid-tie inverters by ensuring uninterrupted power and reducing electricity costs. During power outages, standard grid-tie inverters shut down completely, leaving users without electricity and wasting solar energy. In contrast, this advanced inverter utilises stored battery power to maintain an uninterrupted power supply (UPS), keeping appliances running and continuing to harvest energy from solar panels. As electricity prices rise and subsidies for grid-fed power decrease, maximising self-consumption becomes crucial. The system can prioritise using stored solar energy with ‘peak’ and ‘off-peak’ settings to restrict mains power usage during periods where electricity cost is higher, thereby reducing reliance on the grid and lowering overall electricity costs. This approach ensures that solar energy is effectively utilised, enhancing both energy independence and cost efficiency.

24kWh 48V 500Ah AGM Battery Bank:

The advanced 48V 500Ah battery bank included in this kit is comprised of 24 x 2V high quality AGM batteries, complete with metal plate connectors for instant connection. Using 2V batteries offers important advantages over battery banks made up of 12V batteries, including a longer service life and deeper discharge capability.

Additional items:

This kit also includes 1m positive and negative 50mm² tinned copper battery cables with loose ring terminals for connecting the inverter to the battery bank, an automatic circuit breaker for use between the hybrid inverter and the battery bank, 50m solar extension cable and T4 connectors to connect to the existing 1m of solar cable fitted to the solar panels.
