This 6kW hybrid solar power kit brings together a hybrid inverter, Pylontech lithium-ion battery storage and JA Solar panels in one plug-and-play package for homes wanting to cut electricity costs and rely less on the grid. It is built around domestic photovoltaic self-consumption, storing surplus solar energy for use later in the day.

Key features

• Hybrid inverter, 6kW new generation unit included
• Battery storage, 2x US5000 Pylontech lithium-ion batteries, 5.12kWh each, 10kWh total
• Solar panels, 8x JA Solar 450W panels, 3.6kW total PV power
• Weatherproofing, IP65 rated, batteries and inverter can be installed outdoors
• Monitoring, free internet app to track panel performance and appliance consumption
• Expandable, more batteries or panels can be added later

How it works

Your home draws on solar power first, with any excess stored in the batteries. When demand exceeds what solar and batteries can supply, the grid tops up the difference automatically. The inverter's AC charger and integrated timer also allow overnight charging from off-peak electricity, so stored energy is available during higher tariff periods. The system supports off-grid operation and can act as backup power for essential loads during an outage.

Applications

Suited to homes reducing grid dependence, self-consumption focused installations, and properties wanting battery storage and backup power from day one.
