SolarEdge Home Battery 4.6kWh Module (BAT-05K48): Scalable Low Voltage Storage for 3-Phase Systems
Create a tailored energy storage solution with the SolarEdge Home Battery 4.6kWh low-voltage (48V) module (model BAT-05K48 / SE-BATTERY-4.6KWH-02). This module is the building block for battery energy storage designed to work seamlessly with SolarEdge Home Hub and Wave three-phase inverters. Store excess energy from your solar panels to reduce your electricity bills, gain independence from peak energy tariffs, and enhance your home's energy resilience, especially when configured for backup power (subject to local regulations and potentially requiring additional components).
Efficient DC-Coupled Low Voltage Storage
This Li-Ion battery module offers 4.6kWh of usable energy. Being DC-coupled directly to the compatible SolarEdge inverter ensures high overall system efficiency, with the product specifications mentioning over 94.5% peak roundtrip efficiency. This means less energy is wasted during charging and discharging cycles, maximising the value of your stored solar power.
Build Your Ideal Capacity - Scalable by Design
Start with one module and expand as needed. The SolarEdge low-voltage system allows you to stack up to five 4.6kWh battery modules per compatible inverter, enabling a total capacity of up to 23kWh. This modularity provides fantastic flexibility to match your specific energy needs now and in the future. Communication between modules is via RS485, with a CAN bus connection to the inverter.
Robust, Safe, and Easy to Manage
Featuring an IP65 rated enclosure, this battery module is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation, offering protection against dust and water. SolarEdge incorporates enhanced safety features for battery protection and offers a 10-year warranty for peace of mind. The entire SolarEdge Home ecosystem, including solar, storage, and other smart devices, can be monitored via a single app, simplifying energy management. Installation is designed to be plug-and-play with automatic SetApp configuration.
