Hybrid inverter
Unlike conventional inverters, hybrid inverters offer the option of not only feeding the generated solar power into the power grid, but also storing it in batteries. This allows the stored solar power to be used even when the sun is not shining. Another function of hybrid inverters is to optimize a household's electricity consumption by giving priority to using the solar power generated directly in the household before feeding it into the grid. This leads to a reduction in energy costs and less dependence on expensive grid electricity.
Emergency power supply
GROWATT SPE hybrid inverters offer an effective solution for emergency power supply with high performance values and flexible application options. With a nominal AC output power of 8000 W, the inverter is capable of reliably supplying even high-performance devices during a power failure.
Growatt monitoring platform
You can use the Growatt monitoring platform with the Shine Stick provided. This platform is available as a smartphone app for iOS and Android as well as in a web version. Use of the platform is free of charge. Shine allows you to configure and monitor all your Growatt products, and also enables you to view your own consumption and track trends.
Operating modes:
- Standby mode: The inverter is switched off but can charge the battery without outputting AC power.
- Power saving mode: The output is switched off if the connected load is too low or not detected in order to save energy.
- Fault mode: The inverter switches to protection mode in the event of internal faults or external disturbances such as overtemperature or short circuit.
- Grid operation: The device supplies power from the public grid and can charge the battery at the same time.
- Feed-in mode: Solar power or stored energy is fed into the grid to maximize efficiency and potential remuneration.
- Battery operation: The device supplies the loads with power from the battery and the PV system, even when there is little sunlight.
Intelligent load management
The inverter's integrated smart load control enables precise and efficient control of energy consumption. The use of a potential-free contact allows electrical consumers to be controlled intelligently and prioritized. This function enables automatic detection of energy requirements and optimal use of available energy. Smart load management ensures optimal distribution of energy and thus contributes to efficient use. With intelligent load control via the dry contact, the inverter is able to optimize the energy flow and ensure efficient operation of your solar system.
