How the sonnenBatterie gets you through the day.

Clean energy during the day time, in the evening and at night.

sonnenbatteries intelligent system ensures you get the most out of the power you have produced from your solar. 

Morning: minimal energy production, high energy needs.

At sunrise the solar panels start to produce energy, though not enough to cover the morning energy needs. The sonnenBatterie will bridge the gap with the stored energy from the previous day.

Midday: highest energy production, low energy needs.

In the daytime the energy generated from the solar panels is at its peak. But since nobody is home the energy consumption is very low so that most of the generated energy is stored in the sonnenBatterie.

Evening: low energy production, high energy needs.

The highest daily energy consumption is in the evening when the solar panels produce little or no energy. The sonnenBatterie will cover the energy need with the energy produced in the daytime.

Never worry about the lights going out.

Never worry about the lights going out.

Electricity blackouts are now becoming more common in Australia. Outages are always unpredictable and often cause problems. sonnenProtect can reliably supply your essential loads with the stored solar energy during these grid failures*. 

Charge your battery even when the grid is down.

Solar power generation does not have to go to waste. When the grid goes down – with Black Start function, you can rest assured knowing that during the blackout, the sonnenBatterie can utilise energy from the connected solar system, to supply your essential loads and recharge the battery. Meaning you can use your essential appliances without interruption during times of extended blackouts**.

What protection can I expect?

A sonnenBatterie system, combined with sonnenProtect can power your home’s essential loads* such as refrigerator, lights and internet modem during grid outages and may even support your home if the grid goes down for several days**.

* Essential circuit wiring requires consultation with your solar installer and is unique to each home.
** Conditions apply. Please consult with your solar installer for more details.
