Which system fits your needs?
| Grid-tied without battery | For a lower starting investment; during a grid outage it normally shuts down. |
|---|---|
| Hybrid, battery later | For adding storage in the future; backup does not operate without suitable equipment. |
| Hybrid with battery | For storing energy; outage backup requires specifically configured backup functionality. |
How much do these systems start at?
A 5 kW installed grid-connected package starts at €3,600. A 5 kW package plus a catalog RW-F5.3 unit is approximately €5,414. The hybrid inverter price difference must be confirmed in a quotation.
What happens when the grid fails?
A grid-connected system normally stops; hybrid systems need a correctly installed backup function and compatible equipment to supply backup circuits.
