Traditionally used for off-grid power systems
Most common type of battery and advancing rapidly
Used for large energy storage applications
As the transition to renewable energy accelerates, batteries for home energy storage are developing rapidly and gradually becoming mainstream. The tremendous advancement in lithium battery technology has sparked tremendous interest among those seeking to store excess solar energy, increase self-consumption, becoming more energy independent.
Households and businesses are looking for measures to support a reliable electricity supply ways during prolonged power outages.
Tesla Energy’s Powerwall lithium battery system has made a significant impact in the solar industry, pushing home energy storage into the mainstream. Powerwall 2 includes an integrated battery inverter/charger, giving it significantly more power and flexibility.
Powerwall 2 features and specifications
The RESU, or ‘Residential Energy Storage Unit,’ battery range includes both 48 volt and 400 volt lithium-ion battery options. The 48V (LV) series comes in 3.3kWh, 6.5kWh, 9.8kWh, and 13kWh capacities. The higher voltage (HV) 400V batteries come in two sizes: 6.5kWh and 9.8kWh.
All LG Chem RESU batteries are IP55 weather-rated. This means they can be installed in a semi-outdoor locations.
