I designed the first UK installation of the WHES Powerpod S2 on behalf of Volta Eco Systems Ltd, with installation due to be completed this month by Spartek ECS Ltd.
The WHES Powerpod S2 is an all in one hybrid inverter and storage system with a range of inverter power from 3.6kW to 10kW on single phase. Storage comes in stackable 4.99kWh modules, with up to 4 in one stack, and multiple stacks are possible on a single inverter with the addition of extra HV boxes.
This is a versatile, compact, easy to install system.
This first system is a large one for single phase: 2 x 8kW inverters, each with 15kWh of storage, running in parallel, with 22kWp of panels on the roof. The homeowner is installing ASHP and air to air conditioning on a fairly large house, so will be using a comparatively large amount of electricity. This system will not only generate a lot over the summer months, but will allow him to maximise use of off peak electricity in the winter.
I will be attending to assist with commissioning, and look forward to seeing this system in action
