Jackery, Geneverse present new residential energy storage system
California-based battery provider Jackery and US PV system provider Geneverse unveiled a new residential energy storage system this week at RE+ 2024 in Anaheim, United States.
The product, dubbed the HomePower Energy System, uses lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries and offers a storage capacity of up to 123.2 kWh.
“The system is crafted to provide homeowners with energy independence, featuring advanced capabilities in a user-friendly design,” the companies said in a statement. “It optimizes home energy management while contributing to broader renewable energy goals for a more sustainable future.”
The UL9540 and 9540A certified storage system also includes an inverter with four MPPTs, with a max current of 16 A per string to accommodate larger PV panels. It includes bidirectional capability, allowing the battery to charge from the grid. It is rated for up to 50A/11.4kW continuous backup power and a roundtrip efficiency of 97%.
The system also features an IP65-rated enclosure and 1P66 protection. It also includes what the firm calls Hub and Hub+, which integrates EV chargers, battery energy storage systems (BESS), and backup generators into the storage mechanism.
The new product can provide up to 200 A of generator backup, 280 A bussing, and 200 A of grid pass-through. It also features an integrated fire suppression system and critical load management of up to 20 branch circuits.
