Like in any other industry, the speed and efficiency of
completing jobs to a high-quality standard determines the potential cost and
ultimate profitability of a project. The factors involved in installing and
commissioning solar energy systems can, at times, hamper the installer, including,
but not limited to, the number of components in a system, the inflexibility of
the products and the complexity of some jobs.
Unfortunately, it is hard to eliminate all those elements,
but there is a paradigm shift happening in the solar industry that we believe
will help improve profitability, drive down end user cost and eradicate a
considerable amount of complexity. The saviour being the innovation, design and
technology being driven into the market by integrated energy systems.
As home energy has evolved, so has its technology. We still see the majority of installs for a
hybrid inverter system with separate inverter and batteries. However, the
advent of stackable floor-mounted energy systems is revolutionising this
landscape. By integrating inverters, BMS and batteries into compact, stackable
units, installers can significantly reduce installation time and streamline the
entire process.
One of the primary advantages of integrated systems is the
elimination of complex wiring configurations. In traditional setups, installers
have to meticulously wire inverters and batteries separately, often requiring
intricate manuals and precise execution, as well as wall mounting time (which
we all know can be a time drain).
Conversely, integrated systems are increasingly coming in a
plug-and-play set up, reducing the installation time by eliminating the need
for extensive wiring work. This simplified design not only saves time but also
minimises the risk of wiring errors, enhancing the overall reliability of the
system. With standardised, or ready-to-go connectors and interfaces, installers
can simply plug the components together, significantly reducing setup time.
One of the other key advantages, particularly from a design
and aesthetic point of view is that Installers can efficiently stack multiple
units in a compact footprint, maximising energy output without sacrificing
installation speed. A key advantage to the end user and an outcome that may
justify a propensity to invest more in a battery system.
An aspect that installers need to also take into
consideration is the number of components needed in a traditional system in
comparison to the integrated approach found in the newer energy stacks.
Two great examples of these integrated energy systems are
SOFARs PowerAll and the SigenStor from Sigenergy. Both have integrated Battery,
BMS and Inverters sitting on the same stack. Sigenergy have also created
further flexibility to mix 5kw and 8kw batteries from its range, with zero
effort required from the installer, again underlining its ease of use and speed
of installation.
Additionally, the streamlined installation process lowers labour
costs, enabling installers to complete more jobs within a given timeframe.
The ability to complete more installations per week is a
significant advantage for solar installers, especially in a competitive market.
Integrated systems empower installers to take on more projects without
compromising on quality or efficiency. By minimizing installation time and
maximising throughput, installers can expand their client base and drive
business growth.
Beyond the immediate benefits of time and cost savings,
integrated systems also enhance the overall reliability and performance of
solar installations. With components engineered to work seamlessly together,
integrated systems offer improved system efficiency and durability. This
reliability not only reduces maintenance requirements but also enhances the
long-term viability of solar energy as a sustainable solution.
Stackable floor-mounted energy systems represent a positive
opportunity in the solar industry. By streamlining installation processes,
these integrated systems offer significant time and cost advantages for both
installers and consumers. As the demand for solar energy continues to rise, the
adoption of integrated systems is poised to accelerate, driving greater
efficiency and accessibility in renewable energy installations.
