Solar energy storage system commercial project study - 20kWh storage battery and 11kW inverter

Date:2025-05-16

As the demand for reliable, clean, and cost-effective energy continues to grow, solar energy systems integrated with advanced battery storage are becoming a practical solution for both home and business users. In this case, we present a real-world application of a high-efficiency solar energy storage system composed of:

  • 2 units of 10.24kWh lithium battery (M88PW)
  • 2 units of 11kW Axpert MAX TWIN inverters
  • A solar array using high-efficiency 555W PERC solar panels

This system is engineered to provide uninterrupted power during grid outages, serve peak load shifting to reduce electricity costs, and supply sustainable energy in remote or electricity-scarce regions.

System Overview

Component Specification
Battery 51.2V, 200Ah, 10.24kWh LiFePO₄ (M88PW), ≥6000 cycles @ 80% DOD
Inverter 11kW per unit (x2), 150A MPPT charger, dual output, wide PV range (90–450VDC)
Solar Panels 555W Mono PERC modules with superior low-light performance and higher efficiency
Total Battery Capacity 20.48kWh
Total Inverter Output 22kW

Solar Array Sizing and Load Calculations

Step 1: Solar Panel Quantity Calculation

To fully charge the 20.48kWh battery system daily with solar, assuming 5 peak sun hours per day:

  • Required PV generation per day = 20.48kWh ÷ 0.85 ≈ 24.1kWh/day
  • Each panel output/day = 555W × 5h = 2.78kWh
  • Number of panels = 24.1 ÷ 2.78 ≈ 9
  • Final Recommendation: Use 10×555W PERC panels

Step 2: Load Power Estimation

Device Power (W) Quantity Total (W)
Air Conditioner 1500 2 3000
Refrigerator 300 1 300
LED Lights 10 20 200
Computer + Monitor 150 4 600
Router + CCTV 50 1 50
Water Pump 1000 1 1000
Washing Machine 800 1 800

Total Load ≈ 6kW, which can be supported comfortably by one inverter.

Installation Guide (Simplified for Non-Experts)

  1. Site Assessment: Choose a sun-exposed roof or ground-mount area. Ensure structural strength and shading analysis.
  2. Mounting Solar Panels: Use aluminum racking systems with 30°–40° tilt. Ensure grounding.
  3. Inverter Installation: Install indoors or shaded area. Connect panels and batteries with surge protection.
  4. Battery Installation: Store in ventilated cabinet. Connect in parallel. Use correct cables and BMS communication.
  5. Load Connection: Connect load circuits and optional grid/generator inputs via ATS.
