Sungrow Battery Starter Pack

Sungrow Battery Starter Pack

Get a Sungrow battery installed from $8,690 (incl. GST)

If you already have a solar system but would like to utilise more of your own solar generation, Huglo Solar has put together a cost effective, flexible battery solution. The Sungrow hybrid inverter and battery combo can be AC coupled to your existing solar system. This means you can store your excess solar generation to use at night – we call it the Peak Tariff Buster Battery.

What you get:

  • 5kW Sungrow Hybrid Inverter (SG5.0RS)
  • 6.4kWh Sungrow SBR Battery (SBR064) – expandable in 3.2kWh modules
  • Full home consumption monitoring (DTSU666-20)
  • Access to iSolarCloud App
  • Grid Approval and electrical safety compliance certificate
  • Pre-install Site Visit to confirm battery location and discuss your battery needs
  • Fully installed by our in-house Solar Accreditation Australia (SAA) battery technicians

Why the Sungrow SBR battery?

  • Flexible: The battery AC couples your existing solar system, and the hybrid inverter has spare DC ports to add more solar panels (at additional cost) or connect your existing solar panels, if your existing inverter fails in the future (if compatible)
  • Expandable: Up to 6 modules or 19.2kWh per stack and up to four stacks possible per installation.
  • Value: Great entry level price for a lithium-ion phosphate battery technology
  • Warranty: 10-year manufacturer’s warranty and 10-year workmanship warranty
