International Battery will provide an 8.2kWh lithium iron phosphate battery pack for use in the residential SIS system.
Sunverge’s SIS will offer a turnkey solar solution to support a net-zero home energy demonstration at the Philadelphia Navy Yard’s Clean Energy Innovation Hub, which will include a live demonstration of a microgrid with a 2700sq ft net-zero energy home.
The distributed energy system includes an inverter, gateway interoperability and storage technology, making it a unique and comprehensive solution.
US-based Sunverge said power grid operator PJM sees the significant benefits of energy storage to the electrical infrastructure.
The company also said this energy storage project will demonstrate the next-generation zero-energy home and the importance of managing, distributing and storing energy within the smart grid.
