[RE-wrenches] SolarEdge 7600 and the Powerwall

[Marco Mangelsdorf]

Yes, this install was on Oahu in HECO territory.

 

HECO, HELCO and MECO have an interconnect agreement known as Customer Self-Supply (CSS) where the customer-generator is not supposed to export more than an “inadvertent” amount of surplus power to the grid.  For these CSS systems, battery storage is needed.

 

Note that there’s been a whopping one CSS system installed to-date by Sunrun.

Marco,

 

Thank you, your timing is perfect.  I am working with a utility to get approval of a StorEdge  / Solar Edge combination with Tesla batteries and potentially export limitation.

The utility has been asking for examples, and this is the first I can bring them back.  HECO territory?  Sorry the system isn’t yours, but thanks for helping  pave the way for others!

 

Any other examples of StorEdge with batteries or SolarEdge or StorEdge using export limitation would be most helpful, meeting with them on Friday,

 

Best regards,

Lloyd

Yes, Howie…their SE StorEdge.  

 

Not my install.  Sunrun did it on Oahu.  Did a big press whoopdeedo and even got the governor of Hawaii and mayor of Honolulu to attend.

Hi Marco,
I assume that is the StorEdge 7600? Is this your install? What was your access to the StorEdge?

Thanks for the photo,
