Beautiful Design

Huawei’s new product, the iSitePower-M, aims to help South Africans become more independent and less affected by load-shedding. It’s designed to compete with Tesla Powerwall and other major players in this space.

The iSitePower-M’s beautiful design means that it can be installed inside a home or office is a great advantage. It’s great to see companies focusing on design aesthetics and making products people are proud to have in their homes.

 

Safety Features

It is a great feature that the iSitePower-M is designed with safety in mind. With no exposed wires or parts, it minimizes the risk of accidents or damage to the unit. This is particularly important for families with children or pets, where safety is a top priority.

Furthermore, the fact that the unit is quiet is a bonus, as it means it won’t cause any disturbance or inconvenience to the users. This is great news for residential and office settings, where noise levels need to be kept to a minimum.

 

 

 

Modular Design

The modular design of the Huawei iSitePower Pack, consisting of the inverter and lithium-ion battery, is a great feature. The fact that these parts are stackable and can be easily installed using either a wall mount kit or a secure floor base provides flexibility and convenience to users.

The compact size of the 5 kW inverter, being less than 80 cm high and 70 cm wide, is also impressive. This means that the unit can be easily installed in small spaces, making it suitable for a variety of applications.

Furthermore, the 4.8 kWh Lithium-ion battery provides a good amount of energy storage, which is important for households and offices looking to reduce their dependence on the grid.

 

iSitePower-M Primary markets

The primary market for the iSitePower-M is homeowners that live in private estates where solar panels are not allowed on the roof, or flat owners where it is not possible to install solar panels. Being a Hybrid or Off-Grid solar solution provides an alternative to traditional solar energy solutions and allows customers to be more independent and resilient during power outages, such as load shedding.

It can also be used in an Off-Grid Scenario and can be charged using various solutions, solar panels, or a diesel or petrol generator

Additionally, the ability of the iSitePower-M to charge up while power is available from the grid and seamlessly kick into action during load shedding is a major advantage. This means that users can continue to use their appliances and devices without interruption, providing greater convenience and productivity.

The iSitePower-M is also an ideal solution for small and medium-sized offices and businesses, where energy reliability is critical for uninterrupted operations. By providing a reliable source of power during outages, businesses can avoid costly downtime and maintain productivity.

 

 

Not suitable for Workshops

It’s important for customers to be aware of any limitations or specific requirements of a product before making a purchase decision.

The Huawei iSitePower solution will not be suitable for workshops or other settings where 3-phase electricity is required. It’s important for customers to carefully consider their power needs and requirements before selecting an energy storage solution.

However, the iSitePower-M solution still offers many benefits for residential and small to medium-sized commercial settings where single-phase electricity is sufficient. Providing reliable and independent power during outages can help customers reduce their dependence on the grid and improve energy efficiency.

 

Want to add Solar Panels?

Solar panels can be added to the iSitePower-M, as this can provide additional energy savings and improve the overall efficiency of the system. If a customer has a north-facing roof that can accommodate solar panels, this can be a great addition to their iSitePower-M energy storage system.

By adding solar panels, customers can generate their own renewable energy and use it to power their homes or office, reducing their reliance on the grid even further. Additionally, any excess energy generated can be stored in the iSitePower-M battery for later use, maximizing the benefits of the system.

 

IP65 Safety Rating

The iSitePower has a rating of IP65, which means that it is highly resistant to water and dust ingress, making it a suitable option for outdoor installation. This feature provides flexibility for customers who may prefer to install their energy storage system outside their homes or office.

Outdoor installation can have several advantages, such as providing more space for the system, better ventilation, and easier access to maintenance. Additionally, installing the system outdoors can free up space inside the home or office, which can be especially useful for smaller spaces.

 

The iSitePower-M Inverter

The iSitePower’s inverter features a simple and intuitive battery meter that allows customers to easily monitor the unit’s charge and capacity. This feature can provide valuable information to help manage the energy usage to ensure that they have sufficient power available when needed.

The iSitePower-M can also be monitored and controlled remotely using a mobile app. This can provide even greater convenience and flexibility for customers, allowing them to monitor and adjust their energy usage from anywhere using their smartphone or tablet.

 

The iSitePower-M Combo

The all-inclusive nature of the iSitePower solution is definitely one of its major selling points. By combining the inverter and lithium-ion battery into a single stack along with the option to add solar panels, customers can enjoy a complete energy storage solution that is easy to install and use.

Furthermore, the 4.8 kWh Lithium-ion battery provides a good amount of energy storage, which is important for households and offices looking to reduce their dependence on the grid.

 

Expansion and growth

That’s a great feature of the iSitePower-M batteries! The modular design allows customers to easily expand the system’s storage capacity by stacking additional batteries on top of each other.

With the ability to stack up to 3 batteries, customers can potentially increase the system’s storage capacity up to 15kWh, which can be especially useful for those who have higher energy needs or want to store more energy for backup power during extended outages.

The modular design of the iSitePower-M system provides customers with flexibility and cost-effectiveness, allowing them to easily upgrade their system’s storage capacity over time as their energy needs grow

 

Installation Requirements

A certified electrician will have the knowledge and expertise necessary to install the iSitePower system correctly and safely, ensuring that it operates efficiently and effectively. They will also be able to issue the required certification, which is necessary to ensure that the system is compliant with local regulations and requirements.
