Eguana Technologies, sometimes incorrectly referred to as "Iguana" or "Goanna", has been in the power electronics game for a couple of decades. Headquartered in Canada, the company has manufacturing facilities in Europe and North America, and also has a facility in South Australia for assembling some of its solar battery products.
Eguana Technologies used to have three battery storage product lines - Enduro, Evolve and Elevate. But as at March 2023, only the latter two were current.
The Evolve is Eguana's home battery storage solution, which has been available in two variants:
- Evolve LFP AU: 14 kWh storage capacity (base model), expandable to 42 kWh. Incorporates Pylontech lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4 / LFP) modules.
- Evolve ESS AU: 13 kWh storage capacity (base model), expandable to 39 kWh. Uses LG Chem Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) battery modules.
While a tried and tested chemistry, NMC has has a shorter cycle life and degrades faster than chemistries such as Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4).
The power output of both variants is 5 kW steady. Both also offer automated backup power with solar charge and black start capability.
Further technical details for the Evolve ESS AU are included on our solar battery comparison table.
Eguana solar batteries are backed by a 10-year product warranty.
The company certainly has a keen interest in Australia. In March 2023, Eguana announced it had acquired SolarLab - an Adelaide company that provides solar and battery installation services nationally.
