\"Enphase<\/a><\/p>\n

Enphase’s home energy storage solution, the AC Battery, has been quietly added as an eligible system under South Australia’s Home Battery Scheme.<\/p>\n

Up until December 31, 2018, only solar storage systems manufactured or assembled in South Australia (or will be) were eligible under the scheme. This limited choices initially to Sonnen<\/a>, Alpha-ESS<\/a> and Eguana Technologies<\/a>.<\/p>\n

423 subsidies had reportedly been approved to that point (but that doesn’t mean all 432 will result in a purchase) and 4,052 households had requested quotes.<\/p>\n

Soon after the priority period ended, Tesla and LG Chem<\/a> were added as options. The addition of LG Chem in particular will be of interest as it is a comparatively low cost, good quality system.<\/p>\n

Enter Enphase<\/h2>\n

On checking the list of eligible systems yesterday, I noticed that Enphase had also appeared.<\/p>\n

The Enphase AC Battery is a modular system. Based on lithium-iron phosphate chemistry, which is widely regarded as the safest of commonly used lithium-ion chemistries, the AC Battery has a nominal\/usable storage capacity of 1.2kWh. However, additional modules can be easily added.<\/p>\n

The AC Battery also has very limited power output – 260W per battery, but this “stacks” with each module added. As a comparison, the LG Chem RESU 10 (8.8kWh usable storage) offers 5kW output (steady). You’d need 7 AC Battery units to approach the same useable capacity (8.4kWh) and in that scenario, output would only be 1.82kW maximum.<\/p>\n

The Enphase AC Battery is an all-in-one unit that measures just 39cm x 32.5cm x 22cm and weights approximately 25kg. The latest pricing we have noted on SQ’s solar storage comparison table<\/a> is $2,000 (fully installed). It wouldn’t be unreasonable to assume subsequent units will be cheaper if installed at the same time.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to learn more about this energy storage option, SQ’s Ronald posted an Enphase AC Battery review<\/a> back in 2016 you may wish to check out. I don’t think much has changed with the AC Battery since that time, so much of the information would still be relevant.<\/p>\n

If you’re keen on installing Enphase’s battery under the SA’s subsidy scheme, you’ll also need to use a qualified system provider to install a system. Of the 43 qualified system providers<\/a> currently listed, only one is offering Enphase at this point.<\/p>\n

Update:<\/strong> Finn’s pointed out that initially the SA Government stipulated the minimum battery size that can receive a subsidy is 2.5 kilowatt-hours. So you’d need 3 AC batteries minimum – unless they’ve changed the rules.<\/p>\n

About The Home Battery Scheme<\/h2>\n

South Australia’s Home Battery Scheme<\/a> offers a subsidy of up to $6,000 on a battery system and is calculated based on storage capacity \u2013 $600.00 per kilowatt hour for energy concession holders and $500.00 per kilowatt hour for all other households. The subsidy only applies to eligible batteries. Low interest finance is also available to support the purchase a solar power + storage package or for additional solar panels to accompany the installation of a battery system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
