Hanwha Q Cells partners with Samsung SDI to offer PV and storage solution

Q Home will be available to German customers from December 2014 with two kits on offer - the 4.68 kWp or 6.24 kWp.  The kits incorporate the Samsung SDI storage solution and will contain 18 or 24 high-yield Q Cells Q.PRO-G3 260W modules, the Samsung SDI 3,6kWh storage system, a one-phase inverter, a mounting system and all the necessary electronic equipment. There will also be the option to install in an east-west orientation.

The energy storage solution will be Samsung SDI’s latest ‘All-in-One’ product launched earlier this year. This Kit will thus comprise products from the top-companies in each sector and enable solar customers to become more energy self-sufficient through the integrated self-consumption solution.

“Through the cooperation with Samsung SDI, we aim to extend our customer base in the residential module market and solutions segment” said Justin Lee, CCO at Hanwha Q Cells. “Selecting and installing a PV rooftop system can be perceived as complex and time-consuming by many homeowners. With the latest Samsung SDI storage technology and our powerful Q Cells PV kits we will offer Q.Home, a convenient and easy solution for homeowners from a single source.”

The solution will enable the homeowner to reduce dependency on the utility grid and advance towards energy self-reliance. It will also enable homeowners to cut their energy bills and gain greater independence from escalating energy prices. A family of 4 with an annual consumption of 4400 kwh should be able to consume 2200 kwh of self-generated electricity per year. The energy generated by the residential PV system is fed into the storage system. Both the homeowner and the service expert can obtain a real-time overview of how much energy remains in the storage system through PC and smartphone software.

Increasing numbers of homeowners are combining PV with a storage solution with a particular increase in Germany where around 20 percent of end customers who installed a PV system in 2014 also own a storage solution.
