• Product Description

    One of the  most reputable inverters on the market  the Goodwe ES 4.5kW Hybrid inverter just does it all.
    Ahead of its time, the Goodwe came on the market just as Hybrid inverters were becoming popular, with  thousands of units sold every year  and with little to no issues it's the SolarAdvice's go-to when suggesting an affordable, reliable and robust option.
    What makes it so special?
    The biggest advantages are the ability to have  essential and non-essential loads , this enables you to add one essential load that consists of the lights, fridge and appliances you want as a first priority. The non-essential load can consist of bigger appliances such as washers, dryers, geysers or pumps for when you have excess power coming from the Solar array it can start powering those as a second priority.  This is perfect for those wanting to run an energy sufficient household .
    You also have 2 MPPT inputs that allow you to have  2 solar arrays independent from each other , this is especially good for sun coverage on roof structures that get different exposure strength during the day. Eliminating the inefficient panel issue you can have with the single string option.
    Not only is the inverter fanless making it silent, but you can also install it outside undercover in a dry area out of the way.

    How Hybrid Inverters Work

    How Does The Hybrid Inverter Work?

    The Hybrid inverter gives you the best of both worlds, not only does it act like a Grid-Tied inverter, but it also gives you the freedom of an Off-Grid inverter.

    Often when wanting to go solar we think of  "Off-Grid" and independence , but what if you can do that and fall back to the grid if for a period or even a moment you needed extra power? Then a Hybrid inverter is an  ideal solution , you can have your cake and eat it too, plus it's cheaper!

    Here are the different arrangements that you can have:

     

    As you can see you can use this inverter as a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) for when the grid goes down, or you can use it as Solar solution and you can use the backup system for night time use. Perfect for those looking to start with a backup in order to deal with Load Shedding, then upgrade to a Solar solution later by adding panels.

     If you're looking for an automated solution that you will never need to manually intervene with, this is your perfect power companion .

    Thank you for the answer but you did not answer the second part. On PV Master, do I select US3000C * 2 with the new one as master with the old one ?

    Hi Hein, apologies for not answering that question. I believe that you would be correct, as the battery would be in position *2 in your rack?

    2. I have one US3000 battery connected to my Goodwe 4.6 es system with 18 x 225W panels. My question is that I want to add another battery. The new one is the US 3000C. On the PV Master the option is either US 3000 * 1 or 2 Or US300C *1 Or 2. Do I make the new one the master and select US3000C*2 ? I could not get an answer from Sisanda at Goodwe.

    Hi Hein,

    When adding a new battery to your current battery bank, it would need to be added as the Master battery, yes.

    Hi Simphiwe, no we are an online store with the option to collect from our warehouse in Germiston
    4. Will this inverter work with only a 1x 3.5kw lithium battery? I was told to have at least 3x 3.5kwh Pylontech US3000C batteries or else it will trip if I go beyond a load of about 1.7kw, something regarding continuous load and battery outputs, I don't know but, is this in fact the case?

    Hi, you can use 1 x 3.5kWh battery but your load will need to be very low, for example, if it's to run lights, a modem, and say a TV you should be good for a couple of hours. If you want to use a kettle, pumps or anything more intensive then you need to increase the capacity.
    5. Is it possible to put 2 goodwe inverter in parallel to get a 10kw
  5. Q Is it possible to put 2 goodwe inverter in parallel to get a 10kw

    Hi There, unfortunately, these units can not be paralleled 
    6. Hi. I have a Goodwe system installed and was told that 1) when the battery is full and 2) the sun is out and so the PV panels are receiving power - then if I choose to use my washing machine or oven (for example) then the solar power will 'spill over' onto the Eskom board (which is set up for large appliances) and use solar power. This sounds to be good to be true. Is this in fact true? We can't supply power to the grid in our area, so no power is going there.

    A At the moment you aren't able to feedback to the grid, this might change in the future but the inverter can feedback.
    7. I have this system installed. It is all good until I overload it. If there is no Escom and I put on the kettle the system trips and I cannot re-set it- i rwmain without power until Eskom comes back! Similarly if there is Eskom but I overload the system by adding more than the 4.6kw load, the system trips and I cannot reset it!?? How do I re-set the system after an overload "trip"??

    Hi There, it is advisable not to overload your system this can cause issues later down the line. The re-set procedure for each inverter should be in the user manual provided with the inverter.
