[Sticky] Home energy storage & battery register
Posted by: @arundalepSolaredge Energy Bank DC coupled
10 kWh (9.7 usable).
Nissan Leaf 30 kWh with Indra V2G charger (hacked of course) giving a usable 21 kWh of battery storage.
Both are integrated with our Home Assistant based HEMS to allow everything to play nicely together.
I love that!
Unfortunately there doesn't appear currently to be a V2G available on the market (the ones out there are, I believe, all associated with trials). Once one comes out I'm sorely tempted to replace our 'second' car (a petrol fiesta) with an ageing leaf (I dont yet have a battery, other than the one in our Kia e-niro which, sadly, isnt bidirectional).
4kW peak of solar PV since 2011; EV and a 1930s house which has been partially renovated to improve its efficiency. 7kW Vaillant heat pump.
