Huawei Luna photovoltaic batteries
A photovoltaic battery is essential element in all solar energy installation that will allow us it stores the energy that is generated thanks to the solar panels during the hours of sunshine, and be able to use it when it is not possible to produce energy, such as on cloudy days or at night. Thus, we will have electricity at any timeeven when the solar panels are not working.
Coward Therefore, batteries store photovoltaic energy And when the solar panels stop producing or when more is consumed at home than produced, they supply the home with energy. Today, incorporating a battery into our self-consumption system is the decision we can make more efficient and profitable due to the current situation of the electricity market.
The connection between photovoltaic modules and batteries for solar panelsis achieved through solar inverter or through a charge controller. The compatibility between the inverter and the batteries is a fundamental element for the correct operation of the system.
Huawei has on the market three different types of lithium batteries, called Luna batteries:
- MONTH 2000-5-S0.
- MONTH 2000-10-S0.
- MONTH 2000-15-S0.
These batteries are modulation, which means that the features they offer are similar, the difference between them being based on the fact that one more module is added to increase their capacity. For this reason, the basic difference between one model or another is the capacity or amount of energy they can store.
In order to make the most of the energy we produce, it is best to opt for solar self-consumption with accumulators or batteries. Let\’s see what they are below characteristics of each battery model Moon by Huawei.
Battery Huawei Luna 2000-5-S0
Type of The Huawei Luna 5 kW/h lithium battery is the smallest of the series and the ideal for average residential photovoltaic installations in Spain. The use of this battery allows obtaining an additional 4 hours of self-consumption per day, based on the average energy consumption of a Spanish home.
some the most important features from this battery are:
- Designed for string investors.
- Works with both single-phase and three-phase systems.
- Allow 100% download.
- Its capacity can be expanded.
- It offers very low weight and size. Dimensions 670 x 150 x 600 mm. Weight of 63.8 kg.
This model is compatible with Huawei KTL single-phase L1 and three-phase KTL M1 inverters. It consists of a controller or BMS at the top and a 5kW/h battery module that can be expanded with up to 2 more units. It has IP65 protection, a 10-year warranty and an expansion capacity of up to 30kW/h for our self-consumption system with Huawei hybrid inverter. To have 20, 25 or 30 kW/h, an additional BMS module and a total of 4.5 or 6 battery modules are required.
Battery Huawei Luna 2000-10-S0
bATTERY Huawei Luna of 10 kW/h They offer the same features as the Huawei Luna 2000-5-S0 battery. Although they allow storing more energy, which is very useful in the case homes with high energy consumption. For this reason, they have a weight (113.8 kg) and a larger size (dimensions of 670 x 150 x 960 mm), since another module is added.
Battery Huawei Luna 2000-15-S0
The Huawei LUNA2000-15-S0 battery model was designed for very large homes or for industrial or business buildings. This lithium battery with a capacity of 15 kW/h offers similar characteristics to the two previous batteries of 5 kW/h and 10 kW/h. The main difference lies in its storage capacity, size (dimensions of 670 x 150 x 1320 mm) and its weight (163.8 kg).
Huawei Luna battery maintenance
A common feature of these three battery models is their zero maintenance because they use lithium technology, which means that they do not need any type of maintenance and that, in addition, they can be installed in any area of the house since, being lithium batteries, they do not emit gases, so they can be installed in a unventilated place.
The only maintenance they will require is the need to check the condition of the wiring and connections, especially between the batteries and the power inverter.
Huawei Luna battery compatibility
Huawei Luna batteries are compatible with certain solar inverters:
- SUN2000-10KTL-M1
- SUN2000-8KTL-M1
- SUN2000-6KTL-M1
- SUN2000-5KTL-M1
- SUN2000-4KTL-M1
- SUN2000-3KTL-M1
- SUN2000-6KTL-L1
- SUN2000-5KTL-L1
- SUN2000-4.6KTL-L1
- SUN2000-4KTL-L1
- SUN2000-3.68KTL-L1
- SUN2000-3KTL-L1
- SUN2000-2KTL-L1
The batteries are compatible regardless of their capacity and rated power of the inverter. However, it is recommended that larger capacity batteries be incorporated for higher power ratings. This is because if the nominal power of the inverter is high, we will talk about an installation that can support a large number of panels. This in turn translates into more energy being produced and therefore more energy that can be stored.
Warranty and return on investment of Huawei Luna batteries
Huawei offers a 10-year warranty for Luna battery models. This warranty covers malfunctions that may occur due to manufacturing. If the battery stops working due to improper use, the warranty does not cover it.
another of the advantages of Huawei Luna batteries is that if a facility is temporarily disconnected from the grid, they provide a temporary energy support upon installation.
At the same time and as we just checked, adding a battery to our PV system makes the final price of the system more expensive. However, a larger investment can also mean a larger subsidy or bonus, always depending on the city in which we are located. We will be able to have Help European, regional and municipal with discounts in IBI and ICIO. In any case, even though I had none of these aids, the economic recovery would take a little more than 10 yearsonly for the savings we are going to get in the current monthly bill.
For this reason, to calculate the return on investment we need to take into account factors such as photovoltaic production capacity, self-consumed energy, compensation of surpluses discharged into the network and inflation.
At , we advise you in such a way as to obtain maximum savings and maximum profitability from your photovoltaic installation, efficiently dimensioning the systems according to the needs of your home. When distributing Huawei Luna batteries we can personally advise you which model is the most interesting for your photovoltaic installation. Also, if you had a Huawei M0 inverter which was not compatible with batteries, will replace it for free.
