Energy Hub Inverter and Backup Interface FAQs
SolarEdge Technologies | www.solaredge.com
Q: Does Energy Hub support multiple Smart EV Chargers?
A: Not yet – more than one would work on separate breakers, but only
one behind the inverter.
Q: Does the Energy Hub Inverter have a charge controller that
charges/discharges the batteries when the grid is up or down?
A: Yes, there is a battery management system inside the battery, and an
integrated energy management system in the Energy Hub.
Q: What is the max power you can draw from the battery during an
outage?
A: You can backup 5kW per Energy Hub inverter with the LG Energy
Solutions battery. You can then stack additional batteries, for 10kW or
15kW in backup with two or three inverters respectively.
Q: Can the Energy Hub and Backup Interface provide backup without
a battery (PV-only)?
A: No. Although the system may operate, it is not supported and results
will vary.
Q: Do consumption CTs come separate or are they included with the
Backup Interface?
A: The CTs are built into the Backup Interface and can be used for whole
home backup. For partial home backup, you can relocate to the mains and
use external CTs, which are purchased separately.
Q: In case of a power outage, how long before backup power kicks in?
A: <3seconds.
Q: Are zero-export markets supported?
A: Absolutely.
Q: Does the Energy Hub inverter come with a built-in EV Charger
option, like the EV Charging inverter?
A: No. Energy Hub is preconfigured to easily connect to the SolarEdge
Smart EV Charger (a standalone unit) without the need for additional
