Chapter 1: Overview
The single phase Energy Hub inverter with prism technology is SolarEdge's all-in-one
solution that uses a single phase DC optimized inverter to manage and monitor solar
power generation, energy storage, EV charging and smart energy devices. When
installed with a battery and the Backup Interface, homeowners are automatically
provided with backup power in the event of grid interruption to power home loads. In
addition, solar energy can be stored in a battery for Smart Energy Management
applications such as export control, offering demand response and peak shaving, and
performing time of use shifting for reduced electric bills.
The Energy Hub Solution Components
Energy Hub inverter - manages battery and system energy, in addition to its
traditional functionality as a DC-optimized PV inverter.
The Connection Unit, located at the bottom of the inverter, allows simple
installation and connectivity to other system components and includes a DC Safety
Switch.
One or two batteries (optional) - DC-coupled batteries designed to work with the
SolarEdge system. The batteries can be connected to the system optionally and
require the Backup Interface to be installed.
Backup Interface - controls disconnection of house loads from the grid and
integrates the following components to enable grid-tied solar backup and Smart
Energy Management. The Backup Interface must be installed to allow the operation
of batteries.
Energy Meter - is used by the inverter for export, import, production and
consumption readings, and for Smart Energy Management applications, such
as: export limitation, time-of-use profile programming and maximizing self-
consumption.
Auto-transformer - handles the phase load balancing.
200A microgrid interconnection device - disconnects the house loads from the
grid in case of a power outage.
Generator hardware support - supports connection for up to 15kW alternative
power supply. Generator connection requires supporting inverter firmware.
Smart EV charger (optional)
