Introduction
SolarEdge’s StorEdge Solution can be used for various applications that enable energy independence for system owners, by
utilizing a battery to store power and supply power as needed. The StorEdge Solution is based on and managed by the StorEdge
Inverter with Backup (referred to as “StorEdge inverter” or “inverter” throughout the document) for both PV and battery
management, and is compatible with the Tesla Powerwall Battery.
This document describes the main operating modes and applications of the StorEdge Solution with Backup.
NOTE
The StorEdge inverter requires CPU version 3.18xx and above. If an upgrade is required contact SolarEdge support for
an upgrade file and instructions.
StorEdge Operation Modes
Backup Power with Smart Energy Management
Use some of the stored energy for backup power and the rest for smart energy management applications (detailed below). The
StorEdge inverter monitors the grid, and when there is a power outage, it automatically switches to backup mode,
disconnecting from the grid and supplying power to backed-up loads.
