Is the Afore Stack-Mounted Residential (ESS) AF10000-40000W-HA4 for you?
Choosing an ESS is a significant investment. The Afore HA4 series is not a “one-size-fits-all” product; it is a premium, high-capacity solution.
You should consider this system if:
- You have three-phase power: While many Aussie homes are single-phase, larger modern builds and rural properties often use three-phase. This system is optimised for high-voltage three-phase hybrid setups.
- You own an electric vehicle (EV): With a discharge capacity of up to 40kW, this system can comfortably handle the high-surge demands of Level 2 EV chargers without drawing from the grid.
- You experience frequent blackouts: The system features UPS-level switching. This means your lights won’t even flicker if the grid goes down.
- You want “future-proof” scalability: The stackable design allows you to start with a smaller capacity (e.g., 10kWh) and add modules as your energy needs grow.
It may not be right if:
- You have a small, single-phase terrace or apartment.
- Your daily energy consumption is below 15kWh.
