- @SolarEdgeTechnologies has done it again by creating an innovative solution to keep your home powered through all of life’s events. The new SolarEdge Energy Hub with Prisma Technology consists of these key components that make up the system for your home:
a solar inverter,
a battery inverter,
a level 2 EV charging inverter,
and a backup interface.
All of which is managed through the SolarEdge monitoring app. The new Energy Hub allows you to generate, store and monitor your solar power, battery power and electric vehicle. Your home stays on regardless of what mother nature throws your way or the ever growing unreliability of the power company.

Marvelous update again. Thank you sir.
Your new logo should be a sun with your mustache. Kinda catchy
I have a solar edge inverter on my solar, its proved extremely reliable
editing and multi-cam setup is so underrated and under appreciated. great vid with awesome info. i can't believe i'm asking this, but i don't believe i heard this right, but the energy hub CAN work with solaredge's new battery line...right? the lg primes aren't the only compatible battery storage solution?
Yes, we will be doing an updated video soon.
Your videos are very informative. I will be watching for that list of integrated generators and hold off on the purchase of one. Second question: Is there any delay in activation of battery at the time of an outage. Enphase's change over is almost instantaneous. Saves having to reset electronic clocks in home etc.
As i know it, from internet searches, it is three seconds before it kicks in.
Thank you very much for this video. I'm looking at installing a backup interface. Sad to see they dropped the sunlight only backup. I did not know about the span ac boards. Hope they are approved for canadian use.
Question, How reliable compared to Enphase micro-inverters?
My understanding is the initial release energy hub inverters / backup interface can only manage a single inverter-battery's energy through-put in backup mode, and that the continuous power limit from each inverter is 5 kW. The system at release could / can utilize full kWh capacity by toggling between batteries, but can only use one battery at a time per inverter, and only one inverter at a time per Backup Interface. I've not seen any announcement confirming firmware update promised for Q1 2021, to allow for power through-put from multiple inverter-batteries simultaneously (up to 3x 5 kW = 15 kW maximum continuous power).
The SolarEdge rep told me last week that the software is out of beta and inverters are now stackable
When will SolarEdge have the 11.4kW Energy Hub inverter? Or would we have to use two 7.6kW Energy Hub inverters?
You said PST can add a 15KW generator but SE has not added full integration of a generator. So how does PST generator work in the system and does "full integration" mean the approved generators will charge the batteries? Are these generators going to be DC producing generators or do they produce AC that gets converted to DC somewhere? Thanks
This setup have ModBus for send setings from optimizing programm? In our place we have prices from 250 to 1500Eur/MWh
Hello we installed a solar system with a lg battery what is the best way to charge a lg battery when there is no sun light to keep the battery full charge
You forget that the Sol-Ark hybrid inverters exist which are more efficient at converting DC to AC
I think solark did it first 4 years ago. But I really like LG products .do you forsee a system that uses 1 inverter in the future and maybe you can answer why are aren't there such systems yet ? Sonnen has a large kw battery but only 8 kw inverter why is this ? Thanks for any reply.
My understanding is that although configured and marketed as a 'whole home backup' transfer switch, the Prism / EnergyHub system CANNOT be a whole-home backup system for homes served by 100A or more (all homes, by NEC code). The maximum power through-put of the Backup Interface is 78 Amps, no matter how much battery/generator power is connected to it. As a conventional electrician who's done some 'conventional' propane-fueled backup generator systems, I know that the code for backup systems, even non-critical 'optional standby' backup systems, requires that the system have capacity to serve all connected loads -- unless there is a manual load transfer switch. For that reason, the Span panel integration may be as much as anything a move by Solar Edge to shore up its marketing claims that the Backup Interface is a 'whole house' transfer switch. It's 'whole-house' ONLY if there are automatic load-shedding provisions (HVAC turn-off, for example) to ensure the remaining loads do not exceed the maximum power the transfer switch can deliver.
The Solaredge Storedge backup unit now allows 200amps I believe (according to their documentation)
I had SolarEdge and panels installed and can’t get the app to work with out going outside and standing next to it don’t understand why it also doesn’t show the little house My installer was solar mills Help
There is one wrinkle about cost of a system that it seems Solar companies stay away from. And it is a huge plus. And that is the increase in the home equity value based on a solar system being added. While opinions vary, the value of a home might go up by 75% of the cost of the solar system. If you think in terms of net worth, and not just cash outlay, this means your net worth stays about the same. For example, if you installed a $20K system, that cost appears on the liability side of your balance sheet. The 26% tax credit is about $5K on the asset side. And the increase to the home equity is $15K on the asset side. That's $20K of assets. The "payback" time, in these terms, is "right now". Of course, it is a depreciating asset as in 20 or 25 years replacement will be needed. So the contribution to equity arguably diminishes a bit each year. But financially, the money to purchase the system isn't "gone", it is converted into a different form - the hardware. You still have most of it as an asset in another form. You just don't get it back as cash until you sell the house.
Installers in the EU beware: SolarEdge documentation for the smart stuff is terrible
Could you email me so I can ask a few questions on this product ? I'm wanting to buy something and this sound right.
Does the energy hub provide bi-directional EV charging?
Not that I’m aware of
I live in new zealand and am doinf research into this energy hub, any installers in new zealand
They don't answer the phone or chat. Why would you buy something without support.
Would you trust their own battery?
So this hub cannot do LifePO4 batteries?
SolarEdge is working on their own battery, its expected to release next year.
Are these inverters more efficient than the older SolarEdge inverters? My 2018 SolarEdge SE7600A inverter with StorEdge died in January and I just got my solar installer (who no longer does new installs) to switch it out for a loaner used HD Wave inverter. It's not connected to monitoring but I have consumption/production monitoring on my older small Enphase system and it looks like I'm producing more energy compared to similar days last year. They're having trouble getting a new SE7600A inverter and I'm thinking I should try and get them to put in the newer style inverter. But I don't know which one would be equivalent since I have the StorEdge on the old one. I never got batteries but plan to. I guess it depends on what battery but I don't want to lose functionality.
Which 1 is better solar edge or sol-ark
Enphase
I'm not an LG battery fan. I don't like Duracell either. Their batteries have damaged so much equipment due to leaks and lg with fire's lol
Please disregard previous questions didn't get to costs . These prices are double a Tesla system or on par with Sunpower.thanks anyway.
