System 1: 64.4 kWh BESS
This section provides a detailed breakdown of the first of two identical, independent systems. Each system is a self-contained power plant, designed to supply half of the total energy demand, ensuring redundancy and compliance.
Total Rated Capacity
64.4 kWh
The maximum theoretical energy storage of the 4 batteries.
Usable Capacity (95% DOD)
61.18 kWh
The practical energy available daily to maximise battery lifespan.
System Weight
560 kg
A critical factor for structural and logistical planning.
Detailed Component Breakdown (System 1)
Energy Storage
4x Fogstar 16.1kWh Batteries
- Role: Store off-peak energy for peak-time use.
- Connection: Wired in parallel to a central DC busbar.
- Total Voltage: 48V (Nominal)
Power Hub
1x Victron Quattro Inverter/Charger
- Role: Manages all power conversion and charging.
- Connection: Connects to grid, batteries, and fuseboard.
- Power: 10kW continuous output.
System Controller
1x Victron Cerbo GX
- Role: The "brain" that automates the charging cycle.
- Logic: Programmed with E7 times to control the Quattro.
- Interface: Provides remote monitoring and control.
Energy Capacity vs. Daily Need
This chart visually confirms that the system's usable energy of 61.18 kWh provides a healthy buffer over its daily 46.5 kWh requirement, ensuring reliability and longevity.
