Distribution deal for modular energy system

The Off gen energy storage system from Aceleron will be distributed in the UK by environmental products supplier, Nuenta, in a new partnership.

The all-in-one modular device is designed for both residential and light commercial use and works with solar photovoltaic systems. It gives homeowners the fl exibility to use their own PV-generated electricity, low-tariff grid energy, or both.

The modular nature of the Off gen system means users can choose the appropriate capacity for their needs, adding more batteries should power demand increase. It can also run in series – up to three units, providing a maximum of 33kWh.

With integrated remote monitoring capabilities, users and service engineers have the ability to check the system’s status, monitor the solar/grid inputs/ outputs, send maintenance requests and receive updates.

Nuenta will be working with Aceleron to develop an installation training programme, as well as providing pre and post sales support to customers throughout their energy storage journey. ◼ phamnews.co.uk/123/67
