SolaX Power eyes a net zero future

TOWARD A NET-ZERO FUTURE

AUSTRALIA’S ROOFTOP PV MARKET continues to

evolve and the government’s greater attention on building a smart energy future demands innovative solutions and technologies.

SolaX Power, one of the earliest enterprises to deliver hybrid inverters to the Australian market, has been committed to selfdeveloping and innovating PV and energy storage technology for more than a decade.

The company has continued to invest in the Australian market and has been active on many fronts including contributing to Australian VPP programs and teaming with local partners to provide feed-in-tariffs to residents.

SolaX has also maintained the pace in R&D to spawn a series of new products. The latest generation of energy storage systems, X-ESS G4, was recently released into the Australian market.

The new energy storage system has an elegant and appealing look with its futuristic grey modular design.

In addition the X-ESS G4 delivers many advances on the previous generation: 1. Higher max. DC input current 16A to satisfy large power solar panels 2. Micro-grid function available 3. Compatibility with diesel generators 4. On & off-grid parallel connection to increase system capacity 5. All-in-one solution with Matebox to save installation time, and 6. Automatic warm up function for T30 LFP batteries which keeps the system running normally during cold winter days. SolaX aims to set up an intelligent household ESS ecosphere that offers a greener lifestyle to residents.

One small step to realising this goal is the development of the SolaX adaptor box, a device matching the X-ESS G4 to supply surplus power to a heat pump to increase household self-consumption rates.

This function is to be expanded to a new generation of SolaX on-grid inverters soon.

Also during 2022, SolaX will be releasing its own EV charger which will be fully compatible with the SolaX energy storage system and monitoring platform.

The EV charger has built in type-A RCD protection and 6mA DC protection, integrated RFID function and multiple working modes to fit different situations.

VPPs

In further developments, SolaX has been supplying Virtual Power Plant (VPP) solutions globally and teams up with multiple domestic partners such as Reposit Power, SwitchDin, Evergen and GreenSync to work on VPP programs, linking its self-developed Triple Power LFP batteries to smart networks.

SolaX provides practical solutions in accordance with Australian demands and market impacts from blackouts due to bushfires or flood.

Currently the SolaX R&D team is assessing further possibilities in the micro-grid field beyond VPPs.

In the on-grid inverter field, SolaX has just released the latest generation of three-phase on-grid inverters: MIC G2 from 3KW-15KW with 2 MPPT, PRO G2 from 8KW-30KW with max 3 MPPT which is smaller, lighter and has a wider power range than the previous generation.

With advances of the energy storage industry in mind, SolaX laid out a series of strategic plans which included establishing local service teams in each state and territory to provide quick and professional responses to every corner of the nation.

The SolaX R&D team conducts rigorous tests in labs to ensure all products and solutions are reliable enough under harsh conditions.

John Grimes of the Smart Energy Council recently commented: “SolaX was the first company to bring the hybrid inverter into the Australian market… and best of all, SolaX provides strong technical support right here in Australia.” Joey Zhang, general manager of SolaX Power’s Australian office, explained “We’ve established the partnership with VPP providers like Reposit Power, SwitchDin, Evergen, GreenSync. And we provide 12 years warranty for single-phase string inverters.

“It’s a good solution for a good cause. SolaX is devoted in researching and developing the core technology of photovoltaic systems. After more than 10 years’ practice and innovation, SolaX continues to explore solar power developments as the front line with a calling to achieve a clean and sustainable future.”
