Kyiv Apartment Energy Storage Project
JTHouse Solar provided a 10kW solar PV system, 20kW inverter and 30kWh battery storage for an apartment in Kyiv. The system combines solar generation
and battery storage to support essential electricity needs and provide backup power during grid outages.
Project Scenario
The apartment required a reliable energy solution that could provide solar power for daily electricity use while maintaining backup power when the grid was unavailable.
The Challenge
Grid interruptions can affect essential household electricity use. At the same time, making better use of available solar energy can help reduce dependence on grid electricity. The customer needed a solution that combined solar generation, energy storage and backup power in one system.
The Solution: Solar + Energy Storage for Apartment
JTHouse Solar implemented a 10kW solar PV + 20kW inverter + 30kWh battery storage system.
Solar power can be used to support the apartment's electricity needs, while the battery stores energy for use when backup power is required. This integrated approach improves solar energy utilization and provides greater power continuity.
