Thanks for these great educational posts. I learned a lot from you and actually got convinced to install a deye system. I'm on 5Kw Deye, 2 X US3000 pylons, and 14 X 410w poly panels(east-west orientation form longer stretch of solar power). The system works very well, I'm still adjusting to it. It is grid tied, so when I deplete my batteries at night, it then switches to the grid. I can also export to grid side of the inverter(export to CT). So during the day when the batteries are fully charged and there isn't any other usage, I use the power from panels and batteries to heat up the geyser(3kw element for 150L) or cook using induction stove/oven/insta-pot. At the rate I'm going, my electricity bill is down to about 25%, and it could go down further with more optimizations. So thank you very much.

@MelvinPhuti3 жыл бұрын
One thing noted here on time of use, your setting in the afternoon is 80%, which means the inverter will use the battery up to 80% state of charge if there isn't enough solar power. I have mine at 30% throughout day and night to shave off the electricity bill as much as possible (our power outages are not as problematic anymore, so never been out of utility power for months now). Also, if you have a bi-directional meter, you could benefit from exporting excess power to the grid whenever it is available. The bi-directional meter will run in reverse, therefore giving you kWh credits. So even if the utility does not buy from you, you actually get to benefit from the kWh units anyway, so nothing to lose there.

good day Micheal and Dr. Solar, If you have the grid connected then the grid input can also act as an out for exporting power back to the grid. This feature is nice since you can connect higher power loads ( beyond rating of the inverter) on the grid side so that they can be powered with solar power if available. You can limit the actual export to the utility by installing the CT (shipped with the inverter) passed the distribution point where you've connected your 'big load' and activating zero export. That way the big load will run with a mix of both solar and grid minimizing your bill.

In the manual it says 13 + 13 Amps max for the PV power. 8 panels in one string looks fine, but you can also put 5 + 5 panels in two strings to PV 1 and 2. Another option is to overpanel the inverter more than the rated Wattage. In case of full sunshine and 12 panels 550w each the energy over the rated inverter Wattage shall be clipped and can't be used. But this happens only at rare situations. But pls. confirm this with the manufacturer and your contractor installing the system.

I have a grid tied inverter (not hybrid) with older panels. Due to regulations I cannot do much changes to this system. However I want my new deye 12kw 3phase hybrid, to be able to charge it's batteries from the existing panels/inverter, as well as charge the batteries from grid when/if necessary. How would I go about doing that? The deye will be set to zero export, as I am not allowed to sell more than the old panels/inverter can produce. I plan on adding new panels to the deye, so essentially i will have two systems connected. With only one of them exporting to grid

Hey man, enable "Time of Use" and unselect all the options for "Grid Charge". If you unselect "Time of Use", it will always Grid Charge to 100% capacity, so enable it and just unselect all the Grid Charge options. This will cause the batteries to drop to your discharge threshold, so be careful. Lastly, set your preferred operating setting to "battery first", not "load first".
