Whole home back and DC electric vehicle charging just got an upgrade in the UK and beyond! Check out the Sigenergy SigenStor!
This was provided to us free of charge in exchange for this video and we delve into the installation process and powerful features of this feature rich product.
From the installation on the wall to app operation and gateway testing.
This is unlike anything else we have tried before and the quality speaks for itself. The datasheets and product information is listed below along with a link to the installer portal for any installers who want to take the free training Sigenergy offer.
Check them out below

Installed a three phase one last month along with their gateway. So easy to install and the user app is very good.

Yes we use the SiGe here in Ireland, it is the best one out there on data specs but also it is 1K more expensive than the Sofar powerall which has less depth, great for utility rooms. nothing lasts outside where we are!

A nice looking bit of kit, Mark. One or two things I noted during the install - design issues, not installer issues 🙂 - the AC power connector to the inverter doesn't give much room for the bend in the AC cable. Maybe the manufacturer should have a right-angled terminal connector as an option to make the electrician's life a wee bit easier! Secondly, the finished outdoor unit is very smart but I think I would be fitting some kind of mesh to close-off the gap at the back of the unit to prevent rodent damage to cables or wasp nests. The changeover contactor has to be break-before-make, of course, and so there is no guarantee that any equipment like routers or desktop PCs will not 'see' the grid drop out. I would always advise the use of UPS for these devices. The minimum delay before back-sync and automatic reconnection to the grid from island mode required by G99 is 20s (clause 10.3.4). I would say it should be a minimum of 60s if the installation is supplied from an overhead MV distribution network to allow any auto-reclosing equipment on the overhead feeder to have finished its sequence. Finally, I'm a bit wary of the use of a C125 incoming MCCB(?). Installations in rural areas supplied from pole-mounted transformers can have surprisingly low prospective fault currents, so a busbar fault in the gateway might not be cleared! Thanks for another very detailed and informative video.

Thanks! The connector space is pretty roomy tbh behind the cover panel. Perhaps deceptive on the video. But as an installer more than happy with wiring room at the inverter and gateway. Enclosure around cables is always a battle outdoors. That said rodents and wasps will find a way past most barriers. Absolutely correct this is not UPS but the time is in the milli seconds. We have tried this on multiple similar solutions from other manufacturers. Most past the router and PC test tbf to them. Which is incredible really. In terms of the OCPD we need to remember we are protecting faults within the installation. Those are selected based on design considerations. It can not be expected of manufacturers to provide a one size fits all. In the circumstances you describe the breakers can if required be changed. That said much like main tails into a regular consumer unit the service fuse is always a final catch all in terms of short circuit in the main switchgear. Luckily here we have plenty of fault current. Thanks for watching.

Very interesting product. Not able to see any prices online or anything though, so my guess is they're quite pricey. If they can match GivEnergy prices, they're on to a winner.

Can it be used as AC Coupled or only as Hybrid with Solar? When it is Hybrid does the ‘backup’ supply keep the inverter working ?

D'oh, I'd pretty much made up my mind to go with GivEnergy (but not the all-in-one due to present scalability & cost) but SigEnergy looks very interesting. DC charging module as well. Key point being is cost? Is it comparable with GivEnergy, which I can easily price check with other products. I've not found pricing on SigEnergy SigenStor. Good vid.
