Battery Storage

BATTERY STORAGE AND OUR EXPERT RENEWABLES TEAM

Welcome to CEF, where we're redefining how you harness and manage energy with cutting-edge technology.

Battery storage, a game-changing innovation, offers a dynamic way to store excess energy and optimise its usage. But what exactly is battery storage, and how can our dedicated Renewables Team of experts help you unlock its potential?

UNVEILING BATTERY STORAGE

ENERGY WHEN YOU NEED IT

Battery storage systems are advanced devices that store electricity generated from renewable sources, such as solar panels or wind turbines. These systems consist of high-capacity batteries that capture surplus energy during periods of low demand. When energy consumption peaks or when renewable sources are inactive, the stored electricity is released, ensuring a steady and reliable power supply.

    GivEnergy installers automatically earn rewards such as Amazon vouchers or free GivEnergy kit, through their generous loyalty scheme.

  • Sunsynk hold the top spot for one of the most expandable battery storage solutions.

    Their 5.13kWh batteries can be paralleled up to 32 times, and their inverters can be paralleled up to 16 times in both single and three-phase applications.

    Their popularity has risen due to offering a wide range of hybrid configurations - the widely popular 3.6kW 1ph hybrid can input up to 7kW of solar PV.

    Their latest release, the Lifelynk All-in-one 3.6kW inverter and 3.84kWh battery, is predicted to take the social housing market by storm.

  • The Libbi inverter and battery system comes in two sizes. The 3.6kW and 5kW inverters can be paired with up to 20kWh of modular battery storage capacity, starting in increments of 5kWh. The Myenergi Libbi offers the full ecosystem for energy management, bringing together solar energy production, energy storage, electric vehicle charging, and power diversion/immersion control in a unified and integrated system.

    Their inclusive app allows users to track all aspects of their energy system, providing a convenient way to manage and optimise energy consumption and production. In-person training is no longer needed to purchase and install the Libbi, which has been reflected in the warranty documentation.

  • iCS have ensured safety is at the forefront of their design, using the latest battery technology (LiFePO4), an inbuilt fire suppression system exists within the battery and communicates with the BMS, making iCS stand out amongst competitors.

    With a focus on domestic storage, the 5kWh batteries come with integrated handles to make for an easy lift, and the inverter has quick connectors for all power connections, DC, AC and communication.

DOMESTIC BATTERY STORAGE

DOMESTIC BATTERY STORAGE AND OUR EXPERT RENEWABLES TEAM

At CEF, we’re elevating the UK’s homeowners’ capacity for self-sufficiency, through market-leading hardware, and software solutions.

Battery storage is the final component of the renewable energy eco-system. Batteries play a crucial role in maximising the self-consumption of solar energy and increasing energy independence for homeowners and businesses.

UNVEILING BATTERY STORAGE

POWERING YOUR FUTURE, TODAY

Battery storage systems empower homeowners to better manage their energy usage, save money on electricity bills, and contribute to a more sustainable energy future. Homeowners can store electricity when rates are low and use it during periods of higher rates, effectively lowering their overall electricity costs. By storing excess renewable energy and using it when needed, homeowners can reduce their reliance on fossil fuels and decrease their carbon footprint, contributing to a cleaner environment.

  • One of the world’s leading microinverter manufacturers. Enphase is a global technology company with an innovative and intelligent home energy solution that seamlessly integrates generation, storage, management, and control.

    Microinverters differ from traditional inverters by being installed directly on individual solar panels, rather than at a central location for the entire solar array. This allows for greater flexibility, improved performance monitoring, and increased energy production.

    The Microinverters convert direct current (DC) produced by the solar panels into alternating current (AC) for use in your home.

    The Enphase Micro-Inverter has a 25-year manufacturer guarantee (when teamed with the Enphase Envoy), and the burst technology allows their microinverters to produce more at dawn, dusk, and in low-light conditions.
