A Bradford Solar ChargePack includes: Tesla Powerwall 2, solar panels, inverter, DC optimisers and Tesla App monitoring, and is installed by a Tesla and Clean Energy Council Certified Bradford Solar Installer.

The savings that can be generated by using a Bradford Solar ChargePack with Powerwall depends on your location, the electricity rate in that area, how you consume energy throughout the day and several other factors. Generally however, ChargePack will benefit those who use most of their electricity at night, as they can store solar energy during the day and use it during the evening. Speak to one of our team on 1800 332 332 for a more accurate understanding of your potential savings.

Powerwall is a state of the art Tesla battery system for residential and light commercial applications that enables the storage of energy such as solar power. Commonly, Powerwall can be used to store solar energy during the day for use at night time. It can also provide backup power in case of a grid outage. Depending on where you live and the electricity rates in your area, Powerwall can potentially save you money by shifting energy consumption from high to low rate periods. Lastly, it can also help you take control of your energy and achieve self sufficiency from the grid.

Tesla Powerwall is wall or floor mounted, attractive and comes with a 10 year warranty. Bradford Energy have chosen to supply Tesla Powerwall 2 as part of our high quality solar systems as we know it is one of the safest, best performing, and cost effective products on the market. It is also extremely easy to maintain requiring no intervention once installed. Take control of your energy today.

Tesla Powerwall 2 is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation. Floor or wall mounted options are available. Generally Powerwall 2 would be installed within the family garage area.

The Bradford Solar ChargePack includes Tesla Powerwall 2. It has 13.5kWh of energy capacity, can charge and discharge at 7kW peak / 5kW continuous power. It is designed for daily storage and consumption of solar power and provision of backup power.

Tesla Powerwall uses advanced lithium ion technology.

The Bradford Solar ChargePack includes SolarEdge DC optimiser technology.

Power optimizers increase the energy output from PV systems by constantly tracking the maximum power point (MPPT) of each module individually. Furthermore, the power optimisers monitor the performance of each module and communicate performance data to the monitoring portal for enhanced, cost-effective module-level maintenance. Each power optimizer is equipped with the unique SafeDC™ feature which automatically shuts down modules' DC voltage whenever the inverter or grid power is shut down. The MPPT per module allows for flexible installation design with multiple orientations, tilts and module types in the same string.

In traditional Solar PV strings without optimisers, issues such as shading on a single panel would affect the entire string equally. For example, shading 50% of one panel would reduce the entire system efficiency by 50%. The DC optimisers allow each panel to work independently, so only the output of the afflicted panel will be affected. So if one panel goes down, or is not performing well, the rest of your panels can still be working at optimal output.

All Bradford Solar packs that include SolarEdge systems include SolarEdge DC Optimisers on the rear of each solar panel.

Electricity is either connected at 230 or 240 volts (single-phase, which accounts for the majority of domestic situations), or 400 and 415 Volts (three-phase). The latter is better suited for powerful appliances. A single phase connection is common in small to medium sized houses that use an average amount of electricity. Three phase connections are more common in larger houses that utilise a lot of electricity, or in rural areas.

You are able to purchase either a single phase or three phase inverter. Solar power systems installed on a three phase property can have either a three phase or a single phase inverter – a single phase inverter will deliver power to one phase (one circuit) only, while a three phase inverter will deliver power equally to all three phases (three circuits).

1. Big electric motors (usually more than 2 kilowatt) need three-phase power. This includes ducted air conditioning or large workshop equipment.

2. Large domestic installations sometimes have three-phase because it distributes the total load in a way that ensures that the current in each phase is lower.
