Little by little, high-performance batteries begin to be much more affordable for the user. And advanced technology comes along too, as evidenced by the release of Zendure’s new semi-solid state Plu & Play battery.
The maximum use of energy has become a priority for many families, concerned about its impact on the environment and about the high prices derived from the current energy crisis.
It is not surprising, for that reason, that the photovoltaic installations have grown dramatically in number in the last two years. However, in areas with access to the electricity grid, it is usual for these to be for self-consumption with connection to it.
It is a modular energy storage system based on semi-solid state technology
This means that the user only consumes what he needs at the moment, pouring the surplus into the electrical network and being forced to pull from it when the solar panels do not produce enough energy (cloudy days, at night, high consumption peaks, etc).
Zendure SuperBase V Residential Battery
For this reason, many people have considered or are beginning to consider adding storage systems that allow them to take advantage of the full potential of their photovoltaic installations.
And, as we have already told you on a few occasions, the until recently prohibitive prices of residential batteries are beginning to be much more affordable.
This is the case of the new Zendure V battery, which also incorporates all the latest generation technology that we may need.
It is a modular energy storage system based on semi-solid state technology. In other words, in addition to being able to be progressively expanded according to the user’s needs, it has been manufactured in a different way from traditional lithium-ion batteries.
In the case of Zendure’s semi-solid state batteries, which share characteristics with liquid and solid state batteries, the energy density is 228 Wh/kg, offering up to 42% more energy compared to lithium phosphate batteries. iron (LiFePO4).
In addition, this type of battery increases safety by being more resistant to damage of all kinds: crushing, penetration, impacts, short circuits, overload and discharge.
Scalable and versatile
Zendure SuperBase V batteries, both the V4600 Iron Phosphate and V6400 Semi-Solid ranges, are scalable and configurable. This means that the user can choose to start with the 6.4 kWh base cell and easily expand to a total of 64 kWh capacity.
In addition, transport carts with motorized wheels, support for solar charging, electric vehicles and even your own photovoltaic installation with 400 W solar panels can be incorporated.
Zendure SuperBase V6400 Price and Availability
The semi-solid state versions of the Zendure V range are the ones that offer the highest performance in all aspects and even guarantee a performance of at least 80% after 3000 charge cycles. In addition, they provide a power output of 5 kW and an estimated charging time of between 2 and 2.5 hours.
The launch price for a 6.4 kWh module is $3,799, to which must be added an additional $244 for shipping to Spain. That is, a total of 4,043 dollars or about 4,129 euros at the moment.
Although Zendure SuperBase V batteries cannot yet be purchased on the brand’s official website, they can. they can be ordered on kickstarter.com.
The company reports that the first orders placed will start shipping at the end of October, with the first shipments arriving in Europe in mid-December.
