ojeysky: The type I have seen are all 100w+ and I wonder if that's the normal for it. Especially as they have also have heating element. |

Monlo: I watched about the technology that made it possible earlier today. This is awesome. So those with tight spaces in the future can squeeze out more watts per square meter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwHjyeyRofM |

MurderEnglish: Your load looks like less than 200w, what do you mean by the bolded? Also you didn't state the number of hours backup you are looking at. But I can only suggest that the load looks like something two 200ah batteries and a 1 or 1.5kva inverter can handle. For cost, check with an installer or marketer. |

mctfopt: At the bolded, I meant to say Powerbank. For hours of backup, I need at least 24hrs. I understand that NEPA might give light and also my compound has a Mikano that gives us light at least for 3hrs 4days every week. I want to know how much I will budget for this project. I really don't want to buy a generator, the noise alone is killing me. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Expertt: 2:13pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
Good day all, please how many batteries and solar panels can power a 15kw Inverter for 12 hours assuming the total load on the Inverter is 12kw continuously for 12 hours . Note: the load consists of mainly pumps, electric motors and 1kw electric heater. Thanks |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 2:20pm On Jun 07, 2020 |

Expertt: Ol boy is load o! Are you really ready for this? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Oshomo12(m): 3:27pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
Expertt: You can't be putting the inverter on 80% of it's capacity for 12hr, u will kill it. And if u must, get another 15kw and parallel the two(30kw). For the battery and solar panels, seriously, I am not in the mood. 4 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 3:39pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
aizakun: 100+80+50+150+(18x8)=524w 524x1.2(if we factor loss)= 628 You will need about 16KWH of backup for this. At 24v system, that translate to between 600 and 700AH Lifepo4 or 1200AH Lead acid (assuming you apply safety precautions). Do you really want to have 524w all through 24hrs? I don't think so but you have a rough estimate to work with. |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by nonoski: 4:00pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
Expertt: You need a minimum of 20kva diesel generator.. A 15kw inverter cannot power 12kw load for 12hrs. The cost implications of powering a 12kw load is not for your everyday diy |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 4:09pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
aizakun: Go with 400AH(2x200AH 25.6v) Lifepo4 or 800AH (8x200AH 12v), if budget is an issue, you can manage 4x200AH lead acid. 80A MPPT You should get at least 3KW panel array Sellers here can give you pricing. |

I already have 25kva diseal Gen, am planning for 20kva Inverter but I need to know the number of 200ah batteries and 300w mono solar panels that will be able to run 12kw load for at least 12hrs |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 4:25pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
Expertt: Bros I have just done a rough calculation for 0.6kw which will require 350AH for 12hrs you can do the maths of the rest. I forsee over 8000AH, that's going to require a huge money and robust planning |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 4:46pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
Expertt: If you are NOT powering only the inverter, I'll suggest to either get a lower size inverter or upgrade the size of the generator. 20kva inverter and 25kva generator are too close especially when you consider that you may have like 3kva other loads, generator is not good to run at almost 100% capacity. |

Expertt: Hi, good evening... first and foremost, please take your time to plan this setup, it’s an investment you won’t wish you didn’t do well enough, an again opinions won’t be enough, you need to be convinced also that the final plan will work. Well It may not be convenient for your 25kva generator to power 20kva Inverter, considering other load to power. You could chat us up on whatsapp; 08031138665 www.jekitech.com

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by remizvxcq(m): 7:57pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
Expertt: Your question calls for professional services. It cannot be adequately addressed in a DIY forum. But we can start. A well-ventilated inverter runs at internal temperature about 40-65 degrees centigrade. Considering temperature derating and PF, the maximum continuous output at 40degrees is about 61 percent of its nameplate kVa. Your 15kW inverter * 0.61 will carry a continuous load of about 9.15kW. In the first instance, the types of loads you mention tend to cycle on-off, so they stress inverters more and heat it up more, which will lower the power delivery, so expect lower supply for continuous load. In the second instance, your energy storage capacity will determine how long the inverter will supply for. You mention that the loads are mainly pumps, motors and heaters. Generally, it is advised to not put these HVAC-type loads on solar systems because they usually have start & stop surges current that may be many times their continuous running current. To be conservative, budget 2x or 3x provision for the surge power of the inverter. You also need to allow for the tare of the inverter system itself. So your 15kW inverter seems inadequate on its own, your system will need to be expertly built up with solar PV, battery storage, and a backup generator, and solid loads management, As for number of batteries and solar panels and 12 hours. Presumably you want to carry these loads by solar and storage during daytime? Batteries: 12kw for 12 hours seems to be straight-forward 144kWh, say 150kWh for system losses, but there's more to worry about. Allow for some redundancy: 2x for lead acid, 1.5x for lithium. So, 300kWh for lead-acid, 225kWh for LFP. At 48v nominal, 6250ah lead acid, 4700ah LFP. Unless you intend to disconnect the loads after the 12 hour shift, then reconnect them before the next 12 hour shift, you will need to provide for their consumption all the time they are connected! You need more batteries. How many 200ah lead-acid batteries are you going to configure in series-parallel, for your system to be efficient at 48v? 2v 3000ah+ batteries are available if you have a forklift. How will you maintain this battalion of lead-acid batteries? You are in high-voltage lithium territory Solar You should plan for the worst month of the year, so assume 4 hours of peak sun hours. All other daylight is a bonus. There's more mathematics, but to keep this short: You will likely need a backup generator, and diversion loads. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Blueprintz: 8:01pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
Please am new here and I know you guys can point me to the right direction.. I have 3 new batteries connected to my inverter and i read that gel/agm battery should not be less than 50% when using. How can i prevent the battery going below that, assuming am already sleeping. Do you guys have any device to shut the inverter automatically when it get to 50%? Please help me too mcTrinity sir Which battery balacer can I use for 3 battery connected together? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mcTrinity(m): 8:05pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
Expertt: Hi Expertt, You need only 132 units of 200Ah Lead-Acid Battery to give you 6600Ah Battery Bank (@48V and 50% DoD) that you need... You also need 160 units of 300W PV Modules to give you 48KW PV Array that you need... You also want to know how many Charge Controllers you'll need ![]() Cheers |
