GoodWe's New Hybrid Inverter For Australia & New Zealand

Households with a permitted load exceeding 5 kW, classified as high-load domestic consumers, require larger single-phase hybrid energy storage solutions than those currently available on the market. However, these high-capacity hybrid systems demand advanced features in electrical configuration, safety protocols, remote monitoring, and more.

In this context, GoodWe, a leading Chinese PV inverter manufacturer and smart energy solution provider, recently launched the EHB series – a high-capacity single-phase hybrid inverter designed for Australian and New Zealand households with a connected load between 5 kW and 10 kW. This product features up to 4 MPPT channels and an output capacity range of 5 kW to 10 kW, supporting up to 20 kW of solar capacity, with 200% overcapacity, according to GoodWe. In the event of a grid failure, the inverter can switch to backup mode in less than 10 milliseconds, and it is compatible with both new installations and retrofit projects. It can also be integrated into a micro-grid system.

To ensure safety, GoodWe has included several protective features, such as a built-in AC bypass switch, type-II surge protection devices (SPD), and an arc-fault circuit interrupter (AFCI). Additionally, the inverter’s IP65-rated enclosure makes it suitable for outdoor installation. For seamless communication and remote monitoring, the product is equipped with the latest Wi-Fi + LAN 2.0 module.

Dean Williamson, GoodWe's Country Manager for Australia and New Zealand, commented, “We are thrilled to launch the EHB in the Australian and New Zealand markets. The EHB offers the ideal solution for larger, single-phase residential energy storage systems to meet consumer demand. It also adds to our ever-growing range of single and three-phase high-voltage hybrid inverters, with even more exciting new products set to launch in 2025 and beyond."
