16kWh High-Capacity Energy Storage

With 16kWh rated capacity and approximately 15.3kWh usable energy, the Growatt HOPE 16.0LM-A1 provides significantly greater storage than smaller residential batteries.

This makes it particularly suitable for properties with higher electricity consumption, longer required backup periods or larger solar PV installations.

When incorporated into a properly designed system, stored energy can be used during power outages, at night or whenever solar generation is insufficient to meet the connected load.

95% Depth of Discharge

The HOPE 16.0LM-A1 supports a Depth of Discharge of up to 95%, allowing a large proportion of its stored energy to be utilized.

Combined with its 15.3kWh usable capacity, this provides greater practical energy availability while maintaining operation within the battery manufacturer’s specified limits.

LiFePO4 Battery Technology

The battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) chemistry, a technology widely used for stationary solar energy storage because of its excellent thermal stability, durability and long cycle life.

The manufacturer specifies approximately 6,000 cycles at 0.5C, 80% DoD and 25°C, making it suitable for regular charge and discharge applications.

High Charge & Discharge Performance

The battery supports a maximum charging current of approximately 150A and maximum discharge current of approximately 200A, subject to the inverter, BMS and system configuration.

This allows the battery to support systems with relatively high instantaneous energy requirements while also accepting substantial charging power from a correctly sized solar/inverter system.

Expandable Energy Storage

For projects requiring significantly more than 16kWh of storage, the HOPE 16.0LM-A1 supports up to 48 units connected in parallel.

This modular architecture allows an energy-storage system to be expanded as energy requirements increase, subject to compatible inverter capacity, BMS configuration and professional system design.

CAN & RS485 Communication

Integrated CAN and RS485 communication interfaces allow the battery management system to exchange operating information with compatible inverters.

This communication assists with coordinated charging and discharging, battery status monitoring and system protection.
