I'm looking to build a battery storage system, I'm fine with all aspects of the battery side of things, the inverter however is a different story.
My aim is to have 48kWh of storage and an 8kW inverter, what I'm hoping to achieve is a situation where the inverter provides my house power until the battery is depleted and/or off peak power time starts. If the demand exceeds the inverter capability, iwould like either, the inverter to supply its maximum output and additional power drawn from the grid or the inverter to switch over to grid operation i.e. all of the power coming from grid while the demand is exceeding it's capability. During the off peak time, i'd like the inverter to charge the battery although I'm happy to have a separate battery charger.
Every company Ive contacted seems to throw a spanner in the works and say it cant be done. My thinking is that if it cant be done with a battery input to an inverter, surely it can be done if I feed the battery into the solar input of the inverter i.e. 48v@320ah.
Am I being unrealistic here with want I'm trying to achieve?
