GoodWe GW15K-ET-20 Hybrid Inverter 15kW Three-Phase
The GoodWe GW15K-ET-20 is the 15kW three-phase hybrid inverter of the ET G2 series, designed for residential and small-business photovoltaic systems with high-voltage storage (battery range 150-720V, 500V nominal). It manages 3 independent MPPTs with 16A per tracker, a maximum PV voltage of 1,000V and an MPPT range of 120-850V, and accepts up to 24,000W of installed photovoltaic power.
On the storage side it reaches 40A continuous in charge and discharge, with 24,000W of charging power and 16,500W of discharging power. The three-phase back-up function delivers 15,000VA (up to 18,000VA peak) and starts automatically in the event of a grid outage. Maximum efficiency is 98.2% (97.5% European), the protection rating is IP66 with natural convection cooling (no fans) and communications include Wi-Fi, LAN, Bluetooth, RS485 and CAN as standard. Type II surge arresters are built in on both the DC and the AC side; the AFCI for electric arc detection is available on the dedicated versions.
