GoodWe GW20K-ET Hybrid Inverter 20 kW Three-Phase
The GoodWe GW20K-ET is the 20 kW three-phase hybrid inverter of the ET 15-30 kW series, sized for large residential systems, apartment buildings and small businesses that want to pair photovoltaics with high-voltage storage (battery range 200-800 V, 500 V nominal). It features 2 MPPTs with 2 strings each, 30 A per tracker, a maximum PV voltage of 1,000 V and an MPPT range of 200-850 V, for a photovoltaic array of up to 30,000 W.
On the storage side it handles 50 A in charge and discharge, with one independent battery input and charge/discharge power of up to 20,000 W. During a grid outage the three-phase back-up output delivers 20,000 VA (24,000 VA for 60 s, 32,000 VA for 3 s), with a temporary overload that helps start motors and pumps. Maximum efficiency is 98.0% (97.5% European), cooling is by smart fans with noise < 45 dB, the protection rating is IP66 and communications include Wi-Fi, LAN, Bluetooth to the portal, RS485 to the meter and RS485/CAN to the BMS.
