Eleven Energy North Sea EL3600 3.6kW Hybrid Inverter – Single Phase is a compact 3.6kW hybrid inverter designed to work with Eleven Volta sodium-ion batteries and solar PV. It combines PV inversion and battery management in one unit, with simple app-based commissioning and powerful monitoring to help optimise energy use across the whole property.

Key Features

• 3.6kW single-phase hybrid inverter – ideal for typical UK domestic installations, supporting PV generation and battery storage from one compact unit.
• Designed for Eleven Volta sodium-ion batteries – seamless integration with Eleven’s Volta 4.5kWh sodium-ion battery modules for a complete storage solution.
• Simple app-based setup – inverters are extremely easy to commission via the Eleven Energy app, with guided setup and clear system status.
• Advanced monitoring and control – the app allows detailed monitoring, mode selection and scheduling so you can optimise self-consumption and off-peak charging.
• Flexible operating modes – supports solar self-consumption, time-of-use shifting, backup modes (where supported) and export limiting as required.
• High efficiency – modern transformerless design for high conversion efficiency and low self-consumption.

Electrical Characteristics

• Rated AC output: 3.6kW, single phase, 230V, 50Hz.
• PV input: configured for one or more DC strings from the PV array, with MPPT tracking to maximise energy harvest.
• Battery interface: compatible DC battery port designed for Eleven Volta sodium-ion packs, handling charge and discharge control.
• Operating modes: grid-tied with export, self-consumption first, battery-priority modes and time-based charging/discharging according to tariff settings.
• Protection: built-in protections including over/under-voltage, over-current, short-circuit and anti-islanding for grid safety.

Communication & Smart Functions

• Integrated communications – supports communication between the inverter, batteries and monitoring platform via wired and/or wireless interfaces.
• Eleven Energy app – provides live system data (PV power, battery state of charge, grid import/export and consumption) plus control of operating modes.
• Remote configuration – installers and users can adjust key parameters (e.g. charge windows, export limits) from the app without needing front-panel navigation.

Installation & Design

• Single-phase, wall-mount design – compact, lightweight unit suitable for mounting in utility rooms, garages or plant areas.
• Hybrid architecture – reduces the need for separate PV and battery inverters, simplifying wiring and saving space.
• System integration – designed to work as part of a complete Eleven Energy system with Volta sodium batteries and IP65 outdoor enclosures where external installation is required.

Typical Applications

• Domestic solar PV systems up to 3.6kW AC output with integrated battery storage.
• Homeowners wanting to maximise self-consumption of PV, reduce grid imports and make the most of time-of-use tariffs.
• Installations using Eleven Volta sodium-ion batteries where simple commissioning and rich app-based control are key requirements.
