3. Powerporter Overview
About Power Porter
This product is mainly combined with inverter, photovoltaic (PV) and related accessories to
build resideal energy storage system. The system is used to store the power generated
by PV to the connected baery and convert the direct current (DC) generated by the
connected baery into alternag current (AC) and provide it to the home grid.
(Note: The actual Resideal ESS may also include electrical equipment such as
distribun boxes and metering meters)
Powerporter is a lithium-ion baery that can store electrical energy and outputs DC
current. Powerporter only maintains electrical connecn with the inverter. The electrical
energy generated by the PV is converted by the inverter Dc to DC and stored in the
connected Powerporter. When Powerporter is needed, Powerporter’s electrical energy is
converted by the inverter DC to AC and transmied to the home grid to provide power for
household appliances.
The main funcn of the home energy storage system depends on the inverter.
Powerporter is a device that stores electrical energy.
Funons of home ESS:
34. Self-producn and sales of electrical energy
Use solar power and Power Porter to reduce the dependence on the grid and store
electricity during the day for night use.
35. Backup power
When the power grid is out of power, it can be seamlessly switched to Power Porter as

9
a backup power source to protect your home from power outages.
36. Sell electrical energy
The electrical energy generated by the photovoltaic array can be stored in a connected
Powerporter or sold to an energy supply company.
37. O-grid power supply
The system can be connected to diesel generators to ensure uninterrupted power
supply in areas without city power (such as islands and remote mountain areas).
(Note: The scheduling management of electrical energy in the system depends on the
inverter. Powerporter is commied to being coble with a variety of inverters. The
inverter you use does not necessarily contain all the above funcns)
