SMA Sunny Boy Storage: Solar energy, simplified and optimised
Simply more independence
Sunny Boy Storage is a battery inverter designed for high-voltage batteries from all the major manufacturers. With a charging and discharging power of 2.5 kW, it's perfectly matched to your household's energy needs.
More sunshine for your home
Simple, economical solar energy storage
Sunny Boy Storage is the right solution for anyone who wants to gain independence from traditional electricity suppliers and rising energy costs by storing solar energy temporarily, simply and economically. This gives you maximum flexibility, now and in the future.
A well thought-out system
For economical, flexible system design
With Sunny Boy Storage, customers benefit from significantly reduced system and installation costs, as well as flexible application options. Thanks to AC coupling, the battery inverter can be expanded or installed at any time and anywhere, regardless of whether a photovoltaic system is already present or not. Sunny Boy Storage is a true all-rounder: the high-voltage technology used makes it both economical and lightweight. What's more, it comprises few components, with the main functions for intelligent storage use integrated. This makes Sunny Boy Storage the ideal choice for more solar energy in the power supply.
- Flexible
For new and existing installations: low installation costs, retrofitting and expansion possible at any time to suit individual requirements
Suitable for virtually all types of photovoltaic inverters: string inverters, microinverters or power optimizers
Can be combined with a wide range of energy sources: photovoltaic, wind, cogeneration
Freedom of choice when it comes to lithium-ion batteries, such as Tesla's Powerwall (more batteries to choose from soon)
- Efficient
Lowest-priced AC-coupled battery inverter on the market
97% efficiency for optimum use of temporarily stored energy
Maximum photovoltaic efficiency in compliance with all applicable feed-in regulations (EEG, KfW 275, Zero Export)
- Simple
Quick and easy installation by a single operator, thanks to its low weight of just 9 kg
Can do it all
The right solution for today's and tomorrow's needs
Sunny Boy Storage systems can be flexibly adapted to individual needs. Whether you're changing your family situation, acquiring an electric vehicle that needs to be charged every day, or deciding to install a swimming pool in your garden for the pleasure of bathing, Sunny Boy Storage lets you design or expand your storage system and photovoltaic installation according to your requirements. When it comes to power generation, the battery inverter also offers a wide range of possibilities, from photovoltaic systems to cogeneration plants and wind energy installations. Guaranteed power supply at all times.
Whatever the initial situation
New installation: photovoltaic system with storage system
Would you like to stop being dependent on traditional electricity suppliers and ever-increasing energy costs? Thanks to Sunny Boy Storage, this is perfectly feasible, and at low cost. With very few components, a storage system is easy to install. So you can store solar energy quickly and easily.
Upgrade: photovoltaic system with storage system
Do you continue to feed valuable energy into the grid via your photovoltaic system even after the feed-in remuneration has expired? If so, use this self-generated energy yourself with a storage solution. This reduces the amount of energy you draw from the public electricity grid, and makes you more independent of your electricity supplier. All you need are three additional components: the Sunny Boy Storage, the battery and the Energy Meter turn your existing photovoltaic system into a complete storage system*.
Expand: adapt an existing photovoltaic energy storage system to growing needs
Would you like to expand your existing system to supply additional loads with solar energy? Sunny Boy Storage makes it possible! You can extend the system at any time, and adjust the photovoltaic system to your individual needs at any time, independently of the storage system*.
* For photovoltaic inverters without Speedwire/Webconnect, it makes sense to integrate Sunny Home Manager 2.0 into the system as well.
