Huawei LUNA2000-5KW-S0 Battery, LifePo4, 5.0 kWh

It is the basic configuration of the Huawei storage system for houses: a power and control module on top of which a battery module is placed, together forming a narrow assembly, like a column. During the day it gathers energy from the panels, in the evening it gives it back, and during a power outage it can keep the important circuits of the house running. The cells are of lithium iron phosphate, and the battery can be emptied completely, without a reserve staying locked.

The 5 kWh are a suitable starting point for a home with moderate consumption: they cover the fridge, the lighting, the router, the television and the electronics for the duration of the evening. The maximum output power is 2.5 kW, with a peak of 3.5 kW for 10 seconds, enough to start ordinary appliances; as a guideline, at maximum continuous power the battery empties in about two hours. The assembly is 600 mm high, the power module weighs 12 kg, and the battery one 50 kg. Being IP66, it can also be mounted outdoors, it works between -20 and +55 °C and stays below 29 dB, so it does not disturb even next to a bedroom. If the needs grow, the system can be expanded up to 15 kWh by adding modules on the same stack.

Composition: 1 x LUNA2000-5KW-C0 (power module) + 1 x LUNA2000-5-E0 (battery module), 5 kWh of usable energy, LiFePO4 cells, depth of discharge 100%. Maximum output power 2.5 kW, peak 3.5 kW for 10 s. System voltage 450 V rated (350-560 V) in single-phase and 600 V rated (600-980 V) in three-phase; connection on the DC side of the residential Huawei SUN2000 inverters, management through the FusionSolar platform. Power module 670 x 150 x 240 mm / 12 kg, battery module 670 x 150 x 360 mm / 50 kg, total height 600 mm. Protection rating IP66 (indoor and outdoor), operating temperature -20...+55 °C, noise below 29 dB; certifications CE, RCM, CEC.

Who it suits

Suitable for a home with a Huawei SUN2000 inverter and moderate consumption, which wants to start with a small reserve, easy to place including outdoors, and to expand it later up to 15 kWh.

Terms explained

• Depth of discharge 100%: All the energy in the battery can be used, without a technically reserved portion, as happens with many other systems.
• Peak power (10 s): The higher power the battery can deliver for a few seconds, enough to start a motor or a compressor.
• The DC side of the inverter: The battery is connected to the direct current input of the inverter, where the panels also come in, not to the house's 230 V circuit.

Technical specifications

Recommended applications

• Residential photovoltaic self-consumption with Huawei SUN2000 inverters
• Backup for essential circuits in a home
• Starting point for a system expandable up to 15 kWh
• Outdoor installations, where the IP66 protection rating is necessary

Technical details

Specifications confirmed from the manufacturer's datasheet

LUNA2000-5-S0 is the basic configuration of the Huawei Smart String Energy Storage system: a LUNA2000-5KW-C0 power module plus a LUNA2000-5-E0 battery module, resulting in 5 kWh of usable energy. The cells are lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4), and the smart string architecture allows the use of 100% of the depth of discharge, each module being managed individually.

The maximum output power is 2.5 kW, with a peak of 3.5 kW for 10 seconds, sufficient for starting ordinary household loads. In single-phase systems the rated voltage is 450 V (350-560 V), and in three-phase ones 600 V (600-980 V). The system is connected on the DC side of the Huawei SUN2000 inverters from the residential range and is managed from the FusionSolar platform.

The assembly has a height of 600 mm in this configuration; the power module measures 670 x 150 x 240 mm and weighs 12 kg, and the battery module 670 x 150 x 360 mm and 50 kg. The IP66 protection rating allows mounting both indoors and outdoors, the operating range is -20...+55 °C, and the noise in operation is below 29 dB. The system can be expanded later up to 15 kWh by adding LUNA2000-5-E0 modules on the same stack. Declared certifications: CE, RCM, CEC.
