One installation from last week: an AIKO solar array with EcoFlow battery storage, commissioned on 5 November in the Randalstown area.
18 AIKO panels across two roof faces
The system has 18 AIKO Gen 3 465W panels: ten on the front roof and eight on the rear. That gives a combined panel rating of 8.37kWp. This is the array’s rated capacity, not a claim that it produces 8.37kW continuously or a measured annual yield.
EcoFlow inverter and storage
The panels are paired with an EcoFlow PowerOcean 2 6kW hybrid inverter and three battery modules. The system was commissioned with a 3.68kW export limit. That is a limit on power sent back to the grid, not the panel array’s size.
The electrical installation and PV commissioning checks were recorded on 5 November. We do not yet have a period of measured running data to report, so there is no savings figure attached to this job.
If you are weighing up a similar setup, our solar installation page covers the starting point, and our EcoFlow PowerOcean page explains the storage options. The right combination depends on the roof, electricity use and what you want the battery to do.
