LG Chem RESU: Home Battery Backup
The Residential Energy Storage Unit by LG Chem has been one of the biggest successes in on-grid home energy storage.
Self Consumption
Using our state-of-the-art battery backup system, LG Chem provides most optimal energy solution with a long lifespan and a top-notch quality.
Protect your family and investments from sudden blackouts, reduce monthly electric bills, and achieve a more sustainable lifestyle with this versatile lithium-ion battery
Emergency Backup Power
Unlike a grid-tied solar system which automatically shuts off when utility power goes out, the RESU can store surplus energy generated from rooftop solar panels for use when needed.
When the sun has set, energy demand is high, or there is a black-out, you can use the energy stored in your battery to meet your energy needs at no extra cost.
Compact & Efficient Size
The compact and lightweight nature of the RESU is world-class. It is designed to allow easy wall-mounted or floor-standing installation for both indoor and outdoor applications. Combine multiple battery backs to increase the amount of power you are able to store.
StorEdge Energy Solution
StorEdge™ home energy backup battery solution automatically provides backup power in case of grid interruption and allows homeowners to maximize self-consumption to achieve higher energy independence.
More Energy
StorEdge’s direct current (DC) connected solution allows for high system storage efficiency for more power harvesting. When charging, the solar power is stored directly into the battery.
Unlike the Tesla Powerwall, no additional conversion from alternating current (AC) to DC and back to AC is needed. This gives you an overall more efficient solar electric plus battery backup system than the Powerwall.
StorEdge’s solar battery backup supports higher power output with the new LG Residential Energy Storage Unit (RESU).
Earthquake Insurance Policy: Solar + Batteries
An essential part of a resilience plan is planning for emergency backup power. When there is a power outage energy storage provides the peace of mind. In event of a natural disaster, a combination of solar energy and battery is used to power important devices (the refrigerator, TV, lights and AC outlets).
Greater Control of Your Home’s Energy
Reduce your carbon footprint by storing excess solar energy in your battery during the day and using it when you need it. Now monitor the battery status, PV production, and self-consumption data with the StorEdge online monitoring app and web portal.
