Description
The Fortress Power Envy 8 is an easy to install, all-in-one 8,000 watt (8kW), 120V - 240Vac and 97.5% efficiency, inverter for grid-tied or stand-alone solar power generation for homes or backup power systems. The single unit operates as a power inverter, battery charger, and system monitor that will minimize utility grid dependence and optimize the balance between battery storage and renewable energy sources. The system can be connected to up to 13,000 watts of solar panels making this powerful inverter an ideal choice for hybrid or off-grid settings. The Envy supports backup, off-grid, zero export, time-of-use, peak shaving, net metering, smart load, and microgrid applications. UL certified and backed by a 10 year product warranty.
