Download Datasheet


The GivEnergy Hybrid Inverter 5.0 (Gen 2) is a battery inverter and solar inverter in one unit. It connects directly to solar panels to deliver usable electricity to the property and stores surplus generation in a battery for later use. The inverter is designed to minimise export by charging the battery during solar hours, and to minimise import by discharging to meet demand in the property.

Key Features

  • All-in-one hybrid inverter: Combines battery and solar inverter functions.
  • Optimises self-consumption: Reduces both export and import.
  • Dual MPPT design: Supports flexible string configurations.
  • Fast transfer for backup: Approx. 10ms automatic switching.
  • Flexible tariff compatibility: Charge from the grid off-peak and discharge at peak times.
  • Remote firmware and monitoring: Via the GivEnergy Monitoring App and Portal.
  • 12-year warranty: With support from the UK GivEnergy team.
  • IP65 protection: Suitable for indoor or outdoor mounting.
