GoodWe 5kW SBP-US Series Split Phase AC-coupled Retrofit Inverter GW5000-SBP-US20
The GoodWe GW5000-SBP-US20 SBP-US Series is a 5kW split-phase, high-voltage AC-coupled retrofit inverter designed for residential battery storage, backup power, and microgrid applications in North America.
Its AC-coupled architecture makes it especially suitable for adding energy storage to an existing PV system without replacing the existing solar inverter.
The SBP-US platform is designed for off-grid operation, unbalanced load output, and microgrid functionality during blackouts. Its built-in autotransformer eliminates the need for an external autotransformer, while generator compatibility and optional EV charging add flexibility for advanced residential energy systems.
