Draft figures. Freight, travel, special mounting and long cable runs are quoted separately. Use the solar adviser on the home page to see estimated load coverage for your use.

Battery backup estimator

Choose the essentials you want during an outage. Appliance values are illustrative — edit them to match yours.

1.44 kWh/day

0.29 kWh/day

0.88 kWh/day

About 2.9 days

Average load 0.11 kW from 7.63 kWh available (usable battery × 100% charge × 90% after reserve × 92% inverter efficiency).

⚠ Motor starting surge (pumps, fridges, air conditioners) needs assessment — inverter surge rating not confirmed.

Assumes no solar recharging during the outage. Usable battery is taken as 90% of the listed size until Penime confirms it. Actual runtime varies, and backup needs compatible equipment and installation.

Energy-saving ideas for this list

  • Keep the household fridge efficient. Good door seals, space for air around the back, and not opening it often help the compressor cycle less. Savings depend on the unit, so no figure is shown.
  • Shift flexible loads into daylight. Running pumps or laundry while the sun is up lets solar supply them directly instead of the battery or grid. This changes when you use power, not how much — so it is not added to solar savings.

These are separate from solar savings and are not added to them.

About these prices

Package prices and standard installation fees are shown separately. Standard installation applies within Tarawa under normal conditions. Travel, difficult access, long cable runs or special mounting may need a separate quote. Equipment specifications, prices, installation inclusions and warranty wording must be confirmed by Penime before launch. A site visit may change the final proposal.
