Solar system for a villa with overnight backup power

A solar system sized for a villa that carries the whole household — ACs, freezer, pump and all — through a full night's power cut. Built around the Felicity Solar FLA48500 51.2V 25kWh LiFePO4 Battery, with 19 × Felicity Solar GK-1-72HTBD-580M 580W Solar Panel — order the rest online from the Felicity Solar catalogue.

If 4 hours are enough instead of 8, the storage needed falls to 8.3 kWh — 16.1 kWh installed across 1 battery unit(s), 6.4 kWh less. The array stays at 10.9 kWp. Solar system for a villa with evening backup power

What the Felicity records say about this kit

The villa profile sized here — 4 × air conditioner, fridge, freezer, 2 × lights & Wi-Fi, 2 × TV, washing machine, water pump and kitchen (microwave & kettle) — reaches 11.7 kW in the instant its motors start and takes about 49.5 kWh across a day. On one phase that is a 12 kW inverter. Felicity's single-phase hybrids in this catalogue cover 3–8 kW (T-REX-3KLP1G01 to IVGM8KLP2G1), so no hybrid model is named for this kit. At this size the Felicity listings are the 12 kW single-phase off-grid IVAM12048P1G1 and the 12 kW three-phase hybrid IVGM12KLP3G1.

The array is Felicity's own panel, the GK-1-72HTBD-580M, rated 580 W with 51.47 V open-circuit and 42.59 V at maximum power in its record. 19 of them make 10.9 kWp at 5.7 peak sun hours a day and take roughly 49 m² of roof, where they add about 589 kg (31 kg a panel).

8 hours of this profile without mains come to about 16.5 kWh, and that is what the battery bank is sized against. One FLA48500 is 25 kWh by name, counted here as 22.5 kWh usable. The battery's record states a cycle life of more than 6,000 cycles and up to 15 units in parallel. One unit is 218 kg, which decides the vehicle you bring to our store in Dubai or Riyadh.

Felicity lines this kit does not include

A kit here is an inverter, a lithium battery bank and an array. The Felicity range on this site also holds MPPT solar charge controllers, integrated solar street lights, lithium batteries at lower voltages and gel batteries. Each has its own page and its own price, and none is added to the kit.
