Feed-in support ends. The solar power remains.
Battery storage keeps more solar power available for your business or allows it to be marketed strategically.
Route 2 on the main storage page shows whether the existing PV inverter should remain in service or be replaced with a hybrid inverter.

What agricultural battery storage can do for your business
Increase self-consumption
Use solar power in the evening, at night or seasonally on the farm.
Reduce peak demand
Reduce high load peaks and the associated costs.
Secure backup power
Prioritise milking, cooling, ventilation, feeding systems or IT.
Market electricity
Sell electricity at attractive exchange-based times with a suitable marketing model.
Three system ranges
From a modular Victron system to SolaX TRENE large-scale storage
PV capacity is stated in kWp, inverter power in kW and battery capacity in kWh. These are indicative ranges; the exact design depends on the load profile, PV generation, grid connection and objective.
Large hybrid inverter
from approx. 20 kWp · approx. 20 kW hybrid power
For larger agricultural PV systems, a hybrid inverter combines generation and battery storage in one system. The typical entry point is at least around 20 kWh of storage capacity.
PV from approx. 20 kWp · hybrid approx. 20 kW · storage from approx. 20 kWh
Large-scale storage
SolaX TRENE · 100 kW / 215 kWh
The compact cabinet system combines 100 kW of power with 215 kWh of storage capacity. It is suitable for large PV surpluses, high load peaks and exchange-based electricity marketing.
100 kW power · 215 kWh storage capacity
Important: The stated sizes are not fixed package limits. Victron systems are modular; hybrid and large-scale storage systems are designed around your load profile and grid connection.

What determines agricultural battery storage
Consumption profile
Annual consumption and the load profile show when energy is needed and at what power.
Capacity & power
Storage capacity determines the usable amount of energy; power determines which loads can be supplied at the same time.
Backup-power requirements
Critical loads are defined and prioritised in the design.
Grid connection & marketing
Main fuse, transformer, tariff and exchange strategy must be considered together.
The route to the solutionSend operating data
Three steps to agricultural battery storage
01
Review the data
PV system, annual consumption, load profile, inverter and grid connection.
02
Define the objective
Self-consumption, peak shaving, backup power or marketing.
03
Design the storage system
Determine the right system, power and capacity for your business.
Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
How large should agricultural battery storage be?
Capacity and power are determined by the load profile, PV generation, grid connection and your objective. Annual consumption alone is not sufficient.
Is backup power possible?
Yes. Critical loads are defined and the required power is planned accordingly.
Can electricity be marketed at exchange-based prices?
Depending on the system, tariff and marketing model, the battery can use low-price periods and make electricity available at attractive exchange-based times.
Which data is required for planning?
Annual consumption, load profile, PV capacity, inverter, existing storage, grid connection and critical backup loads.
Who carries out installation and electrical connection?
Advice, product selection and planning support are provided online. Installation, electrical connection and commissioning are carried out by a qualified local electrical contractor.
