What the FOX ESS H1-4.6-E1-G2 does
A hybrid inverter runs both the solar array and a home battery: it supplies the home from the panels first, stores the surplus and draws on the battery when the sun goes down. The FOX ESS H1-4.6-E1-G2 range spans 4.6 kW to 5 kW of AC output, suiting arrays of about 4.6–6 kWp at the small end and 5–6.5 kWp at the large end, as installers commonly size the panels up to 30% above the inverter's rating.
In Germany, arrays of the same size produce about 4,140 to 4,500 kWh a year, assuming a conservative 900 kWh per kWp. For the smallest model, that is worth €319 a year fed into the grid at 7.70 ct per kWh, and up to €1,532 used at home instead of buying power at 37.0 ct.
