Renewable energy enthusiasts and industry professionals have reason to celebrate as Fronius USA announces that the Fronius GEN24 has officially received its Energy Storage System (ESS) listing from the California Energy Commission (CEC). This significant approval certifies that the Fronius GEN24, when paired with the BYD-HVM battery solution, meets California's stringent energy standards and can now be installed across the state.
What Does This Mean for California's Energy Market?
California is known for its ambitious renewable energy goals and strict certification processes. Achieving the CEC ESS listing underscores the Fronius GEN24's exceptional quality, efficiency, and reliability—making it a top choice for homeowners and businesses looking to integrate solar power with energy storage.
According to Richard Baldinger, Director of Sales & Marketing for Fronius USA's Solar Energy division, "With the CEC ESS official listing, the Fronius GEN24 has been recognized as an approved top choice for energy storage in California, delivering exceptional quality, efficiency, and reliability for the state's evolving energy market."
Technical Specifications
The CEC-approved Fronius GEN24 lineup includes both the GEN24 and GEN24 Plus models, with power outputs ranging from:
3.8kW
5.0kW
6.0kW
7.7kW
10.0kW
These models are now certified to work with BYD's energy storage capacities, which include options of:
11.0kWh
13.8kWh
16.6kWh
19.3kWh
This versatile combination offers flexibility and scalability for various residential and small commercial energy storage needs.
Why the CEC Listing Matters
The CEC ESS listing is an essential certification for renewable energy products in California. To qualify, systems must meet two critical standards:
UL 1741 – Ensuring the inverter meets grid-tied performance and safety standards.
UL 9540 – Certifying the full energy storage system for safety and efficiency.
By earning this certification, the Fronius GEN24 with BYD-HVM batteries is now authorized for installation not only in California but also in other utility markets that recognize the CEC's standards. This approval highlights the system's durability, performance, and commitment to promoting renewable energy.
