Sigenergy SigenStor

Solar, storage and backup brought together in one adaptable system.

SigenStor combines an energy controller, modular battery storage and energy management in one platform, with optional backup and EV-charging components. Laurence works out which parts are genuinely useful for your home.

Care for your home

Integrated where it helps. Sized for the way you live.

The useful part is not the number of features on a brochure. It is choosing the right battery capacity, output, backup circuits and network configuration for the property. Laurence assesses those details himself and explains the trade-offs clearly.

A useful first conversation

You do not need to diagnose it first.

These details help Laurence understand the job, ask the right questions and plan the most useful next step.

  3. 03Future EV, generator or expansion plans

How Borda can help

Configure the platform around the home.

01

One coordinated platform

Solar inverter, battery conversion, storage modules and energy management selected as one configuration.

02

Modular storage

Initial capacity and possible later expansion considered against the controller, phases, space and compatible battery generation.

03

Backup with a purpose

Gateway, output and essential circuits designed around the loads that genuinely matter during an outage.

04

Monitoring and handover

The mySigen app, operating settings and main energy flows explained when Laurence commissions the system.

Safety first

Confirm the exact configuration

Backup, EV charging and expansion depend on the components included. The quote should clearly identify every module and its role.

Start with what you want the system to do.

Show Laurence a recent bill and explain what you want the system to achieve. He will assess the property and explain the sensible SigenStor options.

Useful to know

Understand what is included—and what requires design.

Clear practical information, supported by trusted Australian guidance where useful.

01

All-in-one does not mean all-inclusive

SigenStor can integrate several energy functions, but blackout backup and DC EV charging require compatible additional components and the right electrical design. The quote should make every included module clear.

02

Modular still needs forward planning

A battery stack can grow within product limits, but later expansion depends on compatible models, controller and inverter capacity, phases, clearances and current manufacturer rules. Likely future loads are worth discussing now.

03

Backup is a circuit plan

Runtime and supported appliances depend on stored energy, available solar and simultaneous demand. Laurence identifies sensible backup loads instead of making a vague whole-home promise.

Direct with your electrician

The person designing the configuration is the electrician you speak with.

SigenStor has many possible combinations. Laurence checks the existing solar, switchboard, phase supply, household loads, equipment position and SA Power Networks requirements before recommending one. You can ask why each component has been proposed and get a direct answer.

  • You are heard.Talk through the job directly with Laurence.
  • Your options are clear.Understand what matters now, what can wait and why.
  • Your home is respected.The work is tested, explained and left tidy.

Straightforward from the start.

01

Explain the job once

Share what is happening, where you are and what a good result looks like.

02

Understand the recommendation

Laurence assesses the property, explains the options and confirms a clear scope.

03

Know what was completed

The agreed work is tested, left tidy and handed over with practical guidance.

Common questions

Before choosing a SigenStor configuration.

Helpful starting points. The right answer still depends on the property and the existing electrical setup.

Is SigenStor suitable for existing solar?

Sometimes. The practical approach depends on the existing inverter, system age, phase supply, export approval and whether existing equipment can be coordinated under site-wide control. Laurence inspects it before recommending retention or replacement.

Will it run my whole home in a blackout?

Not automatically. Backup requires a compatible Energy Gateway and a deliberate circuit design. Output, battery capacity and large appliances determine whether whole-home or selected-load backup is sensible.

Can I add more battery capacity later?

The platform is modular, but expansion remains subject to compatible battery generations, stack limits, inverter capacity, clearances and current manufacturer requirements.

Does the system need internet access?

Internet supports monitoring, firmware updates and South Australian Flexible Export communication. The connection method and manufacturer warranty conditions should be confirmed during the site assessment.

Was there a SigenStor product recall?

The ACCC recalled specific single-phase Energy Controllers sold with a particular quick-connect plug in 2025. For new work, Laurence can confirm the proposed controller uses the updated approved connection design; existing owners can ask for help identifying their unit.

Is a battery guaranteed to pay for itself?

No. Purchase price, household load profile, tariffs, solar generation and operating settings all affect the result. A recommendation should use the home’s actual data and recognise backup as a separate priority.

Talk through the practical next step.

The right answer depends on the property and what is already installed.
