Who will install my battery system?
Eguana will refer you to a trained, licensed electrician to facilitate your install. The electrician will do an evaluation of your preferred installation location and your electrical panel before quoting the job.
Does the system work with my existing solar panels?
Yes. The Eguana battery system can charge from the grid and/or from a solar photovoltaic system.
If you are planning to have a solar system installed with your battery, Eguana will gladly put you in touch with one of our solar installation partners.
What are the dimensions of the system and where can it be installed?
The battery system measures in at 44" x 41" and is wallmounted. Eguana recommends installing your Evolve LFP near an electrical panel in your basement or garage. For further information about the product, please download the datasheet or the owner's manual.
How do I claim the ITC credit?

How many appliances can I power during an outage?
While your fully charged 5kW / 14kWh system can power several of your home's essential loads, it is not a whole-home backup solution. Eguana customers typically prioritize appliances like fridges and furnaces as well as network and personal entertainment devices such as internet modems, laptops, and TVs.
Your installer will work with you directly to select the devices to which you can direct power and provide a more accurate estimate based on your usage patterns.
What battery chemistry are the Eguana batteries?
Eguana uses Lithium-Iron-Phosphate chemistry for its batteries. LFP batteries are known for their safety, boasting superior thermal stability, making them resistant to thermal runaway even under extreme conditions.
Why is Eguana selling the Evolve LFP at such an attractive price? Am I also eligible for a bill credit?
For their participation and for allowing access to their system by PGE to support local grid stability, a limited number of PGE customers will receive the state-of-the-art battery system at the advertised rate (“?rst come – ?rst served”). The event-based bill credits of $1.70/kWh will get transferred directly to Eguana. For further information, refer to the Homeowner Agreement.
