Delta, the power and thermal management solutions company, has made an MOU agreement with the American division of South Korean battery maker LG Energy Solutions for its residential energy storage systems (ESS).
The agreement covers 4GWh of US-made Li-ion battery cells being provided from 2025 to 2030, it said.
These battery cells are intended for integration into Delta’s All-in-One Box, its upcoming new ESS designed for US homes.
The company said the ESS will be able to store power from solar or the grid for day or night use.
It will feature 6 MPPTs and a 19.95kWh storage capacity, which it claims will allow for dependable electricity for US homes including during prolonged outages.
Delta said that the ESS will allow for flexibility to support off-grid use and peak load shifting.
Mike Wang, general manager, Delta’s PV inverter business unit, said: “We are committed to empowering homeowners to generate their own clean energy, store it for later use, and reduce their electricity bills with our all-in-one energy storage systems. This collaboration combines Delta’s prowess in high-efficiency power electronics and in system integration with LG Energy Solution’s U.S.-made battery technology to address the growing demand for integrated solar energy and storage in the United States.”
Hyung Kim, head of ESS battery division at LG Energy Solution, said: “We are excited to join forces with Delta Electronics to unlock the full potential of the U.S. residential hybrid inverter market. Our combined strengths will deliver U.S.-made, cost-competitive, highly efficient solar and storage solutions that empower homeowners and support critical national sustainability goals.”
