The energy market is changing
Daytime storage will become more important from 2027 onwards.
After the net metering scheme ends, electricity you draw from the grid later will no longer be offset against your earlier feed-in. If you feed in a lot during the day and buy electricity again in the evening, your energy bill can increase more quickly as a result.
The ZinVolt Core stores available solar power for when your home needs that energy.
Modular design
One Core. Four storage capacities.
The Core starts with 4 kWh storage. With ZinVolt Link modules, the same tower can be expanded in steps to 8, 12, or 16 kWh. This allows you to start compactly and expand later.

Smart modeSelf-consumption
Included for free
The ZinVolt P1-dongle PRO measures what's happening in your home.
The P1-dongle PRO reads the smart meter. This tells ZinVolt Core how much energy the home uses, exports or draws from the grid, helping the system respond more intelligently to current energy use.

Professionally installed
Professionally installed. Ready to use immediately.
Our installers check the technical situation in advance, install the ZinVolt Core, and safely connect the system. Then we configure the Core, link the app, and deliver everything fully operational.
Initial check
We check the connection, meter cupboard, and desired location.
Placing the Core
We install the battery in a stable, accessible location with sufficient clearance.
Secure connection
We connect the Core professionally via an isolator switch and check its operation.
Setup and delivery
We connect the P1 dongle PRO and app, test the system, and clearly explain how it works.

“Great system that ensures less power consumption at night and an emergency power option in case of outage. I am very satisfied. The contact with ZinVolt is truly perfect.”
"With my dynamic energy contract, I can now charge cheaply at night. During the day, I use that electricity myself. The app shows exactly what I'm consuming, a smart system!"
“First I gained some experience with three batteries. Now I've added two more so I can get through the evening and night exactly.”

Frequently asked questions
Clear answers to the most important questions.
The exact configuration varies per home. With personal advice, you quickly gain clarity on capacity, connection, and installation.
What capacity suits my home?
The ZinVolt Core starts at 4 kWh and can be expanded to 8, 12, or 16 kWh with ZinVolt Link modules. The best choice depends on your annual consumption, solar generation, grid feedback, and desired usage time.
How is the ZinVolt Core installed?
Our installers will check the meter cupboard and the desired location, install the Core and professionally connect the system. Afterwards, we will link the P1 dongle PRO and ZinVolt app, test the operation and deliver the system with clear explanations.
Why can't I order the ZinVolt Core directly online?
In addition to the professionally installed ZinVolt Core, ZinVolt also sells the plug-and-play ZinVolt Base online. The Core is a different system: it is professionally installed and must be properly integrated with your home, energy consumption, solar panels, connection, meter cupboard, and available space. That's why ZinVolt or an installation partner will consult with you in advance to determine the appropriate storage capacity and technical situation. After that, you will receive a proposal for the correct Core configuration and installation.
Is the Core connected via an isolator switch?
Yes. With the standard installation, we safely connect the ZinVolt Core via an isolator switch. We check in advance whether the connection and meter cupboard are suitable.
Can the ZinVolt Core also be connected via a normal wall socket?
Yes. The ZinVolt Core can be connected via a normal wall socket and comes with a plug. When connected this way, the discharge capacity is limited to a maximum of 800 W if the Core is connected to a circuit that also has other consumers.
Can I expand the storage capacity later?
Yes. Each ZinVolt Link adds 4 kWh of extra storage. One tower can grow from 4 kWh to a maximum of 16 kWh.
Is the P1 dongle PRO included?
Yes. The ZinVolt P1-dongle PRO is included free. The P1-dongle PRO reads your smart meter so that the Core has insight into consumption, grid export and grid import.
What happens during a power outage?
The Core has a backup power outlet with a 10-millisecond transfer time. Compatible devices can be connected directly to it. The Core does not automatically take over the entire home's power supply.
Can the ZinVolt Core be placed outside?
The ZinVolt Core can technically be placed outside under a canopy thanks to its IP65 protection rating. For the best performance and the most stable operation possible, we recommend placing the Core in a dry room with a stable temperature. The final location must always be technically assessed for substrate, ventilation, accessibility, and local conditions.
What does a standard installation include?
A standard installation includes a technical inspection, placement, connection via an isolator switch, standard connection work, and the pairing of the P1-dongle PRO and app. We test the system and clearly explain its operation. Any additional work will always be discussed in advance.
