What it is
The Sunpura U8000 AC is the largest single unit in the range: 8 kWh of storage in one integrated, plug-and-play enclosure. Its differentiator is the battery chemistry, SolidCore semi-solid cells, an EV-grade technology chosen for higher safety, longer life and better tolerance of the environment. It is AC-coupled, so it adds to a home that already has solar without rewiring the array.
High capacity, one unit
Where the stackable models build up in modules, the U8000 AC delivers 8 kWh in a single integrated cabinet with 3,680 W of continuous output and a 5,520 VA surge. It suits a home that wants substantial overnight storage and strong backup, added onto existing solar.
Why the U-series is different
- SolidCore semi-solid chemistry: EV-grade cells, engineered for safety and longevity.
- 8 kWh in one integrated unit, plug-and-play.
- AC-coupled retrofit: works alongside an existing solar/inverter system.
- Dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, managed in the Sunpura HOME app.
Certification
European and international certification (CE/EMC, RED, LVD, CB, RoHS, REACH, UN38.3, IP65, WEEE, VDE 4105, EN 50549 and more). South African NRCS and NRS 097-2-1 compliance is being completed as part of Sunpura’s market entry; we make no South African certification or grid feed-in claims until it is in place.
