More product details

On a 5 kW inverter, running a 1.8 kW heat pump compressor alongside domestic baseline loads leaves very little surplus solar power to recharge batteries. The GW6.5K-ET delivers 7,200 VA maximum apparent power, giving all-electric homes the exact throughput needed.

  • Delivers 10.5 A continuous AC output current per phase to handle simultaneous kitchen and compressor loads.
  • 150% DC oversizing channels surplus solar directly into battery storage at up to 25 A continuous DC rate.
  • Symmetrical three-phase power export eliminates phase-imbalance penalties under European grid standards.

Independent East/West string optimization with IP66 protection.

Independent East/West string optimization with IP66 protection.

Dual independent MPPT trackers with low 180 V start-up voltage capture solar generation across separate morning and afternoon roof pitches without current clipping. Dual 12.5 A MPPT channels (15.2 A Isc) optimize split-pitch arrays down to 180 V starting threshold. 98.0% peak conversion efficiency (97.2% European efficiency) minimizes internal thermal heat generation. IP66 cast-aluminum casing allows clean indoor utility mounting or outdoor sheltered installation (-35 to +60 °C).

Takes 9700 W PV across two independent MPPTs

Two separate trackers handle split east-west arrays up to 9700 W DC. Balanced three-phase output provides 6500 W continuous power.

Pairs 180 to 600 V battery storage

High-voltage lithium packs connect directly on the DC bus. Peak efficiency of 98.00 percent minimizes daily cycling losses.

Sits in a compact IP66 chassis

The 24 kg die-cast aluminum enclosure measures 415 x 516 x 180 mm. Weatherproofing supports operation from minus 35 to plus 60 C.

Technical data

The optimal residential capacity stepping for modern electrified single-family properties.

9.7 kWp solar absorption sized for all-electric heat pump homes.

Stepping above standard 5 kW units, the GW6.5K-ET provides the crucial electrical headroom needed for households transitioning to heat pump climate control. It absorbs up to 9,700 W of rooftop generation across dual MPPTs, ensuring your home runs heating cycles and reaches 100% battery state-of-charge before sunset, even during overcast shoulder seasons.

Project fit

Where this model fits.

Scenarios that show which projects the GoodWe GW6.5K-ET belongs in, what to verify before quoting, and when another model is the better pick.

01
Project scenario

Electrified Single-Family Homes with Modulating Heat Pumps (4–6 kW Thermal)

Electrified Single-Family Homes with Modulating Heat Pumps (4–6 kW Thermal)

Modern all-electric homes equipped with an inverter-driven air-to-water heat pump (approx. 1.2–2.0 kW electrical draw) and a 7–9.5 kWp solar array.

A 5 kW inverter leaves only ~2.7 kW of DC power for battery charging while the heat pump runs. On partly cloudy autumn or spring days, a 10 kWh battery will not reach full charge. The GW6.5K-ET provides 9,700 W DC intake and 7.2 kVA maximum apparent power, ensuring ample solar power to heat the home and top off storage simultaneously.

  • BoundaryIf the property uses district heating or gas, has no heat pump planned, and roof capacity is under 7 kWp, step down to the GW5K-ET to save capital expenditure.

Product questions

In what specific scenario does the GW6.5K-ET make more sense than stepping down to the GW5K-ET?

When rooftop solar exceeds 7 kWp and the home operates a heat pump. On a 5 kW inverter, running a 1.8 kW heat pump compressor alongside domestic baseline loads (0.5 kW) leaves only ~2.7 kW of remaining DC throughput for battery charging during midday. On partly cloudy spring or autumn days, a 10 kWh battery bank will not reach 100% state of charge. The GW6.5K-ET provides 9,700 W PV intake and 7,200 VA maximum apparent power, providing the exact headroom needed to heat the home and fully charge storage before sunset.

What is the maximum AC current per phase on this model, and what breaker size is required?

10.5 A max output current; 16 A or 20 A 3-pole MCB. * Nominal Output Current: Approx. 9.5 A per phase at 400 V three-phase. * Maximum Output Current: 10.5 A per phase (7,200 VA apparent power limit). * Maximum Grid Input Current: 15.2 A per phase (allows simultaneous battery fast-charging and backup load pass-through). * Breaker Recommendation: A standard 3-pole 16 A or 20 A (Type B or C) miniature circuit breaker (MCB) on the main AC distribution board.

Can this model be paired with a larger 3-module or 4-module battery stack?

Yes, and higher stack voltages actually improve system efficiency. The GW6.5K-ET operates across a wide 180–600 V DC battery window. * Pairing it with a 3-module GoodWe Lynx Home F tower (9.83 kWh / 307.2 V) or a 4-module tower (13.10 kWh / 409.6 V) places the DC-DC converter in its peak efficiency curve. * Higher operating voltages reduce current stress and resistive heat dissipation during continuous 25 A charge and discharge cycles.

Does the backup port support automatic neutral-ground bonding during off-grid operation?

Consult local grid code; external contactor may be required for TT/TN-S systems. In standard on-grid mode, the neutral (N) is bonded at the main service panel. During off-grid backup operation, European electrical standards (such as in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland) may require a dedicated external contactor to maintain compliant neutral earthing depending on whether your backup sub-panel operates as a TN-S or TT system. Consult your installer regarding compliant off-grid earthing arrangements.

Is there any limitation on solar string sizing when connecting modern 500W+ panels?

Check short-circuit current (Isc ≤ 15.2 A). The GW6.5K-ET features a maximum input current of 12.5 A per MPPT with a maximum short-circuit current ($I_{\text{sc}}$) limit of 15.2 A. * Standard 400W–450W Panels ($I_{\text{mp}} \approx 10\text{. }11\text{ A}, I_{\text{sc}} \approx 11\text{. }12\text{ A}$): Fully compatible with zero current clipping. * Large-Format 500W+ Panels ($I_{\text{mp}} \approx 13\text{. }14\text{ A}, I_{\text{sc}} \approx 14\text{. }15\text{ A}$): Compatible, provided $I_{\text{sc}}$ stays under 15.2 A at STC. * Ultra-High-Current 600W+ Panels ($I_{\text{mp}} > 15\text{ A}$): Step up to the GW15K-ET (which features 30 A MPPT inputs).
