IN Brief:
- Solis will present a full-scenario energy storage portfolio at Intersolar Europe 2026 in Munich.
- The line-up includes FlexAIO, EverCore, FlexCore systems, hybrid inverters, grid-tied inverters, SolisCloud, and Solis AI.
- The launch reflects a wider shift from standalone inverters toward integrated storage, controls, monitoring, and support packages.
Solis is using Intersolar Europe 2026 to present a wider energy storage portfolio, extending its position from inverter manufacturer into integrated storage, monitoring, and control systems.
The company will showcase residential, commercial, industrial, and utility-scale products in Munich from 23 to 25 June. The portfolio includes all-in-one storage systems, hybrid and grid-tied inverters, energy management capability, monitoring through SolisCloud, and optimisation functions supported by Solis AI.
The residential line-up includes FlexAIO, a stackable high-voltage storage system designed for single-phase and three-phase installations. The system combines inverter technology, battery storage, smart energy management, and modular physical design. Capacity starts at 6kWh and can be expanded up to 324kWh, giving it a range that extends from larger homes into smaller commercial applications.
For commercial and industrial sites, Solis will present EverCore, a 261kWh all-in-one C&I storage platform that integrates battery storage, inverter technology, and EMS control. The company will also showcase FlexCore-ID and FlexCore-OD indoor and outdoor stackable systems, developed for higher-capacity applications that need thermal management, installation flexibility, and safety features.
The expansion reflects a wider change in the distributed energy market. Inverter suppliers are no longer judged only on conversion efficiency, product cost, and hardware reliability. Solar and storage installations now require integrated control, monitoring, grid-code compliance, energy management, communications, safety functions, and long-term service support.
Utility and commercial power conversion is moving in the same direction, with new PV and battery portfolios such as ABB’s Proteus range for PV and BESS applications placing greater emphasis on grid compliance, cooling, reliability, and system-level control. Solis’ storage portfolio brings similar integration pressures into residential and C&I segments.
Behind-the-meter storage is becoming more sophisticated as electricity use changes. A domestic battery may now need to interact with rooftop solar, time-of-use tariffs, EV charging, heat pumps, export limits, backup requirements, and local network constraints. In commercial buildings, storage can support peak shaving, self-consumption, demand management, resilience, and participation in flexibility schemes where metering and aggregation routes are available.
Software is therefore becoming a core part of the electrical system. SolisCloud and Solis AI are positioned around generation forecasting, consumption learning, and automated decisions on when electricity is stored, imported, exported, or used on site. Those functions become more valuable as tariffs become more dynamic and as local grid conditions affect the economics of distributed energy assets.
Monitoring has also moved from customer convenience to operational requirement. Storage systems need visibility over state of charge, temperature, alarms, inverter performance, faults, export behaviour, cycling, and degradation. For installers and service teams, remote data can reduce site visits and identify configuration problems earlier. For commercial operators, performance data determines whether the asset is meeting its financial case.
Connected inverters also bring procurement questions around cybersecurity and remote access. European scrutiny of high-risk inverter procurement and grid security reflects the growing dependence of electricity networks on software-managed power electronics. Supplier governance, firmware updates, data handling, communications security, and remote control policies now sit alongside electrical specification.
Integrated systems can simplify deployment, but they do not remove design responsibility. Installers still have to assess site loads, cable routes, metering, isolation, protection, fire safety, ventilation or thermal management, DNO requirements, commissioning, and customer handover. A packaged product can reduce configuration burden, but competent electrical assessment remains central to safe operation.
C&I applications require particular care because storage value depends heavily on site behaviour. A 261kWh system can perform very differently on a warehouse, factory, office, or retail site depending on load shape, operating hours, tariff exposure, solar generation, connection limits, and maintenance access. Correct sizing and control strategy will determine whether the asset reduces cost, supports resilience, or creates underused capacity.
Solis’ Intersolar portfolio shows how quickly distributed energy is becoming system-led. Inverters, batteries, cloud monitoring, AI optimisation, service support, and installation workflows are converging. Suppliers able to make those elements operate reliably together will be better placed as solar and storage move deeper into homes, businesses, and local networks.
