Solar storage system sourcing for Austria
LIFA coordinated battery-supplier checks and sample testing for an Austrian solar-storage program covering 2,400 installed systems.
- The buyer
- A Graz, Austria installer of residential and commercial solar with storage.
- The product scope
- Battery storage systems; 5 kWh to 20 kWh, 2,400 systems. Program value $2.9M.
What needed to change?
Battery safety is regulated (CE, UN38.3); a prior supplier's certificates were invalid, forcing a costly retrofit of 400 systems.
How LIFA managed the work
We verified CE and UN38.3 certification with issuing bodies.
We qualified 2 battery manufacturers with test-lab access.
We ran cell-level and system-level testing on samples.
We structured phased deliveries to installation bookings.
2,400 systems installed with a 0.2% field failure rate; zero certificate issues; the program renewed at $3.6M.
From our company project database, with the work, approvals and results shown together.
What this project shows
Certificate verification and physical testing served different purposes. Cell-level findings and complete-system checks both informed the installation supply plan.
