Yes, there are warranties available for lithium-ion solar batteries. Here is an overview of typical warranty conditions for these batteries:
Typical Warranty Conditions
- Duration: Most lithium-ion solar batteries come with a standard warranty period of 10 years. However, some manufacturers offer extended warranties up to 12 or 15 years, with one notable exception, Storz Power, offering up to 25 years.
- Capacity Guarantee: A common guarantee is that the battery will retain at least 70% of its original capacity by the end of the warranty period.
- Cycle Limitations: Many warranties include cycle limits, typically around 6,000 cycles. If the battery exceeds this cycle count, the warranty may expire prematurely.
- Energy Throughput: Some warranties are based on energy throughput, often around 30 to 50 MWh. Once this threshold is reached, the warranty period ends.
- Types of Warranties: There are primarily two types: manufacturer warranties, which cover defects and faults in the battery, and installer warranties, which cover installation-related issues.
- Exclusions: Common exclusions include damage from misuse, natural disasters, or unauthorized relocation of the battery.
It is crucial to review the specific warranty terms for each battery since conditions can vary by manufacturer and product specifics.
