A High-Performance Residential Storage System in Ravenshoe, North QLD
Ravenshoe—Queensland’s highest town—is known for its tropical climate, frequent thunderstorms, and occasional grid instability. With the need for dependable backup power growing steadily in the region, many homeowners are turning to hybrid inverter systems paired with advanced battery solutions to improve everyday energy reliability.
Why Pi LV1: A Smarter Modular ESS for Modern Homes
Before diving into this project, it’s important to understand the appeal of the PYTES Pi LV1 system.
The PYTES Pi LV1 stackable lithium energy storage system is built for flexible, reliable, and intelligent energy management. Its modular architecture allows installers and distributors to configure systems that suit both residential and small commercial applications. With simplified installation, scalable capacity options, and strong safety protections, Pi LV1 addresses common pain points such as limited space, complex wiring, and restrictive expansion.
Designed with real-world installation environments in mind, Pi LV1 maximizes space efficiency—a full stack occupies less than 1 m² when mounted vertically and close to the wall. Multiple units can be paralleled without structural changes to the main setup, allowing customers to expand capacity smoothly while protecting their initial investment. These features make Pi LV1 a compelling solution for markets requiring both flexibility and long-term value.
System Overview: Deye 3-Phase Inverters + CEC-Listed Pi LV1 Batteries
In this Ravenshoe project, the homeowner upgraded their energy system with:
· 2 × Deye 3-phase 12 kW hybrid inverters
· 3 × PYTES Pi LV1-6 low-voltage stackable batteries (CEC-listed)
Being officially CEC-listed, Pi LV1 meets Australian compliance requirements and gives installers confidence in long-term compatibility and safety. Its high-density vertical stacking allowed the installer to build a compact battery bank without consuming much indoor area, while the Deye 3-phase inverter setup ensures balanced output and smooth load handling across the entire home.
Real-World Benefits for North Queensland Homes
This installation was driven by the homeowner’s need for:
1. Greater energy independence during storm seasons
2. Stable backup power for essential household loads
3. Long-term savings through improved solar self-consumption
By combining high-power inverters with reliable LFP-based Pi LV1 batteries, the system now delivers consistent backup capability, optimized daily cycling, and remote monitoring for continuous management. The homeowner enjoys a resilient, future-ready energy solution designed to perform under North Queensland’s demanding conditions.
