In the scenic hills of central Italy, a homeowner recently upgraded their solar energy setup by installing a GSL Energy 10kWh wall-mounted lithium battery alongside a Deye hybrid inverter—right in a small utility room on the rooftop. From the doorway of the room, you can see the shining solar panels stretching across the sunlit roof. This installation perfectly illustrates how even limited indoor space can be transformed into a smart, efficient, and sustainable energy hub.
A Smart Use of Rooftop Space
The customer wanted an energy storage solution that would not only maximize the use of their solar energy but also fit seamlessly into their home's existing structure. The choice of the rooftop room just steps away from the solar panels, offered several advantages:
Short cable runs, improving efficiency
Direct line-of-sight to the solar array
Plenty of natural light and airflow, ideal for battery temperature stability
Space-saving wall-mount installation
The white GSL 10kWh battery, mounted neatly on the back wall, blends into the clean, minimal design of the room. Its compact design leaves plenty of space for walking and future expansion. The Deye hybrid inverter is installed alongside it, with both systems working in tandem to manage energy generation, storage, and discharge.
Despite being a rooftop install, the setup process was smooth and completed in a single day. The battery system was pre-configured before delivery, and final connections on-site were made quickly. Installers ensured that all wiring was secure, protected from heat exposure, and compliant with local regulations.
Through the open rooftop room door, you can see the solar panels basking in the afternoon sun—feeding clean energy directly into the home and battery system. The synergy between the panels, inverter, and storage has created an efficient closed-loop solution.
