Fronius USA to Debut the Fronius GEN24 Plus at RE+ 2024
The Introduction of the New USA Residential Hybrid Inverter Increases Energy Independence

Following the successful launch of the Fronius GEN24 in the United States of America, Fronius is delighted to launch the Fronius GEN24 Plus, a next-generation hybrid inverter designed to meet the evolving energy needs of America on November 18, 2024. Join us at RE+ 2024 in Anaheim, CA from September 9-12, to see the new hybrid inverter and meet the Fronius team.

Get the Most Out of PV Systems
The Fronius GEN24 Plus is not just an upgrade, it's next level in solar energy management, offering exceptional flexibility, efficiency, and reliability. With the addition of battery connectivity, the Fronius GEN24 Plus enables optimal energy storage and usage, making it an essential component for anyone looking to maximize their energy independence. The Fronius GEN24 Plus has all the features that made its predecessor so popular but takes things to the next level by integrating the ability to connect to a battery system. This hybrid inverter allows users to store excess solar energy and use it when needed, significantly increasing the overall efficiency of the PV system. The Fronius GEN24 Plus also offers two backup power options, ensuring that critical appliances remain operational even during power outages.

Essential Backup Power: Peace of Mind, No Matter What
One of the outstanding features of the Fronius GEN24 Plus is its essential backup power function. The Fronius GEN24 Plus allows users to choose between a basic backup power supply with the PV Point, which supplies selected electrical consumers via a protected GFCI outlet, which can supply a wide range of household items such as a phone chargers or WIFI routers. The essential backup option, enabled by the switching device Fronius Essential Load Backup Unit – available in early 2025, ensures that homes or businesses will continue to be powered at full inverter output in the event of a grid failure, provided there is sufficient solar production or battery supply power. This feature is perfect for those looking to increase their energy resilience and reduce reliance on the grid.

Perfect Fit with BYD Battery Box Premium HVM US
To fully utilize the hybrid capabilities of the Fronius GEN24 Plus, Fronius has partnered with BYD to ensure seamless compatibility with the BYD Battery Box Premium HVM US. This award-winning collaboration provides users with high charge and discharge performance, allowing them to make the most of their solar energy production. Available in capacities from 11.0 to 19.3 kW, the BYD HVM US is designed for easy installation and robust performance. The battery's Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) cell chemistry ensures long-term reliability and safety, making it an ideal match for the Fronius GEN24 Plus.

Maximize Energy Yields Even in Shaded or Hot Conditions
The Fronius GEN24 Plus is equipped with the Dynamic Peak Manager, an innovative shading management algorithm that ensures the highest possible energy yield even when some of the solar panels are shaded. This feature optimizes performance at the string level, eliminating the need for additional module-level optimizers. In addition, the GEN24 Plus features Active Cooling Technology, an advanced system that increases performance and durability by efficiently cooling the power electronics. This technology is critical in hot climates as it helps prevent power derating, ensuring consistent energy production and extending the life of your solar system. With these advanced features, customers can enjoy a more reliable, hassle-free solar experience, knowing that their PV system will consistently perform at peak levels, even in challenging conditions.

Fronius UP.storage: Future-Proofing Energy Investments
Fronius recognizes that its customers' energy needs may evolve over time, which is why the Fronius GEN24 was designed with the future in mind. With the Fronius UP.storage software update, available on November 18, 2024, existing Fronius GEN24 inverters can be easily upgraded to the Fronius GEN24 Plus, transforming them into hybrid inverters that can be connected to a battery system. This upgrade process is straightforward and allows customers to expand their PV systems without having to replace existing hardware. Fronius UP.storage is available through the Fronius Solar.web application, making it easier than ever to keep PV systems up to date with the latest technology.
