The Totara PowerPod | Grid-Tied Solar System

A complete residential solar system that helps you generate more of your own power, reduce reliance on the grid, and keep essential appliances running during a power outage.

At the heart of the system is the WHES PowerPod IP65, an all-in-one solar and battery solution designed to simplify installation and retrofitting.

The system uses a stackable inverter and lithium batteries.

The batteries can use up to 90% of their stored energy, giving you more usable power while maintaining reliable, long-term performance.

Flexibility to use your stored solar energy when it matters most:

- Keep the essentials running during a power outage.

- Store solar energy for later, rather than sending excess power back to the grid for a low return.

- Shift your energy use to help reduce the amount you spend on peak electricity.

- Customisable battery storage to suit your power needs.

Built for the future.

The ideal residential solar system for Kiwi homes that want a balance of solar power, battery storage and energy independence.

Powered By WHES

The Solar Reserve Series is built by serious battery storage specialists.

WHES specialises in battery energy storage solutions, rather than simply adding batteries to an existing solar product range. With more than 16 years of energy storage R&D, 800+ large scale projects worldwide, and solutions deployed across more than 50 countries, WHES brings extensive experience in designing and developing energy storage systems.

Their technology gives the Solar Reserve Series a strong foundation in specialist battery storage technology, featuring:

  • Smart energy management through the WHES app, giving you real-time visibility of your solar generation and household energy consumption, wherever you are.
  • Flexible and expandable storage so you can start with the capacity you need and add more battery modules as your energy needs grow.
  • Four layers of protection designed to protect the battery from the cell level through to the overall system structure.
  • High-quality battery cells tested to the rigorous UL 9540A standard for battery energy storage systems.
  • Built-in fire suppression in each battery module, providing an additional layer of protection in the event of a thermal event.

How Residential Solar Works

Solar-panel_transp_wide.png

Solar Panels

Your solar panels geneate energy from sunlight.

WHES_Inverter_LP-Grid-Tied-Solar.png

Inverter & Battery System

The inverter uses this energy to power your household loads.
Excess power is stored in the batteries for later use.

Power-Pole_LP_Grid-Tied-Solar.png

The Grid

When your batteries are full, excess power is sent back to the grid for credit. When you don't produce enough energy, you use power from the grid.
