Home battery · Growatt · CEC approval expired
A 10.2 kWh home battery with backup power — smaller home size, the 10–15 kWh band.
CEC approval has expired. May not qualify for rebates or be installable in some states.
Recommendation: Contact manufacturer about re-certification timeline.
The Growatt ARK XH is Growatt's newer-generation modular battery system with improved 7.68kW peak power. Offers competitive value with modular 2.56kWh LFP modules. It is no longer on the CEC approved battery list, so it is not currently eligible for the WA Residential Battery Scheme rebate.
The numbers that matter for a home. The full datasheet is below.
Usable capacity
How much energy it stores for you to use
Continuous power
How much it can run at once — most of a home, but not everything at full tilt
Round-trip efficiency
How much of the energy you store comes back out
Depth of discharge
You can use the whole battery, not just part of it
Warranty
How long the manufacturer stands behind it
Battery chemistry
Lithium iron phosphate — the long-cycle-life type

Typical installed price, before rebates
Both rebates are $0 here: this battery isn’t currently on the CEC approved list, which the WA scheme and the federal STC program both require. Estimates only; your quote will vary.
Usable capacity, for one battery system
This battery is one unit in the smaller home band. The WA rebate caps at 10 kWh, but that is a rebate limit, not a sizing guide.
