- The maker describes NATEC HOME as a sodium-ion home battery using salt technology, developed in Graz and presented as the first home battery of this kind developed in Austria.
- In its release of 27 February 2026 the maker says NATEC HOME can be ordered now by email, at a stated price of 3990 euros before tax.
- The release gives a nominal capacity of 7.68 kWh and a power of 3.8 kW; the stated life of 20 to 25 years with at least 80 percent residual performance is a maker claim, not published warranty terms.
- An official dated NATEC HOME datasheet has now been read. The page remains unscored because usable capacity is not established, round-trip efficiency is not established, governing warranty terms remain unconfirmed and no exact certification listing was independently recovered. CAN/Modbus descriptions do not establish approved inverter compatibility; how it connects to an inverter remains unestablished; rubric fit remains unresolved.
- The German-language maker datasheet and public product page now supplement the Graz announcement. Their revision, measurement and interface boundaries are retained; no exact sale-market entitlement or scored configuration is selected, and this record is not joined to another product.
- The official two-page NATEC HOME datasheet is dated 25 February 2026. It identifies NATEC as a brand of ACCUPOWER Forschungs-, Entwicklungs- und Vertriebsgesellschaft mbH in Graz, Austria. It does not print a distinct hardware model code; the publication model field stays unchanged.
- The dated sheet lists 48 V nominal voltage, a 32-55 V operating range, 160 Ah nominal capacity and 7.68 kWh energy. Its 3.8 kW headline does not define a continuous/surge power test or exact inverter configuration. Usable capacity is not established and no efficiency-adjusted energy is inferred.
- The sheet gives 95% efficiency without defining battery DC round-trip, AC round-trip, test temperature, current or system boundary. Round-trip efficiency is not established; this figure cannot be converted into a battery RTE score or usable capacity.
- The dated sheet gives at least 8,000 cycles at 80% DoD and separately claims 80% remaining capacity in its longevity summary. The undated maker web table instead gives at least 10,000 cycles at 70% DoD. These are different test/use conditions, not interchangeable claims; neither source supplies temperature, C-rate or a complete traceable test report. The cycle headline is not a 20-25-year performance warranty.
- The charging range is 0 C to +55 C and discharge range is -30 C to +55 C in the exact technical table. The broader -30 C operation headline does not permit charging below 0 C. IP65 and convection cooling are stated, but the reviewed sources do not establish an exact independent fire test, outdoor installation procedure or unconditional freedom from thermal runaway.
- The dated sheet lists CAN; the current maker web table also names Modbus. This difference needs firmware/revision clarification. Neither establishes an open API, VPP integration, approved inverter list or an exact home-system configuration; rubric fit remains unresolved.
- The datasheet lists dimensions of 80 x 50 x 22.7 cm, approximately 130 kg and parallel connection of up to 15 systems. A multi-unit headline does not establish measured usable energy, approved parallel accessories or a scored multi-unit configuration.
- The sheet advertises a ten-year warranty but does not contain governing warranty terms. The warrantor obligations, commencement, retention/throughput, registration, claims, transfer, remedies and labour/freight costs remain unconfirmed. No lifespan or brochure headline is substituted for that instrument.
- The dated sheet names UN38.3 and MSDS and lists UL1973 as a standard; the maker web page additionally names REACH. No exact certification listing or test report was independently recovered. Transport, safety-data and chemical-compliance labels do not establish a complete-system fire result or local grid approval.
- The new maker sources provide technical depth but do not establish exact local stock, sale-market eligibility, an inverter pairing or a scored product. The dated announcement price remains historical. The datasheet gate is closed; usable capacity, round-trip efficiency, governing warranty, certification and rubric fit remain held.
