Decision evidence

What the documents establish

Published evidence, source-reviewed non-disclosure and unresolved questions remain separate from the product score.

Usable capacity

89.9% of this battery’s nominal capacity is usable, 8.92 kWh in the scored configuration.

8.92 kWh usableScored configuration: EP760 + 2 x B500. Published range 8.92–17.84 kWh.

The remaining 10.1% stays in the pack as reserve; the home never draws it.

Nominal capacity is not stated here. The usable kWh and the depth-of-discharge percentage are sourced separately, at times from different documents and different module counts, so dividing one by the other would produce a nominal figure no manufacturer published.

No year-by-year capacity schedule is published for this product - the manufacturer guarantees only this end-of-term minimum, not a specific decline curve. Capacity figure based on the sourced usable capacity of the base configuration; modular systems scale with additional modules.

The blackout score is a standalone benchmark of outage resilience only - it re-weights sourced specs already scored in this product’s pillars (backup tier, switchover, surge strength, backup power, off-grid recharge) and never affects the overall score. Dots show the full battery fleet; the marker is this product.

Market context

Global evidencechange in the site menu

Global benchmark. This scorecard is benchmarked globally. A global score does not imply local availability, certification, warranty coverage, or installer compatibility.

Benchmark anchor. The scored reference uses two B500 modules. B500A and configurations outside the exact two-to-four-module inverter boundary are excluded. Scored model: EP760 + 2 x B500 · checked 2026-08-02. Evidence.

Sources & references · checked 2026-09-06

Strong evidence coverage

18 of 18 scored criteria link directly to a published source.

Values marked estimated, derived, or not found remain visible on the audit sheet and do not carry the same evidential weight as a linked source. Coverage measures direct links, not an independent guarantee that a claim is correct.

Record revision. Exact EP760 and B500 specifications, B500 compatibility statement, EP760 limited warranty and Australian approved-product lists checked 2026-08-02. First-market US and DE overlay review 2026-09-01: official regional catalogues recorded; Australian overlays and scores unchanged.
