Decision evidence

What the documents establish

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

Usable capacity

100% of this battery’s nominal capacity is usable, 6.31 kWh in the scored configuration.

6.31 kWh usableScored configuration: Reserva 6.3 (6.31 kWh usable). Published range 6.31–15.79 kWh.

No reserve is withheld at the stated depth of discharge.

At a sourced 100% depth of discharge the usable and nominal figures are the same number, so no separate nominal capacity is stated.

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.
