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.

Before you buy

Two things to check

Local positionUse a market view to check local availability, approvals and warranty scope.

Ask the installer: What usable capacity, backup power and warranted operating conditions will the installed Single Phase 5 configuration deliver?

Verification & sources

Market context

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

Benchmark anchor. The score uses one 9.6 kWh usable BW-BAT-10.1P module rather than rewarding the largest supported six-module stack. Scored model: BW-INV-SPH5K with one BW-BAT-10.1P · checked 2026-08-01. Evidence.

Strong evidence coverage

23 of 23 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.
