DJI is expanding the range of functions of its DJI Power 2000 portable power station with an option that is of great interest to many households in Europe: users in Germany, France and Spain can now feed surplus solar energy into the public power grid. The new function makes the Powerstation not only a flexible energy storage device, but also a smart building block for the private energy transition.
- Surplus solar energy can be fed into the public grid
- Initially available in Germany, France and Spain
- Compatible with balcony solar systems
- Gradual introduction planned in other European countries
Efficient use of solar power – with feed-in to the grid
The DJI Power 2000 has been known as a powerful and portable power station since its market launch. With a capacity of up to 2 kWh, it offers a flexible solution for mobile applications, emergency power supply or as a supplement to solar panels on the balcony. A new feature is now the option of not leaving surplus power unused, but actively feeding it into the public grid.
In concrete terms, this means that if the Power 2000 is charged during the day with a balcony solar system, users can initially consume the stored electricity themselves. As soon as the Powerstation is fully charged, excess energy is automatically fed into the grid. In this way, the use of solar power can be made much more efficient – an advantage both for your own wallet and for reducing the load on the power grid.
The function is currently activated in Germany, France and Spain. DJI has already announced that it will be rolled out in other European countries as soon as the regulatory framework allows it.
A step towards smart energy use
With the grid-connected storage function, DJI is significantly expanding the possible uses of its Powerstation. While many Powerstations have so far mainly been used as mobile energy storage units, the Power 2000 now enables a flexible dual role: mobile energy supply for on the go and intelligent intermediate storage for solar power at home.
This innovation is particularly interesting in conjunction with balcony solar systems, which have enjoyed great popularity in recent years. Instead of letting excess energy fizzle out unused or purchasing expensive additional storage units, households can feed the electricity generated directly back into the grid. The DJI Power 2000 makes this possible in an uncomplicated way and with a comparatively low entry price.
DJI provides detailed instructions and user manuals that explain the connection and configuration step by step. In addition to the technical advantages, the ecological aspect also plays a role: every kilowatt hour of solar power fed into the grid contributes to the reduction of fossil energy sources and strengthens the decentralized energy supply.
Conclusion
With the new grid storage function, the DJI Power 2000 is evolving from a pure power station into a versatile component of the private energy transition. Users can not only store and consume solar power flexibly, but also feed surplus energy into the grid with immediate effect – initially in Germany, France and Spain, with other countries in the pipeline. DJI is thus providing an important impetus for greater energy efficiency in everyday life.
The DJI Power 2000 is already available and the new function can be activated via a software update.
