sonnenBatterie 10 hybrid vs sonnenBatterie 10 performance
Technical comparison · All-in-one
Same dimensions and the same LFP chemistry: sonnenBatterie 10 hybrid has three-phase backup power; sonnenBatterie 10 performance does not, but has twice the capacity and far more power. The choice is between continuity of supply and performance.

The differences that matter
- Backup → three-phase EPS with a transfer time of about 5 seconds against none: only sonnenBatterie 10 hybrid keeps running without the grid.
- Capacity → 5 kWh against 10 kWh: sonnenBatterie 10 performance stores twice as much.
- Power → 2.5 kW against 7 kW continuous and charging (manufacturer-declared values): in theory, without losses, 5 kWh at 2.5 kW takes about 2 hours to charge.
- Expansion → up to 25 kWh against 50 kWh.
Which one to choose
Choose sonnenBatterie 10 hybrid if…
the house is three-phase and needs to be able to switch to backup: the EPS transfers in 5000 ms, about 5 seconds, and declared noise is 35 dB. The trade-off: 5 kWh usable, 2.5 kW of continuous and charge power, expansion up to 25 kWh.
Choose sonnenBatterie 10 performance if…
energy and power are what you need: 10 kWh usable, 7 kW continuous and charging, expansion up to 50 kWh and the sonnenVPP virtual power plant. The trade-off: no backup function, so an outage leaves the house without electricity.
