Battery
Storage and bank layout
Required capacity, practical installed capacity, usable energy, reserve, expected depletion and series or parallel arrangement where applicable.
Results and reports
The result should tell you more than how many batteries to buy.
GridGap organises the output into system requirements, configuration guidance, warnings and the assumptions used to reach the result. Pro and Business users can carry that information into a branded PDF report.
Headline requirements
Start with the equipment categories the scenario actually uses.
An AC battery-only scenario will not produce the same result set as a mixed AC/DC solar scenario. GridGap adds or removes result groups according to the selected architecture.
Inverter
Continuous and surge demand
Minimum and recommended inverter capacity, estimated load percentage, system voltage and surge-related outputs for included AC appliances.
Charging
Energy replacement
Energy to replace, charging window, charger efficiency, minimum charge requirement and estimated recharge time from an AC source.
Solar
Array and controller sizing
Required solar watts, panel count, battery recharge contribution, solar-day load demand, controller requirement and array surplus or shortfall.
DC distribution
Boards, converters and load paths
Main distribution requirements, downstream boards, voltage conversion and the division between AC and DC loads in mixed systems.
Configuration details
Technical results become more detailed when the inputs support them.
When technical installation inputs are populated, GridGap can calculate wiring required, number of interconnectors, battery and solar string or parallel connections, and related installation guidance.
Warnings and information
A calculated number can still describe a poor setup.
Warnings are there to draw attention to inputs or outcomes that need review. They do not all mean the calculation failed, and they should not all be treated with the same urgency.
Critical
A serious incompatibility or condition that should be resolved before relying on the proposed arrangement.
Warning
A result may be technically possible but close to a limit, dependent on an assumption or likely to need adjustment.
Information
Context that helps explain the result, a design choice or an area that still needs professional confirmation.
Branded PDF output
Turn the saved calculation into something another person can review.
Reports can include the project and scenario summary, appliance loads, inputs, assumptions, calculated requirements, system configuration, warnings, charts and supporting result summaries.
GridGap ReportPrepared for review
Guesthouse Backup System
Battery, inverter, charger, solar and distribution results grouped with assumptions and warnings.
Results are most useful when the assumptions are visible.
GridGap keeps the inputs, outputs and review notes together so a saved version can be understood later rather than becoming an unexplained number.
