Anker Solix Vs Neovolt Batteries


As households across Australia move toward solar plus storage, choosing the right battery system is one of the most critical decisions. Among the newer contenders, Anker Solix (especially the X1 series) and Neovolt / NeoVolta are gaining attention. But which one suits your home better? In this article, we compare their technology, performance, pros and cons, and real-world fit in Australian settings.

Anker Solix (X1 Series)

The Anker SOLIX X1 is a modular energy storage system that allows scaling from small home setups up to large capacities. Each module combines power and battery elements via an internal “energy optimizer,” enabling independent charging/discharging of modules. The system supports both AC-coupled and hybrid/three-phase configurations for flexibility in new or retrofit installations.

One module typically offers 5 kWh capacity as a base unit. Systems can scale up (e.g. multiple modules) to reach tens or even hundreds of kWh. Anker claims round-trip efficiency and smart control via app for energy modes (self-consumption, time-of-use, off-grid etc.).

Neovolt / NeoVolta Battery Systems

Neovolt (or sometimes marketed “NeoVolta”) is a battery + inverter combination typically offered as an integrated “all-in-one” unit. For example, a common model is a 10 kWh battery with a 5 kW inverter combined into a single device. Neovolt (via VoltX Energy in Australia) also supports parallel connection—multiple units can be linked for greater capacity.

In terms of battery chemistry, Neovolt uses LiFePO₄ (lithium iron phosphate), known for better thermal stability, safety, and longer cycle life. The system supports dual MPPT inputs and typically delivers continuous output ~5 kW, with peak (surge) capabilities around 7.36 kW or 10 kW depending on the model. Switchover to backup mode during grid outage is fast—about ~20 ms in many cases.

Neovolt also offers modular capacity variants (10 kWh, 20 kWh, 30 kWh etc.) for different home sizes.
