Short Description
The GoodWe GW12K-ES-C10 ES Uniq is a 12kW single-phase low-voltage hybrid inverter for solar generation, battery storage and backup applications. It supports up to 24kW PV input, dual MPPT, a 40ā60V battery range, 240A maximum continuous charging/discharging, IP66 protection and WLAN/App monitoring.
Full Product Description
The GoodWe ES Uniq GW12K-ES-C10 combines on-grid solar production, low-voltage battery storage and backup power in one single-phase platform. Its 12kW nominal output is supported by up to 24kW of PV input, allowing up to 200% DC oversizing where system design and local regulations permit.
Two MPPT trackers support flexible array design, while the 48V nominal battery interface works across a 40ā60V range. The official datasheet specifies up to 240A continuous charging and discharging, with 12kW maximum charging power and 13.2kW maximum discharging power.
For backup applications, the unit provides 12kVA nominal backup output and GoodWe specifies seamless backup switching below 4ms. The ES Uniq platform also includes a 3-in-1 port for generator, smart-load or on-grid-inverter integration, plus micro-grid and parallel-operation capability.
The IP66 enclosure, LCD interface and WLAN/App monitoring make the inverter suitable for modern residential and light-commercial energy-storage systems. Battery model, firmware, BMS protocol, grid approval and installation design must be verified before purchase and commissioning.

Safety and Protection
Official datasheet protections include PV string current monitoring, PV insulation-resistance detection, residual-current monitoring, reverse-polarity protection, anti-islanding protection, AC overcurrent/short-circuit/overvoltage protection, an integrated DC switch, Type III DC and AC surge protection, and integrated remote shutdown. AFCI and rapid shutdown are optional and must not be advertised as standard unless confirmed for the supplied SKU.
Installation Notes
- Installation and commissioning must be completed by qualified solar/electrical professionals.
- Confirm the exact battery model against GoodWe's latest battery compatibility list.
- Check local grid-code approval, export limits and regional firmware before installation.
- Confirm conductor sizes, breaker ratings, earthing, surge protection and clearances from the official installation manual.
- Maximum values are engineering limits; actual output depends on battery capability, PV voltage, temperature, grid rules and system configuration.
- WiFi/LAN/Bluetooth hardware or kits can vary by market and supplied package; confirm box contents with the seller.
