New from Anker SOLIX is the Anker SOLIX XE. With up to 5,000W power output and a larger capacity of 7kWh, this is an all-in-one home battery with the easiest installation and maximum throughput that helps UK households cut energy bills.
The Anker SOLIX XE features a 314Ah professional-scale energy core with industry leading 10,000 cycle life, that keeps up with daily solar charging and off-peak rate cycling year after year. This new home energy solution demonstrates Anker SOLIX’s mission to make it easier for UK households to unlock more value from solar, consistently maximise savings without compromising battery longevity, and prepare for a future shaped by cleaner power.
Aaron James Darvill, Strategic Sales Director of Anker SOLIX UK said: “The UK is entering a new phase of energy transition, with strong momentum behind smarter homes, clean energy and technologies that give consumers greater control over when and how they use electricity. We believe energy storage will play a critical role the shift to clean energy. With Anker SOLIX XE, we’re making it easier for UK households to unlock more value from solar, benefit from flexible tariffs, and prepare for a future shaped by electric vehicles, heat pumps and cleaner, homegrown power.”
More Power, Much Smarter
Combining an all-in-one, reliable design with powerful performance, Anker SOLIX XE offers up to 10kWp solar input, 5,000W AC output and 7,000Wh of capacity, and has complete discharge capability, enabling a 100% depth of charge. The solution is suitable for both standard and higher-consumption homes, supporting everyday household energy use such as lighting, TV and gas central heating, alongside higher-demand appliances such as electric vehicles (EVs) and heat pumps. It helps households cut energy bills by storing more solar power for use during peak demand and making the most of lower-cost, off-peak electricity overnight.
Centralised, smart energy management is also accessible through the Anker app. Powered by Anker IntelligenceTM, homeowners can monitor real-time energy consumption and power generation, as well as analyse performance over time to further optimise usage and reduce costs. For example, the system can predict future weather conditions in advance. If tomorrow is expected to be cloudy or rainy with limited sunlight, the XE will automatically charge at lower electricity prices the day before, helping users benefit from lower energy costs the next day.
In addition, the new AI Assistant, Anka, can help with system operation, energy forecasting and efficiency decisions with ease. It supports natural language understanding, context recognition, and multiple languages. Users can simply ask questions or operate the system by voice control, just like having a conversation, and Anka will provide fast and accurate responses.
All-in-One Design, Making Installation and Future Expansion Easier
The true all-in-one design of Anker SOLIX XE also makes professional installation faster and easier. Thanks to streamlined wiring, a screwless hardwire terminal, an adjustable base, and embedded inverter design, the installation efficiency is improved by 80%. Five-minute fast commissioning becomes possible.
The system can also be simply scaled if household energy needs grow. It offers up to 126kWh and 15kW AC output with support for a hybrid single-phase system of up to three-parallel connections. And it enables whole-home backup with 10ms UPS when paired with Anker SOLIX Power Dock Pro.
Building On Success, Ready to Bring Plug-and-Play Energy Storage to UK Homes
Anker SOLIX also provides simple, plug-and-play solar systems home areas like balconies and rooftops, designed for renters, apartment owners, and homeowners. Recent accolades from Euromonitor International (Shanghai) Co., Ltd, confirm Anker SOLIX is the world’s number one Plug-and-Play Home Solar Battery Storage Brand1 and Plug-and-Play Solar Battery Storage2, based on USD retail sales.
Anker SOLIX Solarbank 3 Pro is a 1200W bidirectional plug-and-play Balcony Storage System with 3600W | 4 MPPTs (Maximum Power Point Tracking) that is popular across Europe. With a capacity of 2.68kWh, it is stackable and easily expandable to up to 16kWh. It can be charged from the grid and used later when electricity prices are higher, helping households make better use of off-peak hours and suits homes on dynamic energy tariffs.
Subject to the UK’s evolving regulatory framework and growing government support for plug-in solar and homegrown clean energy, Anker SOLIX hopes to bring Solarbank to the UK in the future. In April 2026, the company also joined the Solar Energy UK trade association, to collaborate on driving the country’s transition to clean energy, support installers, and help bring more affordable energy storage and smarter solar solutions to British households.
