Just outside Amsterdam, a converted cow barn is quietly running a global payment app used by over a million people around the clock. To keep it online, Wietse Wind and his installer Danny built a massive 540 kWh LiFePO4 storage system with 150 solar panels, multiple Quattro-II and MultiPlus-II inverters, and full grid redundancy using Victron Energy equipment. This is the story of the largest residential ESS install either of them had ever built.
