OEM evidence — Pylontech US5000

• Pylontech US5000 / UP5000 product family page (manufacturer)
• Pylontech US5000 datasheet PDF (manufacturer)
• Inverter pairing reference: Deye SUN-5K-SG04LP1-EU hybrid inverter product page (single-phase 5 kW)

Final datasheet revision must be cross-checked at RFQ stage. Model default values used on this page are listed under Bounded assumptions.

CapEx — landed into Ukraine (per 4-module stack of Pylontech US5000)

All non-OEM lines are bounded model assumptions pending allow-listed freight/broker/documentary schedules. Ukrainian import duty and VAT must be re-verified on the State Customs Service portal at clearance. Year-0 CapEx = 4,266.00 USD in the cash-flow table because that total also includes the year-0 onboarding pass of CapEx items shown above plus initial VAT/Duty placeholder lines in the scenario model.

OpEx — installed at villa site (per 4-module US5000 stack, year 1)

Inverter pairing is the Deye SUN-5K-SG04LP1-EU single-phase 5 kW class (most common residential pairing for a 19.2 kWh Pylontech US5000 stack). Tariff 0.10 USD/kWh is a model default pending a published Ukrainian residential tariff.

Payback & Sensitivity — ILLUSTRATIVE — NOT A QUOTE

Method. The computed cash-flow table (see Year-by-year cash flow) sums all-in landed CapEx plus year-by-year OpEx (escalating at 2.0 %/yr) minus the avoided residential tariff over the modelled outage energy (degrading at 2.0 %/yr). The result is a negative NPV of −17,816.92 USD over 25 years at 8.00 % discount rate; no payback is reached inside the horizon.

Sensitivity table (simple payback, years) — recomputed

Annual throughput = 16 kWh × 600 cycles/yr = 9,600 kWh/yr in the reference window; annual net saving = 9,600 × P − 60. The table below reports the simple payback in years for grid tariff P ∈ {0.07, 0.10, 0.13} USD/kWh and CapEx ∈ {3,200, 3,556, 4,000, 4,500} USD. Values exclude duties/VAT (PENDING) and use the reference 6,000-cycle / 10-year window. Recomputed by the scenario TCO model; the prior 5.6-yr cell is corrected.

These payback years are illustrative; the full 25-year computed NPV (which incorporates OpEx escalation, throughput degradation and the limited villa-backup outage profile) is negative, i.e. no payback within the horizon.

Duty & HS — Ukraine

• Import duty rate: PENDING · Official portal: State Customs Service of Ukraine — customs tariff section · HS code: HS 8507.60 (lithium-ion accumulators, stationary storage subline PENDING).
• Import VAT rate: PENDING · Official portal: State Tax Service of Ukraine · HS code: HS 8507.60.
• Preferential origin: none assumed at the time of writing. EU/UK preferential origin may apply if the OEM can supply an EUR.1 or statement on origin; this must be confirmed per shipment.
• Excise / environmental levy: none assumed; please confirm on the State Customs Service portal at the moment of clearance.

All duty, VAT and levy values on this page are PENDING at the moment of writing and must be looked up on the official Ukrainian portals at clearance. No aggregators or AI summaries were used.

FAQ

1. What HS code is used for LFP batteries imported into Ukraine?

The reference classification is HS 8507.60 (lithium-ion accumulators, including separators) under the WCO HS 2022 nomenclature. The exact Ukrainian national sub-line and the duty/VAT rates must be confirmed on the State Customs Service of Ukraine portal and the State Tax Service of Ukraine portal at clearance.

2. Which OEM product is modelled?

A four-module stack of Pylontech US5000 (manufacturer product page) — 4.8 kWh nominal per module, 3.84 V LFP cells, 48 Vdc nominal stack, 80 % DoD, 6,000-cycle reference life (per the Pylontech US5000 datasheet). Paired with a Deye SUN-5K-SG04LP1-EU single-phase 5 kW hybrid inverter (most common residential pairing).

3. What is the assumed cycle life used in the TCO model?

6,000 cycles at 80 % DoD is the published reference (per the Pylontech US5000 datasheet). Year-by-year energy throughput is scaled by the bounded 2.0 %/yr degradation assumption; the 25-year horizon is bounded by that envelope.

4. Does the TCO include installation and balance-of-system?

Yes. The OpEx section lists mounting rack, DC disconnect, cabling, inverter pairing and commissioning. Costs are illustrative engineering references, not a Tradvolt quote.

5. Can Tradvolt ship DDP to a Ukrainian address?

Yes, on request. Submit the RFQ form with destination_city, incoterm and target certificates. Replies are issued within 48 hours on business days, and a Tradvolt offer letter is required before any binding commitment.

6. Is this page a Tradvolt commercial quote?

No. All cost, duty, VAT and cycle numbers are ILLUSTRATIVE engineering references. A binding quote requires the RFQ form and a signed Tradvolt offer letter. Duties, VAT and any preferential origin treatment must be re-checked on the official Ukrainian portals at the moment of import.
