Hi, my simple headline question is can I do this with Victron + Solaredge?
I hope I haven't missed the answer, I may not be searching with correct terminology for Victron systems, please redirect me if need be.
Planning a system presently, which I will get an installer to fit, however I wished to check in advance that this is feasible, if someone could assist please...
Thinking East-West system, possibility to extend to South-East-West
East : 10 panels, ~4.3 to 4.8kWp, concrete roof tile ~30deg pitch
West : 9/10 panels, ~3.8 to 4.8kWp, concrete roof tile ~30deg pitch
Future South - may fit 6-10 panels, wall mounted
I have some shading which the more I think about is drawing me towards a Solaredge based solution
East : shading factor ~0.90
West : shading factor ~0.82
PV inverter:-
For East-West : 2x strings, one from East, one from West into a Solaredge inverter, poss a 10kW HDwave
Later, for South add a second Solaredge inverter, poss a 5kW
Inverter:-
Victron Multiplus II 10kVA version, + cerbo GX and monitoring screen
Batteries:-
I know solaredge do 10kWh battery but at £6500 each it's expensive
- linked to the multiplus - starting 10 to 15 kWh, poss increasing to 30kWh
- Fogstar 15kWh rack is much cheaper than solaredge battery,
- or maybe several Pylontech US3000C / 5000C
Informal chat with the DNO suggest 8kW export would be likely to get a thumbs up, maybe more?
I used a freely available PV tool to draw something up, assuming 3x Pylontech US3000C. The tool may not take Victron features/capabilities into account or show where the CT should be?
I see the most similar Victron diagram is the "grid-inline topology" from this link (forum won't let me attach a snip)

Q) would I be able to more battery to maybe 30kW like this ?
Q) would I be able to add more panels (South wall) by adding a second solaredge inverter, assuming a master-slave connection for the solaredge ?
Q) In by ignorance / naivety is there anything massively wrong with this approach ?
Thanks for taking a look
