Solar Inverter

The Heart of Your
Solar Power System.

A solar inverter is a critical component of any solar power system. It converts the direct current (DC) electricity generated by solar panels into alternating current (AC) electricity, which powers your household appliances and can be fed into the power grid. Acting as a bridge between your solar system and your electrical devices, the inverter ensures seamless and efficient energy utilization.

Types of Solar Inverters

Microinverters

Features

Installed on each solar panel enabling independent operation and monitoring.

Advantages

  • Higher energy efficiency, especially in shaded or complex roof conditions.
  • Allows detailed performance tracking for individual panels.
  • Longer lifespan compared to other inverters.

Ideal For

Systems aiming for maximum efficiency and long-term savings.

String Inverters

Features

A single inverter connects to multiple panels (a "string").

Advantages

  • Lower upfront costs compared to microinverters.
  • Simple design and installation.

Disadvantages

  • Performance drops if one panel in the string is shaded or underperforming.
  • Limited monitoring capabilities.

How Does a Solar Inverter Work?

Channeling DC Electricity

The DC electricity generated by the solar panels is sent to the inverter.

Transformation Process

  • A transformer inside the inverter reduces the voltage.
  • The DC is converted into AC through rapid switching of transistors, feeding the two sides of the transformer.

AC Output

The alternating current is then fed into your home's electrical circuit or exported to the power grid.
