So, What is a Solar Inverter for Sunshine Coast Homes?
A solar inverter is one of the most important parts of a solar system. The inverter converts energy captured from solar panels into usable electricity for your home or business. At Logic Solar, we are the experts in solar panels Sunshine Coast turns to for their complete solar installation needs. Below, we look at how solar inverters work and some of the different types available.
How Does a Solar Inverter Work?
A solar inverter takes in the variable direct current (DC) energy from your solar panels and transforms it into alternating 120V/240V or AC energy. This is essential as home appliances run on AC. Modern inverters, such as a Fronius primo inverter, offer a range of innovative features, including real time monitoring of energy consumption, Wi-Fi control and automated export of power back into the grid.
Battery Inverters
A battery inverter is ideal if you are considering fitting battery storage into your solar system. You may also opt for these inverters if you want to keep the battery separate from your solar panels and run it through a different inverter. A battery inverter converts your battery power into 230V AC and feeds it into your switchboard instead of grid power where possible.
Hybrid Inverters
Hybrid inverters, such as the hybrid Fronius primo inverter allow you to connect batteries to your solar system, providing a sophisticated backup power solution. A hybrid Fronius primo inverter offers simple and flexible installations that can supply the entire household and switch the backup power if the grid fails.
Central Inverters
A central inverter is huge and is generally used for large scale commercial or industrial systems requiring hundreds of kilowatts. They resemble a large metal cabinet and can handle around 500kW of power.
Micro Inverters
Micro inverters, such as Enphase micro inverters, are the opposite. These super small devices are the size of a book and are ideal for residential applications. Homeowners can enjoy an elegant, optimised solution that doesn’t take up too much room on the wall of their homes.
