Solar Inverters

Inverters for Solar Power

No solar energy system is complete without a solar inverter. Though their function as a DC to AC power inverter may seem simple, they are far more than that. As well as being the heart, solar inverters are also the brain of your solar power system. 

They will often include a variety of safety and control mechanisms. These work to ensure that your solar power system is not only working at the highest levels of efficiency possible but also that it will stay at those levels for a long time to come, and that if issues do occur, they do not spread and harm other parts of the system or home.

What inverter you choose will heavily depend on what it is a homeowner is seeking to achieve with their solar energy system, and the size that they want from it, such as choosing a hybrid inverter to use with a battery, or microinverters to make the most of little roof space, or space prone to shading.

Inverter for Solar Project

Solar power inverters have come a long way since the early days of solar. A solar inverter decides the size of the system it can be attached to, and 10 years ago, a 5 kW system would be considered in the very top end of what could be installed. Now, it’s around the midpoint, if not the lower end of inverter sizes that we have available. 

Like all solar energy system components, solar inverters have only become more affordable as time has gone on, and though we only offer the very best in quality, that doesn’t mean our inverters are excessively expensive.

We have inverters available that range all the way from 2 kW all the way up to 29.9 kW, all available for residential installations. So whether you’re looking to add a solar system to a granny flat, or just keep things running during the day, or you’re looking to power your entire home almost exclusively off solar, there are options available for you.

Types of Solar Inverters

The most common types of inverters are string inverters, which are mounted on your wall and connect to all the panels in your system. The majority of inverters that we sell fall under this category.

Another popular type is microinverters, which are small inverters that sit under each panel. These inverters manage each panel individually, resulting in better yields, particularly on challenging roofs or systems subject to shading, as the performance of a single panel will not impact the rest of your system.

Also worth noting are hybrid inverters, which are inverters specifically designed to work alongside solar energy storage systems, which such batteries becoming more and more common, so are these hybrid inverters.

Solar Inverter Manufacturers

We offer inverters from a variety of top-tier international solar manufacturers. We only partner with those whose products we are willing to place our trust in on behalf of our customers, and those that have Australian-based support options, so that our customers are not left high and dry should they need to lodge a warranty claim.

These manufacturers are based all around the world, from Korea and China to Germany and America, wherever they may be located though, we can say with confidence that we have faith in their product quality, and are proud to offer them to our customers.
