Step 2: The Job of The Inverter
The modules gather solar energy in the form of sunlight and convert it into Direct Current, or DC electricity. An inverter can convert this DC power into Alternating Current, or AC power, which is the type of electricity used in your home.
PV modules are joined together to form a PV Solar Panel system. Large PV systems can be integrated into buildings to generate electricity. The revolutionary SolarEdge DC-optimized system integrates solar energy production with battery storage and smart energy products. Which is all under the control of a single SolarEdge PV inverter.
In any PV system, each module has an individual maximum power point. Differences between modules are unavoidable in PV installations. With traditional inverters, the weakest module reduces the performance of all modules.
With SolarEdge, each module produces the maximum energy, and mismatch-related power losses are eliminated including more PV power, higher system visibility and advanced safety features.
