Solinved

Inverters are one of the most important components at the heart of solar energy systems. Inverters convert direct current (DC) from solar panels into alternating current (AC), making them suitable for use in homes, businesses, and industrial facilities. However, not all inverters are the same.

There are different types of inverters depending on the application area, energy needs, and system structure. Solinved provides maximum efficiency, safety, and durability with its on-grid, off-grid, and hybrid inverter solutions developed for systems of varying sizes.

In this article, we will examine inverter types, their operating principles, and the applications they are used in, along with Solinved's innovative energy solutions.

What is an Inverter?

An inverter is a device that converts DC electricity from solar panels into AC electricity used in homes and businesses. This allows the energy generated from the panels to be used directly, transferred to the grid, or stored in batteries.

Modern inverters not only perform energy conversion;

Monitors system performance,

Optimizes energy production,

Detects fault conditions,

Offers remote control.

Solinved inverters maximize energy production from panels thanks to MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) technology.

Inverter Types

Inverters used in solar energy systems are generally divided into three main categories:

1. On-Grid Inverters

This type of inverter operates integrated with the grid. The energy from the solar panels is converted to AC by the inverter and transferred to the grid.

Operating Principle:

The energy produced during the day is primarily used in the building.

If there is excess energy, it can be sold back to the grid (through a net metering system).

The system also shuts down when the grid power is cut off (for safety reasons).

Areas of Use:

Home-type solar energy systems

Offices and commercial establishments

Projects that sell energy to the grid

Solinved Solutions:

Solinved's on-grid inverters stand out with their high-efficiency MPPT modules, remote monitoring features, and low-loss energy conversion.

2. Off-Grid Inverters

Off-grid inverters are used to generate energy in areas where there is no grid connection. The energy generated in these systems is stored in batteries and used when needed.

Operating Principle:

The energy from the panels is converted from DC to AC by the inverter.

Excess energy is stored in lithium batteries.

The energy in the batteries is used at night or on sunny days.

Areas of Use:

Rural areas, mountain chalets, and camping areas

Farmlands far from the power grid

Solar irrigation systems

Telecom and security infrastructures

Solinved Solutions:

Solinved off-grid inverters provide uninterrupted power with their high energy storage compatibility and smart charge control system. They are also optimized for solar drives and agricultural applications.

3. Hybrid Inverters (Smart Inverters)

Hybrid inverters combine the features of on-grid and off-grid systems. They can operate both integrated with the grid and provide uninterrupted power with battery backup.

Operating Principle:

Energy generated during the day is first used in the building.

Excess energy is stored in batteries.

When the grid goes out, the system automatically switches to battery power.

MPPT technology achieves maximum efficiency.

Areas of Use:

Home and villa systems

Small businesses and offices

Areas with frequent power outages

Backup energy support in industrial facilities

Electric vehicle charging systems

Solinved Solutions:

Solinved hybrid inverters offer smart energy management, remote monitoring, and full control with lithium battery integration.
Additionally, Solinved Charge provides energy storage and inverter integration in electric vehicle charging systems.

Other Inverter Types

Micro Inverters

Panel-based energy management is achieved using separate inverters for each panel.

Advantage: Shading or panel failure does not affect the entire system.

Application: Small-scale rooftop systems, apartment projects.

Power Inverters (Portable Systems)

Converts DC batteries to AC in portable energy systems.

Application: Caravans, boats, mobile energy solutions.

Things to Consider When Choosing an Inverter

System Capacity: The inverter's power should be compatible with the panel capacity.

Efficiency Rate: MPPT-supported inverters should be preferred.

Energy Storage Compatibility: Inverters with battery integration are more flexible.

Remote Monitoring: Performance monitoring and fault management are easier.

Brand Assurance and Service Network: Preference should be given to brands like Solinved that provide domestic production and technical support.
