Solar Inverters

A U.S. research group is now developing new inverters to protect solar installations from cyberattacks. Hitachi Solar Inverter is a potent example, which being at the heart of Solar power generating system solar inverters is bringing Social Innovation in the Indian power sector by providing the critical technological link which enabled conversion of DC to AC to help solar power distribute through the national grid.
There is a growing list of big name PV companies around the world who have partnered with micro inverter companies to produce and sell AC solar panels, including Trina Solar, BenQ, LG, Canadian Solar, Suntech, SunPower, NESL, Hanwha SolarOne, Sharp and probably more that we haven’t heard of yet.

Can’t say the same for the solaredge unit as I have been spending quite some time analyzing its performance and output I have found that the company is misleading their customers by providing information that the unit is accurate of its operation and capabilities to perform as per the systems design.
Although some inverter manufacturers claim high IP ratings suitable for outdoor installation, the quality and location of the seals and ventilation will greatly affect the ability of the inverter to outlast the many years solar installations are expected to work.

While the panels themselves will take up around 6 square meter surface they do require free surface around them to allow access for installation of another row or future maintenance, so general rule of thumb is that you’ll need about 10 square meters of roof surface per each kW of installed power.
Size wise, the battery needs to have an appropriate capacity to support the charge and discharge currents the inverter will subject it to. Exceeding manufacturer’s requirements in that regard may lead to premature retirement of the battery caused by deterioration of electrolyte or irreversible damage caused by high temperature.
Imeon Energy engineering teams have developed a new way to manage the flow of energy oriented on achieving highest yields, the way to improve the life time of batteries and have put an embedded Artificial Intelligence to work to fine tune your installation.

Over the past 8 months the system is installed I have raised many questions about the performance of the system with mainly the solaredge company as the rest of the system and the panels are definitely over performing so full stars for the sunpower panels there.
Overall: The engineers at solaredge do see all of these issue for now 3 months with no resolution while their manager who we have escalated these issues is finding every excuse in the book to run away from the problem by blaming the electricity company in the area providing a high Grid power which is clearly with in specification of the Australian standards and the unit must be programmed accordingly and not over programmed as found.

For decades AEG Power Solutions has designed and manufactured first choice reliable rectifiers, chargers and DC power supply systems to meet the requirement of all types of industrial applications, operating in the toughest environment thanks to heavy duty design.
The monitoring app is great, but the only downside with our model is that the user (owner) can’t currently reconnect the wifi connection if it drops out – we found this out the hard way when we had to replace our router, requiring a service technician call, but this was provided at no cost by our installer (Solar Energy Answers).
