  1. Solar Energy Relies On Micro Inverters To Keep The Lights On Each solar panel has a microinverter connected to it. The advantage of this is that if a panel is not receiving any energy the whole supply is not affected. Each panel and micro converter are working independently capturing direct current and converting it immediately to alternating current. Microinverters are the most expensive component of the solar system, and they are the one part that could potentially fail. The micro-inverters have warranties that are the same as the solar panels and that is up to 25 years. If the panels last so should the micro inverters. A benefit to installing solar panels that use micro-inverters is that some manufacturers are now connecting the micro-inverters to the panel before it gets shipped to suppliers and installers. The advantage of this integration is that when it comes to installing the time needed is much less as half the job is already completed. The panels need only be wired to each other, and the system will be ready to use. Microinverters are placed on each panel which means that the performance level of the panels can be monitored and tracked via a smartphone. If the electricity output is not at the level, it should be a notification will be sent and the homeowner can check the panel to see what could be disrupting the performance of the panel. Usually, the panel is obstructed in some way, debris from trees or plants, bird droppings, other various items that could have found their way onto the roof panel. It also is a way of being notified if the equipment is faulty and needs to be repaired or replaced. A great feature of the microinverter is that it is independent and converts DC to AC sending electricity to the grid. Whether all the panels are at optimal performance or not each is independent and does not rely on the overall system to provide electricity. These microinverter systems are best suited to roof types that are not simple and clear they may have some twists and turns or lots of angles. The fact that some panels might not be capturing any sun rays does not compromise the whole system it still carries on gathering watts.

  2. Solar systems are not cheap having one installed is a costly investment. Choosing to use micro inverters a homeowner can add to the system when funds are available. There are no time constraints when the need arises the panels can be ordered. Another benefit of these micro-inverters is that the solar system is not reliant on one inverter which is why it is so easy to add to in the future. The installer will simply bring more panels and wire them into the existing system. There are some disadvantages to microinverters and the most obvious is the expense, each panel has a micro inverter which is very pricey. If the microinverter is not integrated into the panel, then each panel will individually need to be connected to an inverter. The time factor for labour is what starts to add up and push the budget up. Microinverters are the most complex part of the system and are most likely to have issues at some point. It would be more cost-effective to use a string inverter that would be easy to monitor. Microinverters are the best choice to install when the roof has a tricky layout or trees cause the shade to cover the roof. For battery storage, microinverters are not suitable the most logical choice is to use DC power optimizers instead of microinverters as it will be more efficient. Microinverters convert DC to AC whereas hybrid inverters or power optimizers work in DC, so it makes sense to choose them for battery storage. Each solar panel has a microinverter installed behind it and this means there is a lot of electrical equipment on the roof. The installers confirm that there is surge control on these components however it is still suggested that extra lightning protection be considered.
