Easily convert sun energy to electricity with Solar PV Hybrid Inverter

by Comfly Poland Best Solar PV Inverter

Produce free electricity from the sun and store it in a battery to use when needed. It is only possible thanks to an On Off-grid hybrid inverter. It controls and coordinates the operation of both the photovoltaic system & the battery.

Difference Between Traditional & Hybrid Inverter

A traditional photovoltaic inverter is a system that converts the direct current (DC or DC) produced by the photovoltaic system into alternating current (AC or AC) for domestic use. In addition, the inverter also manages the flow of energy between the plant, utilities, and the grid.

A hybrid inverter is an "enhanced" photovoltaic inverter that, in addition to converting direct current into alternating current, can manage and coordinate the flows of electricity from the PV system, the battery, and the grid. The hybrid Solar PV inverter option "decides" whether to send the electricity directly to the user for immediate consumption or whether to store it in the battery. In the same way, it manages the energy coming from the battery or the network to domestic users.

When using a hybrid inverter?

You can install the hybrid inverter on a photovoltaic system with a storage battery and a PV system without a battery. Installing a hybrid inverter allows you to prepare for the subsequent addition of a storage system.

There is a Goodwe 3-phase hybrid inverter. It is for the combined management of energy generated from multiple sources (photovoltaic, wind, etc.) and hybrid inverters that also work as EPS, that is, to provide energy to priority loads even in the event of a power failure from the grid (black-out).

How does a hybrid inverter work?

In the morning a hybrid inverter conveys the energy produced by the photovoltaic modules directly to domestic users, while the excess production is accumulated in the battery if any.
Later in the day, when the battery is fully charged, the excess energy produced is fed into the grid, normally sold to the network operator under the on-site exchange regime.
In the evening, when the modules stop producing energy, the inverter activates the battery, which powers the house for its needs. If the energy stored in the battery is fully used, then the inverter automatically takes action on the withdrawal from the national electricity grid.

The advantages of a hybrid inverter

Complete control of the photovoltaic system and the storage system
Coordinated management of production, networking, and battery usage
Flexibility and customization to the user's needs, thanks to software and remote management and monitoring apps, including Wi-Fi
10kw 3 Phase Hybrid Solar Inverter maximizing self-consumption
Preparation of the photovoltaic system for subsequent addition of storage batteries
Possibility of operation as EPS (anti-blackout) on some models described below
Reduced footprint and saves space
Cost savings for the purchase of a single device.

Choosing a quality and high-tech hybrid inverter guarantees optimal use of the photovoltaic system and the battery. It also allows having a system ready for the installation of the battery at a later time.
