On Grid/Hybrid Inverters
On-grid inverters, also known as grid-tied inverters, are designed to work with solar panel systems that are connected to the electrical grid. These inverters convert the DC (direct current) electricity generated by the solar panels into AC (alternating current) electricity that can be used by household appliances and fed into the grid. On-grid inverters also allow excess electricity generated by the solar panels to be sent back to the grid, which can result in net metering or credit from the electricity provider.
Hybrid inverters, on the other hand, are designed to work with both on-grid and off-grid solar panel systems. These inverters allow the solar panels to be connected to battery storage systems, so that excess electricity can be stored for later use rather than being sent back to the grid. Hybrid inverters can also be used to power household appliances when there is a power outage on the grid or when the solar panels are not generating enough electricity to meet the household’s needs.
