Redback Hybrid Inverter
A smart inverter with ample brainpower for high-tech automated homes and microgrid systems.
The inverter is another crucial part of your solar energy system. It’s the part that converts the energy collected from your solar panels into usable power for your home or stores it in your battery for use at night. There are three main categories of inverters - solar panel only, hybrid, and microinverter/optimiser systems.
The main consideration when it comes to choosing the right solar inverter is whether your home is shaded (uses microinverters/optimisers) and if you want to include a battery. If you do, battery compatibility is critical as some inverter brands simply won’t work with certain batteries.
You’ll also want to check your solar inverters warranty. Most inverters have a warranty between 5 and 10 years.
If you are buying panels and a battery, a hybrid inverter is more cost effective and more efficient than the alternative (panels + standard inverter + battery inverter + battery).
If you have a shaded roof, consider for a microinverter or panel optimiser inverter because they allow each panel to act independently of the others when producing power. It’s easy to see why this is a plus - if one panel is shaded, the others aren’t affected.
All inverters show how much power they make on the unit itself, but there are better monitoring options that allow you to observe performance on your phone or computer. Shop for inverters that show your home’s energy use, solar power production, and if you have a battery, the state of the battery for a holistic approach to solar monitoring.
