Some customers find that the charger can be bulky and take up a lot of room if installed alongside vehicles inside your garage. With that said, make sure to shop around before making the purchase. The cost of one of these EV chargers is around the $1,000 dollar mark, and also depends on where you purchase it from. This is pretty revolutionary, as now you can charge your EV without having to purchase power from the grid.Ī slight downside to this additional feature is that the solar inverter must be a SolarEdge system in order for it to work. SolarEdge recently branched out and created an EV charger that is capable of linking up with their branded solar inverter.
The cost of the SolarEdge optimizers is between $80 and $110, depending on which retailer you decide to purchase them from. A big factor when going for these optimizers is the cost having to attach one to each panel does bump up the cost of the entire array. But after the installation is finished, they work brilliantly with the entire array. Some installers have found them to be a bit of a pain to install. If one panel on the string becomes shaded, it would affect the energy production of the entire string, which isn't great.

In traditional solar installations (sans optimizers), the panels would all be linked in series or what is commonly referred to as a “string”. SolarEdge’s power optimizers are a massive game changer when it comes to installing solar they give you the ability to track how each individual panel is producing and also allow individual panels to be shaded without affecting the whole array.
The SolarEdge inverters also work with the SolarEdge power optimizers. For example, if you had a 7.6 kW unit and had the capability to have a solar array producing 15 kW, the inverter would be able to support it. These inverters also have 100% overload capacity, meaning you can overload your supply. Even in the event that the grid goes down, you'd still be able to use this feature. They have the ability to hook up to the SolarEdge EV charger, giving you the ability to charge your electric vehicle using only the energy generated from your solar array.
They also have many additional features that you may not find on your typical inverter.ĭepending on the size of the inverter, it will cost between $1,650 and $2,110, but it’s built into the cost of your solar panel system. The SolarEdge DC inverters are easily installed, quite good looking (for an inverter), and don’t take up too much room. Solar inverters are used to convert the DC electricity flowing from your solar panels into usable AC power that your home appliances use. We’ve picked three of their flagship items: In this period, the company also shipped more than 334,600 inverters, with a total capacity of more than 4.3GW, more than the 3.6GW of inverters sold in the first quarter of the year, and SolarEdge will be optimistic that its latest products will continue this growth in sales.SolarEdge makes a variety of products for the solar industry. The news follows months of impressive financial results for SolarEdge, which posted record revenues of US$974.4 million in the second quarter of this year. The announcement follows similar news from US solar manufacturer Ampt, which outlined plans to deliver 195MW of string optimisers to an unnamed North American project earlier this week.
The company announced the new products at RE+, the leading renewables conference currently taking place in Las Vegas, and SolarEdge noted that the new inverter will be on display at the company’s booth at the show. “With the industry seeking solutions that improve both scalability and economics for community solar, we anticipate that DC-optimisation will be critical to maximising return on investment and bringing value to investors.” “We are pleased to bring the benefits of power optimisation and high-resolution monitoring to the utility solar segment with the introduction of our new high-power SolarEdge 330kW inverter,” said SoalrEdge CEO Zvi Lando.
