MICRO-INVERTERS

Picture
The Traditional Approach An inverter is a power converter that converts direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC). In a solar module installation, the

inverter performs two key functions: it performs the DC to AC conversion, and it optimizes the modules' Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT). Traditional solar energy installations deploy a single centralized inverter to convert the DC output from multiple solar modules into AC power.

The Enphase Approach The Enphase Microinverter System is a fully integrated device that converts the DC output of a single solar module into grid-compliant AC power. This integrated system maximizes energy harvest, increases system reliability, and simplifies design, installation and management.


Productive 
  • Per-module Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) contributes to energy harvest gains of 25%.
  • With Enphase Microinverters, the modules are resilient to dust, debris, and shading.
  • Enphase Burst Mode technology provides greater production in low-light conditions.
       Reliable
  • No single point of failure.
  • The Microinverter provides continuous monitoring of the performance of each PV module.
  • Soft switching reduces component stress.
  • Quick and simple installation.
  • No central or string inverter to install or design.
  • The system provides 24/7 monitoring and management for each module.
The Enphase Microinverter system is the first commercially-available microinverter system for residential and commercial solar PV applications.

- Mike Shields, Owner

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SAY

  "Mike and Scott came over and in just over an hour had my new generator hooked up and safely supplying my entire house with emergency back-up power. They also took the time to explain the procedure of transferring power during the next power failure, tested the system after installation by monitoring power consumption of my house's lights and appliances, and they made sure I knew the limits of what I could run on generator power. I highly recommend their professional services." 

-Michael M.  (Oroville Ca.)
We were not only pleased with them as electricians during our new home construction, but we called them back, after completion, to install solar panels.

We would highly recommend them to family and friends!
