Solar energy has established itself as an efficient and sustainable solution for generating electricity. One of the technologies that has revolutionized this industry is that of microinverters.

These devices have stood out for their ability to increase efficiency and reliability of residential and commercial photovoltaic systems.

Photovoltaic microinverters are crucial components in solar energy systems, as they play the role of converting DC (direct current) energy generated by solar s into AC (alternating current) energy, used to power devices and buildings.

The main difference between microinverters, string inverters and centralized inverters is in the way they are installed and work.

In conventional systems, a single inverter is used for the entire array of solar s. This means that the efficiency of the entire system or entire string can be affected if a single is not working properly, due to shading, dirt or other problems.

However, the microinverters are installed individually on each solar , which allows each function independently and optimally. This results in significant benefits:

  • Maximizing efficiency: With microinverters, even small problems in a single do not affect the overall system performance. Each operates at its maximum potential, increasing overall efficiency;
  • Individual monitoring: microinverters enable individual monitoring of each solar , making it easier to detect and resolve problems quickly. This results in more effective maintenance and less downtime;
  • Simplified Expandability: adding more s to the system is easier with microinverters, as there is no need to size a string inverter for the new capacity;
  • Shading tolerance: systems with microinverters have greater tolerance to shading, as a shaded does not affect the others, unlike traditional systems;
  • Longevity: the durability and lifespan of microinverters are generally comparable to that of solar s, ensuring a long-term reliable system;
  • Security: Microinverters have the advantage of operating at lower voltages, reducing electrical risks compared to central inverters.

Microinverters represent an important evolution in solar energy technology, making systems more efficient, reliable and easier to manage.

Compared to central inverters, the benefits in of energy production and maintenance outweigh the initial investment in microinverters.

As the solar energy industry continues to grow and evolve, microinverters stand out as a smart choice for those looking to make the most of the sun's clean, renewable energy.

A SAJ is bringing to Brazil the model M2. The microinverter has a maximum input current of 20A, compatible with the highest power modules available on the market. Maximum efficiency 97,50% and high reliability with IP67. This equipment will soon be sold by our partner distributors.
