If the panels are the part of a solar system everyone can see, the inverter is the part that decides how well it actually performs. It converts the DC electricity your panels produce into the AC electricity your home or business runs on – and it is doing that every second of every day, for two decades.
Hayleys Solar supplies string, hybrid and off-grid inverters from manufacturers including SMA, Fronius, Huawei, SolaX and Deye. Which one suits you depends on a single question: do you want backup power? A string inverter is the straightforward choice for a grid-tied system without batteries. A hybrid inverter also manages battery charging and discharging, which is what keeps your lights on when the grid goes down.
Our engineers match the inverter to your system size and your intentions – including whether you may want to add batteries later.
