Less is more: how ANICSUN inverters maximise small solar setups
Boasting about efficiency and performance with an overpowered system or an oversized solar energy solution isn’t all that impressive, its simply an inefficient allocation of the system’s power. However, doing the same with a reasonably sized solar energy solution is actually impressive, since moderately-sized solar energy solutions can sometimes falter, and smaller systems have the tendency of not being able to deliver during crucial times. Which is where the role of the inverter is actually maximised; in ensuring that the energy actually gets delivered to the consumer, the inverter can ensure that even a small system punches way above its weight.
Which is why, in this blog post, we will look at how ANICSUN solar inverters are the perfect piece of equipment for maximising the energy output for small solar energy systems, ensuring that even with a low-power production, all of it or an overwhelming majority of it actually gets to the consumer. This is not what ANICSUN specialises in; but this is certainly something that ANICSUN inverters can deliver on satisfactorily. Lets take a look at what inverters do to better understand how ANICSUN inverters mitigate this issue.
Solar energy inverters: the basic function
A solar energy inverter is arguably the most important part of a solar energy solution, and that is primarily down to the function it provides to the overall system. While even in the previous iterations, when solar inverters did not have any smart functions, inverters still were at the centre of the system. And that is because solar inverters make the energy generated by the solar panels actually usable. The solar panels generate energy in the form of direct current or DC, while home appliances use AC or alternating current. It therefore, falls upon the solar inverter, to actually invert the flow of the current, and switch it from DC to AC and make the energy usable, making it extremely crucial in it’s functioning and ensuring that the energy, efficiency and performance is actually usable by the consumer.
How can smaller systems outperform?
Smaller systems or moderately sized solar energy solutions have a tough job for them, because the system needs to be adequately sized in order to perform satisfactorily. Undersized or underpowered solar energy solutions need to have an extremely efficient solar inverter, ensuring that the energy generated is actually made usable in all of its entirety, rather than losing it to transmission losses or the actual operation of the inverter itself. This is where ANICSUN inverters come in; even with a smaller system or underpowered solar energy system, with the right inverter, the system can actually fulfil the energy requirements of the premises, be it a home or a commercial site.
How does it do that? Well, inefficient inverters can be blamed usually for energy issues within premises equipped with solar energy systems. The solar panels generate however much energy they are rated at, but then some of it is lost to transmission, and some of it is lost to the operating of the inverter, which then sends out around 80 per cent of the generated energy. This contributes to the effect that a system is already underperforming and now is losing nearly a quarter to faulty or inefficient equipment, making a bad situation worse.
How ANICSUN inverters flip the script
For a small solar energy system, the solution usually lies in an extremely efficient solar inverter. And that is what ANICSUN does to maximise the input from a small solar energy system. By performing at the highest levels of efficiency and ensuring that nothing is lost to transmission or operational consumption, the energy output stays the same as from the solar panels, making even an undersized solar energy system feel efficient and competitive, despite the inherent disadvantage that smaller solar energy systems have.
