Technical FAQs 4

What size solar inverter do I Need?

Your inverter size should match your solar array's capacity, not your electricity bill. This means your inverter doesn’t need to power your entire home—it just converts whatever your panels generate. Let's say you have a 6kW solar array (twenty 300-watt panels).

How many solar panels can an inverter handle?

To effectively determine the number of solar panels an inverter can handle, you must first assess the size of your solar panel array. The overall capacity of your solar installation is defined by the wattage and number of panels. You can expect that the inverter should match or slightly exceed the combined wattage produced by the solar panels.

How many inverters do you need for a 12 kW solar system?

Inverter: one or two inverters of a combined 10 kW–15 kW A 12 kW solar installation in a farm near Berlin utilized a 10 kW inverter with excellent results—saving a couple of hundred dollars on initial cost and still registering peak output. 3. Equate Load Requirements, Not Panel Watts It's not solely about sunlight—actual usage matters, too.

How does the inverter size calculator work?

Our Inverter Size Calculator simplifies this task by accurately estimating the recommended inverter capacity based on your solar panel power and quantity. By inputting your panel's rated power and number of panels, the calculator produces a recommended inverter power range that aligns with 80-100% of your system’s total DC capacity.
