Single-Phase Hybrid Inverters

Single-phase hybrid inverters combine solar charging, battery storage and AC utility power in one unit, so a household can store PV energy for night-time use, feed surplus into the grid, or run appliances straight from the battery when demand is high. The priority given to each power source can be programmed, and the inverter switches automatically to reserved battery power during a power cut or after dark.

This range covers Voltasol and Solis models from around 3kW up to 8kW, with lithium-ion battery compatibility and Wi-Fi monitoring on most units. Some are hybrid inverters with built-in MPPT solar charging, while others are AC-coupled chargers for adding storage to an existing PV system.

They suit homeowners looking to cut reliance on grid power and installers speccing single-phase domestic storage systems, with the choice between models coming down to output power and whether MPPT solar charging is built in or handled separately.
