Microinverters – a history and explanationMicroinverters – a history and explanation

In a nutshell, microinverters convert direct current (DC) into alternating current (AC) for the grid directly from each individual solar panel, rather than through a central string inverter system, increasing the productivity, reliability and ease of installation of solar systems. The idea is not a new one, but for decades microinverter technology struggled to get off the ground.
