Technical FAQs 4

What is inverter mode for solar self-consumption?

The inverter mode for solar self-consumption allows homeowners to store excess solar power during the day and use it in the evening, reducing dependence on the grid and lowering utility bills.

How do Growatt energy storage inverters work?

Growatt's energy storage inverters utilize intelligent mode-switching capabilities between on-grid and off-grid operation modes, with multiple customizable working modes to suit the demands of different residential needs. a. Load-First Mode

Why should a home energy storage system be paired with hybrid inverters?

️ Risk of Power Outages: In grid-connected PV systems without batteries, inverters must shut down during outages for safety reasons, leaving homes and businesses powerless. Home energy storage systems, especially those paired with hybrid inverters, support a variety of real-world applications: 1. Maximizing Self-Consumption

What is PV generation & how does it work?

Logic: PV generation is used to charge the battery first, then supply household loads. The remaining power is exported to the grid. Ideal for: Ensuring backup availability and time-of-use arbitrage (charging at low rates, discharging at peak rates). Homes seeking to leverage time-of-use pricing or maintain full batteries for outage preparedness.
