Technical FAQs 4

What is an AC-coupled battery storage retrofit inverter?

As an AC-coupled battery storage retrofit inverter, it can effectively upgrade an existing single-phase or three-phase on-grid PV system into an energy storage system by adding a battery. Max. Continuous Charging / Discharging Current (A)

What is a retrofit inverter in a photovoltaic system?

The retrofit inverters only manage the storage systems and are mainly used in existing photovoltaic systems to keep the system configuration unchanged. In this case, the retrofit inverter of the storage system and the photovoltaic inverter are two distinct machines where the power of the storage is added to the power of the photovoltaic.

What is a goodwe AC-coupled retrofit inverter?

These GoodWe AC-coupled retrofit inverters created by combining the following key elements into a single unified unit: power inverter, a battery charging and discharging function, the BMS (battery management system) communications and the bypass and backup functions.

Do battery inverters convert 12V DC to 230V AC?

Battery inverters, converting 12V DC to 230V AC, play an important role in the operation of a PV system: PV systems generate direct current (DC) which must be converted into alternating current (AC) for use in homes, businesses, industry, and for feeding into the utility grid. This is the job of PV inverters.
