Grid-Tie Inverters

Grid-Tie inverters are simply inverters which are connected to the grid. Without getting too technical, these inverters produce a pure sine wave that is congruent with the AC waveform produced by the grid.

This allows you to send any unused, surplus solar electricity your system has generated back into the grid, which you may or may not receive a feed-in tariff for.

In the majority of cases and for most states, it’s a requirement that the inverter you install is grid-tied, whether it’s string, hybrid, or micro.

Off-Grid Inverters

Like standard string inverters, off-grid inverters are responsible for the conversion of DC electricity generated by your system’s panels into AC electricity that can be used by the appliances in your home.

Unlike standard string inverters however, they do not have the ability to export excess solar electricity into the grid. Off-grid inverters are used in either remote areas, or where the homeowner wants to separate entirely from the grid.
