The inverter injects electricity into the grid by converting the direct current (DC) generated by the solar panels into alternating current (AC), compatible with the grid’s electrical system. This process involves several steps: first, the inverter converts direct current to alternating current; Then it synchronizes the AC current with the grid voltage and frequency to ensure compatibility.
Once synchronized, the inverter allows the flow of electricity from the solar panels to be injected into the grid, thus contributing to the overall power supply.
Injecting electricity into the grid works in the same way. The inverter generates alternating current from the direct electricity produced by the solar panels. It then ensures that the alternating current generated matches the characteristics of the network, including voltage and frequency. After synchronization, the inverter channels the alternating current to the grid, where it is distributed and used by other consumers.
The network manager monitors and manages the flow of this energy to ensure stability and balance within the network.
Injecting energy into the grid involves several key processes. Solar panels produce direct current, which is then converted to alternating current by the inverter. This AC power supply is adjusted to match the grid voltage and frequency. Once synchronized, the energy is transferred to the grid via the inverter and the amount of energy fed into the grid is monitored.
This energy can then be used by other users on the grid, contributing to the overall energy supply.
A grid-connected inverter works by converting DC electricity from solar panels into AC electricity that matches the grid voltage and frequency. It constantly monitors network conditions to ensure proper synchronization. When the conditions are met, the inverter injects alternating current into the grid.
The inverter also includes safety features to disconnect from the grid in the event of a power outage or system problems, protecting both the grid and the solar system.
Not all electricity produced by photovoltaics is necessarily sent to the grid. Depending on the system configuration, some of the energy generated may be used directly by the home or business where the panels are installed, especially if there is no energy storage. Excess energy not used on site can be injected into the grid.
In some systems with battery storage, energy can be stored first and then used later or fed into the grid when the battery is full.
