SOFARSOLAR – With the rising cost of electricity and the shift toward cleaner energy, more and more people are looking to solar power as an alternative to conventional energy. The increasing maturity of solar power technologies and products makes it possible nowadays to turn residential, industrial and, commercial roofs into solar power installations.
For the end-user, a proper solar power installation not only allows to save energy or protect the environment but could bring up to 25 years of economic benefits. At the heart of the system, the inverter plays a major role, selecting the best inverter for your solar installation is key to ensure a stable income.
Making an informed decision is therefore paramount and necessary when you are looking at an inverter brand.
First, the reputation of the solar inverter brand is a good indicator of reliability and it is the first thing that you should check. Some brands such as SOFARSOLAR are specialized in string and hybrid inverters such as AC coupled energy and HYD storage inverters that are typically used in roof-top installations and storage systems.
SOFARSOLAR specializes in R&D, production, sales, and service of grid-tied inverters ranging from 1kW to 7.5kW (residential), 10kW to 255kW (commercial), and hybrid inverters ranging from 3kW to 20kW.

The second element to look for when you choose a brand is to ensure that their solar inverters are suitable to your solar installation capacity. This is an especially important consideration for smaller residential solar projects.

Zhong Qizheng, vice president of SOFARSOLAR explained that the availability of service support for the inverters is also a critical issue. As a matter of fact, product quality and product service are inseparable. Prompt service is one of the most important things to consider before selecting your solar inverter.
Most inverter manufacturers do not recommend customers to interfere or to try to repair their products, as it will generally cancel the product guarantee but recommend calling a certified technician in case of a problem. It is therefore important that your manufacturer has a good service network in your local area.
