SolarEdge invented the power optimizer which revolutionized the way power is harvested and managed in a solar system.
SolarEdge was established in 2006 and invented an intelligent inverter solution that revolutionized the way power is harvested and managed in a solar PV system. The SolarEdge DC optimized inverter solution maximizes power generation at individual panel level while lowering the cost of energy produced by the solar PV system. SolarEdge entered the Australian Market in 2015. SolarEdge provides a higher level of safety and performance compared to traditional string inverters making it very popular with Australian home and business owners.
KEY INDICATOR
- Individual panel monitoring
- Individual panel optimization (i.e. shade or dirt on one panel will not affect the other panels as in a conventional setup)
- Rapid shutdown of panels in the case of an emergency
- Slightly more energy generation over the lifetime of the system
- A smaller string inverter because the Multi Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is all done at the panel.

Single Phase product overview
Single Phase Inverters with HD-Wave Technology
The SolarEdge single phase inverter with HD-Wave technology breaks the mold of traditional solar inverters. Winner of the prestigious 2016 Intersolar Award and the renowned 2018 Edison Award, the single phase inverter is specifically designed to work with SolarEdge power optimizers and features a standard 12-year warranty extendable to 20 or 25 years.
Because Maximum Power Point Tracking and voltage management are handled separately for each solar panel by the SolarEdge power optimizer, the single phase inverter is only responsible for DC to AC inversion. Consequently, it is a simpler, more cost effective, more reliable solar inverter. The fixed string voltage ensures operation at the highest efficiency at all times independent of string length and temperature.
In addition to its functionality as a DC-optimized PV inverter, the single phase inverter also manages battery and system energy as part of SolarEdge’s StorEdge solution.
Energy Hub1P
The SolarEdge Energy Hub inverter is designed for seamless integration with the SolarEdge Energy Bank. The battery and can connect to extra solar panels for maximized charging performance. Because all SolarEdge products are designed to work together, you get streamlined service and support from one manufacturer.

OPTIMISER
The SolarEdge DC Optimiser
The SolarEdge DC Optimiser is safe, reliable and efficient.
Allows maximum power point tracking for each solar module individually
SafeDC™ automatically shuts down DC voltage whenever the grid or inverter is lost
The SolarEdge DC Power Optimiser is a DC to DC converter which is connected to each solar panel by the installer, turning them into smart panels. DC optimisers increase the energy harvest of solar panels by maximum power point tracking (MPPT) each solar panel individually. They also eliminate solar fires caused by DC arc faults by automatically reducing the DC voltage when the inverter or grid power is shut down. Furthermore, the optimisers monitor the performance of each panel and communicate performance data to the SolarEdge monitoring platform for enhanced, cost-effective panel-level maintenance.
