6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic inverter disassembly and evaluation standards]

Which inverter is required for a combined PV and storage system?

Combined PV and storage system topologies will generally require a bi-directional inverter, either as the primary inverter solution (DC-coupled) or in addition to the unidirectional PV inverters (AC-coupled).

What is a sustainability standard for photovoltaic modules & inverters?

The Sustainability Standard for photovoltaic modules and inverters is a set of product sustainability performance criteria and corporate performance metrics that exemplify sustainability leadership in the market.

What is a PV standard (PV Module and PV Inverter)?

The Sustainability Leadership Standard for PV modules and PV inverters provides a framework and standardized set of performance objectives for manufacturers and the supply chain in the design and manufacture of PV module and PV inverter components.

What is a photovoltaic inverter test?

Tests cover the inverter operation, performance and safety, the photovoltaic array installation, the system operation and applicable instrumentation. The tests described are suitable for inverter and/or system acceptance purposes or can be performed at any time for troubleshooting or to evaluate inverter/system performance and operation.

What happens if a micro-inverter is not used in a PV system?

If micro-inverters are not used, the PV system will have both AC and DC components. The DC system determines system power capacity and energy production, whereas the inverter and the AC system has the greatest impact on system reliability.

What is the IEC standard for photovoltaic system performance monitoring?

A set of monitoring Standards has been produced by the IEC, titled Standard for Photovoltaic system performance monitoring2. The focus of the IEC standard is on the electrical performance of PV systems, and it does not address hybrids or prescribe a method for ensuring that performance assessments are equitable.
