Features:
Based on SolarEdge’s HD-Wave technology, the world’s most installed residential inverter, the Genesis gives you a cost-effective solution that fits any shape of roof and any budget. It combines the traditional SolarEdge benefits such as DC-optimised production, advanced safety and long-term warranties with new levels of convenience giving you easier designs and faster installations.
For systems up to 6.7kW DC (with a 5kW Genesis inverter), only one PV string is needed with just one DC isolator. That’s as simple as it gets – especially when installed with SolarEdge smart panels. As with any SolarEdge system, you’re free to design without any restrictions regarding panel type, orientation, or azimuth. Installers can continue to leverage SolarEdge’s panel-level visibility for remote system monitoring and troubleshooting, while mySolarEdge gives homeowners a Dashboard view to simply track their system production and consumption (with an external energy meter).
More about SolarEdge:
Founded in 2006, SolarEdge Technologies is headquartered in Israel and has offices in ten other countries around the world including Australia. Today SolarEdge is undoubtedly the global leader in the DC power optimizer market and is traded on the NASDAQ. The company has invented a ground-breaking type of module-level electronics for solar photovoltaic (PV) harvesting and monitoring systems for all shapes and sizes of solar installations, from residential to commercial and utility-scale plants. SolarEdge’s stand-out product solution is their optimized inverter system which maximizes and improves power output at each individual PV panel. Together with SolarEdge’s cloud-based monitoring platform, the performance of your solar system is trackable with ease.
Since beginning commercial distribution in 2010, over 2.5 GW of SolarEdge products have been installed in solar PV arrays in over 90 countries around the world. The company has won several awards for its innovative products, including an SPP (Solar Power Portal) Award in 2015 and the Solar Industry Award in 2014. Manufacturing mainly takes place through a partnership with Flextronics, a global electronics manufacturing services provider. Another exciting partnership was announced in late 2015 when SolarEdge products became compatible with the Tesla Powerwall battery system. SolarEdge offers impressive warranties and excellent customer support through its Australian office.
