What is a solar panel optimiser?
A solar panel optimiser is a device used in solar photovoltaic (PV) systems to maximise the energy output of individual solar panels. It is typically installed between the solar panels and the inverter, which converts the DC electricity generated by the panels into usable AC electricity. The main purpose of a solar panel optimiser is to address the issue of panel-level mismatch, where the performance maximising power output of individual panels in an array can be affected by factors such as shading, dirt, or manufacturing variations.
The optimiser works by continuously monitoring the output of each solar panel and optimising the power production at the panel level for maximum efficiency. It achieves this by employing maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technology, which ensures that each panel operates at its maximum power point (MPP). The MPP is the voltage and current combination at which a solar panel produces the highest amount of power. By allowing each panel to operate at its maximum output voltage and MPP, the optimiser minimises power losses. It maximises maximum efficiency in the overall energy production of the entire PV system.
Benefits of using solar optimisers
The benefits of using solar panel optimisers are numerous. Firstly, they mitigate the negative impact of shading on different power ratings of solar panels. Shading from nearby trees, buildings, or other obstructions can significantly reduce the power ratings and output of solar panels. However, with optimisers installed, the shaded panels are isolated from the rest, preventing the power ratings of the entire system from being affected. Secondly, optimisers enable the panels to operate independently, which means that even if one-panel experiences reduced performance due to shading or soiling, the other panels will continue to produce energy at their full potential. This results in increased energy yield and a higher return on investment for the PV system owner.
