String Inverter: This is the most common and cost-effective type of inverter. It works well if you don't have any encroaching shade from nearby trees or a big chimney, and all of your solar panels are facing the same direction. However, a single solar panel with a drop in energy production, such as when shading occurs, can decrease the power production for the entire string of panels.

Microinverter: These are small units built into each individual solar panel that convert power. This gives each panel the ability to function at peak performance, independent from its neighbors. Microinverters also enable you to monitor the performance of each individual panel.
Power Optimizer: This type of inverter enhances string inverter performance. It handles DC to DC and optimizes or conditions the solar panel's power.
Central Inverter: This is a large-scale string inverter. A string of solar panels forms a circuit where DC energy flows from each panel into a wiring harness that connects them all to a single inverter.
Battery Inverter: This type of inverter connects the battery to the system. It is used in solar systems that include a battery storage component.
Hybrid Inverter: This is an on-grid and off-grid solution. It combines the functionality of both a string inverter and a battery-based inverter.
