Kindling hope with the power of the sun
Shifting environmental factors constantly challenge the efficiency of solar arrays; dust, debris and shade can drastically lower power output. With a conventional ‘string’ inverter system, the least-performing module determines the productivity of the entire array. APsystems’ microinverters give more power, independently optimizing the output from each solar module, something that will no doubt be welcome… Read more »
