Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between an off-grid inverter and a hybrid inverter?
An off-grid inverter works independently from the grid and requires batteries. A hybrid inverter connects solar, batteries, and the grid for flexible energy management.
Do off-grid inverters work during load shedding?
Yes. Off-grid inverters continue supplying power using solar and battery energy.
Do hybrid inverters provide backup power?
Yes. When paired with batteries, hybrid inverters automatically supply power during grid outages.
Do I need batteries for a hybrid inverter?
Batteries are optional, but required if you want backup power or energy storage.
Which inverter is better for homes in South Africa?
Hybrid inverters are ideal for most homes due to load shedding backup and solar savings, while off-grid inverters suit remote locations.
