i am house owner looking at installing Solar system for my house. I plan to go for the max size that SEDA can approved which is 12KAC for inverter connect to grid.
my roof does not have any shading issue as it is metal deck and no tall tree of building surrounding. So i plan to go for String Inverter to have easier maintenance in future.
Also, I plan to go with Huawei inverter and wanted to have a hybrid inverter for future so that may be able to hook up a battery after NEM 10 years contract and also if the price of battery is cheaper at that time. However, Huawei inverter either M2 or M5 series can only support hybrid up to their 10ktl model. 12ktl model is not hybrid inverter. I research online and found out that 12ktl-mb0 is a newer model from Huawei that is hybrid for 12KAC. Should I topup 2k for this hybrid model which is for future (unknown) or good to go with either M2 or M5?
I have some questions to ask and hope all sifus here can give your advise
- for Huawei inverter, does anyone know the different between M2 and M5 model? M2 is stated as high current, what does it mean?
- some quote me with 16.xx kwp which is SEDA recommended 1.35 ratio to inverter, some quote me close to 18 kwp which is the inverter limit and some told me Huawei inverter for 12KAC can support up to 17KWP panel only. I plan to go for 18kwp with Huawei 12KAC inverter. Is it possible?
- Can I go with 6 KAC inverter x 2 with 9 KWP panel each and connect back to my DB to served as 12KAC system? If given a choice, 12KAC single inverter unit vs 6KAC x2 inverters, which one is better option?
So many type of solar panel brands in the market, some quote JA Solar, Trina, Longi, Jinko, Am I safe to say they are similar quality? Is Bi-facial good for residential house which install on roof top? In term of reliability, are "brand" i need to beware of?
Sorry for so many questions and happy to see any feedback from anyone. Thanks thanks.
why are you going so big... from a 200 bill to a future 1000 bill equivalent... you going to spend all that power? over capacity means losing money...
