Inverters – the power center of your solar energy system
An inverter is the key component that connects your solar modules, battery storage and electrical devices. It converts direct current (DC) generated by your solar panels into usable alternating current (AC), providing reliable power for your home, camper van or any off-grid installation.
At Solarkontor, you will find high-quality inverters for every application: compact microinverters for balcony systems, pure sine wave inverters for mobile setups and powerful hybrid inverters for residential systems with battery storage.
What an inverter really does
A modern inverter does far more than simple DC-to-AC conversion. It intelligently distributes power, optimizes efficiency, protects connected devices and – depending on the model – offers full monitoring via app or integrated display. In residential systems, the inverter becomes the core of energy management, deciding when to consume, store or feed excess power into the grid.
Efficiency is a crucial factor. High-quality inverters achieve 95–98 %, ensuring that almost all available solar energy becomes usable electricity. Voltage stability is equally important, especially for sensitive electronic devices used in households, RVs or boats.
How to choose the right inverter
The best inverter for your setup depends on several technical factors. These points help you make the right decision:
- Application: balcony system, home PV setup, cabin, camper van, boat or off-grid system.
- System voltage: 12V for camper vans, 24V for larger mobile systems, 48V for residential or high-power off-grid installations.
- Output power: The inverter should match your PV array and consumption needs. Devices with high starting currents require strong peak power.
- Sine wave quality: Sensitive devices require a pure sine wave inverter for safe and stable operation.
- Safety features: Overload protection, temperature monitoring, short-circuit protection and intelligent cooling.
- Monitoring: Depending on the model, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth or app integration offer full visibility of performance and system status.
Inverter types at a glance
Each system has specific requirements. That’s why Solarkontor offers a wide range of inverter technologies with clearly defined applications:
Microinverters – ideal for balcony solar systems
Microinverters mount directly to the solar module and feed energy into your home via a standard power socket. They are safe, efficient and extremely user-friendly – the perfect match for plug-and-play balcony systems.
Pure sine wave inverters – reliable power for camper vans, boats & off-grid systems
Pure sine wave inverters provide clean, stable AC power, making them the best choice for sensitive electronics and mobile applications. Paired with 12V or 24V battery systems, they are ideal for RVs, boats, garden sheds or small off-grid installations.
Hybrid inverters – the all-in-one solution for residential PV systems
Hybrid inverters combine solar input, grid connection and battery storage management in one device. They manage when energy is stored, consumed or exported, making them the central intelligence of a modern home energy system.
DC-DC converters – efficient voltage conversion for mobile systems
DC-DC converters regulate voltage differences between batteries and connected devices. They are essential for vehicles, boats, chargers or off-grid electronics requiring specific voltages.

FAQ | 6 frequently asked questions about inverters
Which inverter do I need?
It depends on the application: Microinverters are suitable for balcony power plants, pure sine wave inverters for motorhomes, and hybrid systems for home installations.
What is the difference between sine wave and modified sine wave inverters?
Sine wave inverters produce pure electricity, just like from a wall socket – ideal for sensitive devices. Modified models are cheaper, but less precise.
Can I connect an inverter myself?
Small systems (e.g., microinverters) are easy to connect. Larger systems or grid connections should be installed by qualified personnel.
How efficient are modern inverters?
High-quality devices achieve an efficiency of over 95%. The exact value depends on the model and the load.
Can inverters be combined with batteries?
Yes, hybrid and DC-DC inverters are specifically designed to intelligently control PV power, grid power, and battery charging.
How long does an inverter last?
Good devices last 8–15 years, depending on usage and environmental conditions. Regular cleaning and ventilation extend their lifespan.
