The role of three-phase photovoltaic inverter

Three-phase inverters improve renewable energy systems by offering better power quality. They also lower current jumps and voltage issues.They meet the big power needs of modern industries and commercial areas better than single-phase inverters.Though they’re bigger and need more cooling, their productivity and efficiency are unbeaten. Rethinking the role and capability of the inverters can foster the mass adaption of GCPVS and equally help to create and support a more reliable grid. IMS research has stated that smart PV inverter shipments will reach 27 GW by 2015 – accounting for more than half of the PV inverter market and up from 20% in 2010 [121].
