Solar panels produce direct current, but your home runs on alternating current. The inverter makes that conversion and at the same time controls how your installation performs. As the heart of your solar installation, the inverter therefore deserves a well considered choice.

Installing or replacing an inverter
The inverter converts the energy from your panels into usable electricity. The right choice and installation help determine how your system performs.

In Flanders the reversing meter is being phased out. If you have a digital meter, it no longer runs backwards when solar panels feed electricity into the grid: the electricity you draw and the electricity you feed in are recorded separately.
That is precisely why self-consumption is becoming more important: the more solar power you use yourself while your panels are producing it, the less you draw from the grid. With a home battery you store your surplus and use it later, instead of feeding it into the grid. The capacity tariff also rewards consumption that is spread out more evenly: smart control can help you avoid running all your high-power appliances at the same time.
How much you actually gain depends on your consumption, your installation and energy prices, and a home battery does not pay off for everyone. That is why we do not promise a fixed amount. Look into it carefully before you invest.
When an inverter needs replacing
An inverter does not last forever. Error messages, failure or a clearly lower yield can indicate a problem. Anyone wanting to expand their installation with a battery also sometimes runs into an inverter that is not equipped for it.
We assess whether repairing, replacing or adjusting is the best choice, and take into account what you may want to add later.
What we look at
01
Suitable capacity
The inverter has to match your panels and your plans, not just today's situation.
02
Ready for storage
If you want a battery later on, we take that into account when making the choice.
03
Correct monitoring
We make sure you can keep track of the yield and how it is performing.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I know if my inverter is faulty?
- Repeated error messages, outages or a noticeably lower yield can indicate a problem. We investigate the cause on site.
- Can I combine any inverter with a battery?
- Not always. The inverter must be suitable for storage or must be supplemented. We look at the options.
- Do you also install inverters on an existing installation?
- Yes, also with an existing installation from another installer.
