Individual solar panels in New Zealand cost around $230 for a 440W panel. However, the total system cost includes inverters, mounting systems, and installation.
[pdf] Solar inverters may be classified into four broad types: 1. , used in where the inverter draws its DC energy from batteries charged by photovoltaic arrays. Many stand-alone inverters also incorporate integral to replenish the battery from an AC source when available. Normally these do not interface in any way with the utility grid.
[pdf] Delta''s M80U is the industry''s only 80kW inverter with an optimal cost and performance profile and the highest power density available in a string inverter.
[pdf] A solar inverter costs $2,000 on average, with prices often ranging from $1,000 to $3,000. That said, some homeowners spend as little as $800 or as much as $5,000.
[pdf] For the BMS to communicate correctly with the inverter the battery must be set to the correct Modbus protocol. This can be done on the battery settings page. The inverter manuals have a list of compatible batteries detailing their Modbus protocol and whether they use CAN or RS485 communications.
