What is a Hybrid Inverter?

A Hybrid Inverter referred to as a multi-mode inverter sometimes is an inverter that can manage inputs from both solar power (solar panels), grid power and a battery bank simultaneously.

It charges the batteries with either solar panels or the electricity grid depending on one which is more economical or preferred by you.

In most cases, their capabilities may go beyond this. However, some devices also handle inputs from wind turbines, generators and other power sources.

What does a hybrid inverter do

The main work that hybrid inverter does is to combines a solar inverter and a battery inverter into one component in order have a steady power back-up when there is power failure from the grid.

Types

There are several types of solar power hybrid inverters for different function. They are as follows:

Solar/wind power hybrid inverter: This type of hybrid inverters can work with both solar panels and wind turbines. But it has higher price compare to other types.
On grid/off grid hybrid solar inverter: This will work with both battery and solar panels, when the battery is fully charged, the inverter will start to work with grid tie model. Hence, feed the electric power to the grid and also sell to electric company.
Off grid hybrid solar inverter: Just likes a UPS featuring solar charge controller, charge battery from solar panels or grid. When the power is cut down, it works as an off grid inverter.
