SolarEdge HD-Wave 5.0kW Solar Inverter - Single Phase with SetApp

The SolarEdge HD-Wave 5.0kW Solar Inverter redefines inverter technology, combining innovative design with industry-leading performance. Specifically designed to work with SolarEdge power optimisers, this single-phase inverter maximises energy production, simplifies installation, and offers unparalleled reliability. With a record-breaking 99% efficiency and cutting-edge HD-Wave technology, it’s the ideal choice for residential solar systems.

SolarEdge’s Innovative Inverter Topology

Unlike traditional inverters, the SolarEdge HD-Wave handles Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) and voltage management at the module level through power optimisers. This allows the inverter to focus solely on DC to AC conversion, resulting in a simpler, more cost-effective, and highly reliable solution. The fixed string voltage ensures optimal efficiency at all times, regardless of string length or temperature variations.

HD-Wave Technology: A New Era for PV Inverters

Utilising advanced distributed switching and powerful DSP processing, the HD-Wave technology synthesises a clean sine wave, reducing the need for bulky magnetics and cooling elements. The result is a compact, lightweight inverter that is easier to ship, store, and install. With a market-leading 99% efficiency, it generates more energy, providing a superior return on investment (ROI).
