On-grid solar

Start with solar. Add the rest when you are ready.

Microinverters for balconies, roofs and gardens — and a clear path to storage, EV charging and monitoring on the same platform.

Where it fits

Any surface that sees the sun.

The same microinverters work on a balcony railing, a pitched roof, a flat roof or a garden frame.

Plug-in connection must comply with local regulations; permitted power, socket type and registration differ by country.

Grow step by step

Five steps, one platform.

Each step adds to the one before, on the same platform.

A single plug-in unit up to 800 W (such as SolarCore VM800WE-P2 or SolarKit) and PowerCube VA800D may be connected by the owner where local rules allow; where national rules permit higher plug-in limits, SolarCore P4 can also be connected by plug. SolarCore systems on an AC trunk cable, PowerCube VA2000D and above, VB5000D packs, SolarHub, ChargeFlow and EnergyPilot are installed by a qualified electrician. PV input max. 60 V DC — check module Voc at the lowest expected site temperature. *With good signal, a working network and a normal device connection.

Export limits

Zero export where the grid requires it.

In some countries and grid areas, solar power may not be fed into the grid, or only up to a set limit. EnergyPilot sits in the distribution board, measures at the grid connection with clip-on CTs and regulates SolarCore, SolarHub and PowerCube on site — surplus goes to the home, the battery or the car first.

  • Zero export or a set feed-in limit
  • Single-phase VDG-EM-1 or three-phase VDG-EM-3, ±1% accuracy
  • Decides locally and keeps working when the internet is down
  • Third-party inverters can be monitored, but not controlled

Installed by a qualified electrician. Which export limit applies depends on the country and the grid operator.

Rooftop systems

Several microinverters, one AC trunk cable.

On a roof, each microinverter clicks into a T-connector on the AC trunk cable, which runs to its own breaker in the distribution board.

  • Units per branch depend on the model and the cable cross-section
  • SolarCore P4 (four modules per unit) is made for rooftop and garden arrays
  • End cap seals the open end of the trunk
  • 1, 2 and 4-MPPT models for different module layouts
