How much power generation efficiency can be improved by reducing the losses of solar inverters?

2025.08.18

Reducing the losses of solar inverters can improve the power generation efficiency, which is related to the original performance of the inverter, the consumption reduction measures adopted, and the system operating conditions, usually by about 1% to 5%.


For example, studies have shown that replacing traditional silicon-based IGBTs with silicon carbide MOSFETs in 5kW off grid solar inverters may increase conversion efficiency by about 3% to 5%. By replacing traditional silicon diodes with silicon carbide anti parallel diodes, the overall conversion efficiency of the inverter can be improved by about 1 percentage point. If it is combined with fast IGBT and optimized for the driving circuit, the overall conversion efficiency of the inverter can be improved by more than 2 percentage points.


Moreover, taking a 500kW inverter as an example, if the conversion efficiency is improved by 1%, the daily effective power generation can be increased by 4 hours, and an additional 20 kWh of electricity can be generated per day, accumulating nearly 7300 kWh of electricity per year.
