2. GROWATT INVERTER
2.1 Overview
Design Overview
House grid:
Energy flows into the house grid. The consumers connected,
for example, household devices or lighting, consume the
energy. The energy left over is fed into the public grid
.
When
the Growatt is not gernerating any energy, e.g., at night, the
consumers which are connected are supplied by the public
grid. The Growatt does not have its own energy meter. When
energy is fed into the public grid, the energy meter spins
backwards.
Public grid:
Energy is fed directly into the public grid. The Growatt is
connected to a separate energy meter. The energy produced is
compensated at a rate depending on the electric power
company.
