About Hybrid Menič

Hybrid je hybridný menič navrhnutý pre solárne energetické systémy s batériovým úložiskom energie. Polovodičový materiál z galiumnitridu znižuje straty výkonu počas premeny a podporuje maximálnu účinnosť 98,4 percenta. Algoritmus MPPT prispôsobuje výkon solárnych panelov meniacim sa svetelným a teplotným podmienkam. Bezdrôtový prenos dát zjednodušuje kabeláž a inštaláciu. Mobilná aplikácia zobrazuje výrobu, spotrebu, stav siete a úroveň nabitia batérie a odosiela upozornenia na poruchy. Chladiace rebrá na zadnej strane odvádzajú teplo.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: This hybrid inverter stands out with its efficient conversion and intelligent interaction. The product boasts a conversion efficiency of 98.4 per cent given the Gallium Nitride semiconductor material. This material reduces power losses during conversion, while the MPPT algorithm ensures optimal energy generation from the panels under all conditions. The wireless data transmission further simplifies the installation and facilitates the energy storage system deployment and management.
Dimensions & Packaging: 170*460*540mm
Tags: Inverter, high efficiency photovoltaic conversion, intelligent management, wireless data transmission, effective heat dissipation
Production Technology: The Gallium Nitride semiconductor material with higher thermal and electrical conductivity, which reduces internal power losses during conversion and achieves the max efficiency of 98.4 per cent.
The MPPT algorithm dynamically adjusts the max power of the solar panels, ensuring optimal output under vary light intensities and temperatures.
The densely packed cooling fins on the back provide better heat dissipation, preventing high temperatures from impacting efficiency and the component lifespan.
Design Challenge: It is challenging to optimize the photovoltaic conversion efficiency of inverters and their intelligent management. With the Gallium Nitride semiconductor material, this inverter achieves a maximum conversion efficiency of 98.4 per cent. Wireless data transmission between the inverter and the ESS, as well as other smart home devices, has been established, simplifying the wiring layout during installation and improving flexibility. This has enabled intelligent and unified energy management.
Research: As a device that integrates a photovoltaic power generation system and a battery ESS, this hybrid inverter, with its advantages of comprehensive energy utilisation and saving, intelligent management, and environmental protection, not only satisfies the needs of residential ESSs but also help business and industry explore energy solutions. With the popularity of renewable energy, inverters need to make breakthrough in PV conversion efficiency, intelligent management and user friendliness.
Inspiration: Inspired by a deep understanding of the aesthetics of technology and nature, the main body of the inverter has a silver colour that conveys a sense of technology, delivering users a first impression of avant garde and innovation. Meanwhile, the bottom of the product is shaped like a mountain peak with simple and smooth lines, cleverly combining energy products and natural elements. It gives the overall shape a unique vitality and emphasises the eco- friendliness of renewable energy.
Project Duration: The project started research and development in Beijing in June 2023, and the product was finalised in September 2023. The mass production of the product will be put on line according to the market situation.
Operation Flow: Users can actively monitor realtime data such as the generation, consumption, grid status of the solar power station, and battery level through a mobile app. They can also remotely adjust the operating mode of the inverter. In case of any malfunctions, the app promptly issues fault alerts, conducts realtime fault diagnosis, and provides users with fault codes or reports and diagnostic information, helping users quickly resolve issues.
