Sol-Ark Inverters and Batteries: The Perfect Solution for NEM 3.0
As NEM 3.0 reshapes the solar energy landscape in California, Sol-Ark inverters and batteries emerge as the perfect solution for homeowners seeking to optimize their solar investments. With their battery agnostic design, time-of-use optimization, grid export control, and reliable performance, Sol-Ark inverters empower users to maximize solar savings, reduce electric bills, and achieve greater energy independence.
Battery Agnostic
One of the key advantages of Sol-Ark inverters is their battery agnostic design. This means that homeowners can choose from a wide range of 48V battery chemistries, including both lead-acid and lithium-ion options. This flexibility allows customers to select a battery that aligns with their specific needs, preferences, and budget.
Time-of-Use Optimized
Sol-Ark inverters come equipped with advanced time-of-use (TOU) metering capabilities, enabling homeowners to track and optimize their energy usage in real-time. By leveraging TOU rates, users can strategically charge their batteries during off-peak hours when electricity prices are lower and discharge stored energy during peak hours when rates are higher.
Grid Export Control
Under NEM 3.0 regulations, managing grid export is crucial to avoid exceeding export limits and incurring additional charges. Sol-Ark inverters tackle this challenge head-on with their built-in grid export control feature. By precisely regulating the amount of power exported to the grid, Sol-Ark inverters help homeowners stay within the NEM 3.0 guidelines.
