How do solar inverters work?

While solar panels are often the visual symbol associated with solar energy, the true workhorse behind the scenes is the inverter. When you're transitioning to solar power, selecting the right inverter technology is the most crucial decision you'll need to make. A solar inverter works by taking in the variable direct current, or 'DC' output, from your solar panels and transforming it into alternating 120V/240V current, or 'AC' output. The appliances in your home run on AC, not DC, which is why the solar inverter must change the DC output that is collected by your solar panels.
