Microinverters

Microinverters are increasing in popularity for home solar systems. Microinverters use PV rays to change DC into AC. Unlike string inverters, there is no use for a separate central inverter. Each individual panel will have a microinverter installed on to maximize energy conversion. In addition, they also lessen the severity of the negative impacts of partial or complete shading. Next Energy Solar uses top-of-the-line APS Microinverters. Microinverter technology individually monitors and maximizes power generation for each module in the system. One APS microinverter handles two PV modules, lowering installation and balance-of-system costs.

APS Microinverter Advantages

• APS is ranked No.1 in technology and shipping of dual microinverters
• APS is ranked No.2 in global market share among top microinverter suppliers by shipments in 2013. (Source: GTM Research)
• APS developed the world’s first 3-phase microinverter proprietary chip-based architecture which ensures maximum efficiency
• APS microinverters come with a 90 percent efficiency guarantee, with up to 25 percent more in energy harvesting which is 3-5 percent more efficient than string inverters

Racking System

Next Energy Solar uses a proprietary designed triple layered racking system which has gone through rigorous tests to make sure it can withstand the extreme climates to eliminate the potential of weather-related damages. Our in-house design and engineering team makes sure that the plans are structurally safe, completing a structural analysis of the design and producing electrical blueprints with their stamp of approval.

Racking System Advantages

• We employ a triple-layered racking system which is thicker and stronger than any other racking system currently on the market
• Utilizes flashing to prevent any water leakage to ensure that your house will be leak-proofed from the weather climates of Canada
• 20 year warranty

24/7 Home Monitoring System

Networked with the advanced APS Communicator (ECU), the APS Monitor (EMA) promptly detects any performance issues in your solar array, pinpointing the location and providing the precise guidance for necessary maintenance. The APS Monitor monitors and analyzes each solar module and microinverter.

Monitoring System Advantages

• Remote access to the solar system
• Real-time reporting
• Graphs system solar output overtime to boost troubleshooting and easily track how much money you are making
