Solar inverter prices in Harare.

All solar-powered systems require solar inverters to operate. A solar inverter is a device that converts direct current (DC) generated by solar panels or other alternative sources, into alternating current (AC) for use in industrial, commercial, and residential purposes. Solar inverter prices are affected by the type of inverter, the brand, and where you are getting it from. However, you need to understand the types of inverters available in Harare. Understanding this information will enable you to make a good decision when purchasing your inverter. This article is going to help you have an insight into solar inverter prices and their types.

Types of solar inverters

To start with, we recommend our customers to use pure sinewave inverters to power their appliances. This is because the power from a pure sinewave solar inverter is similar to that supplied by the Utility. It enables devices such as microwave ovens, game consoles, fans, fluorescent lights and answering machines to run quietly without distortion or disturbance. These types of inverters are also safe and stable to operate in a number of unfavorable conditions, such as excessively high or low temperatures and over and under-voltage.

In contrast, we discourage our customers to buy modified sinewave solar inverters because the power that comes from these inverters is a bit distorted from the one that comes from Utility. It is also important to note that modified sinewave solar inverters can also interfere with the proper functioning of televisions sets and digital clock radios, as well as important medical equipment. Although they are a bit cheaper than pure sinewave inverters, modified sinewave solar inverters aren’t as robust and do not guarantee uninterrupted power.

At this point, we have established that you would rather purchase a pure sine wave inverter than a modified sinewave inverter. Still, there are two types of pure sinewave inverters available in the market. These are high-frequency inverters and low-frequency inverters.

High-frequency pure sine inverters.

Evidently, high frequency pure sinewave inverters have become the most preferred inverters because of their favorable and affordable prices. The most common brands in Harare are Phocos, Mecer, Synapse, Must, 5-Star, Rebel as well as Growatt. These inverters cost around $130 to $200 per KVA. For example, the table below shows the prices of these inverters at Taqon Electrico.

Low-Frequency Pure Sine Inverters

Unlike the high-frequency pure sinewave inverters stated above, the low-frequency pure sine inverters are more expensive because they operate more stably. They are more reliable and have a stronger overload capacity and shock resistance. However, they have problems of being large in size and have lower efficiency.  The most common brands under these types of inverters are Victron, Outback, and Schneider.  There are also more affordable brands like   Sukam, Microtek, Must, and Luminous. The premium brands like Victron, Outback, and Schneider costs about $360 to $600 per KVA. The table below shows the prices of these inverters at Taqon Electrico.

Furthermore, the affordable low-frequency pure sine wave solar inverters, they cost $ 150 to $175 per KVA. The table below shows the prices of these solar inverters available at Taqon Electrico.
