Combination of a micro-inverter and an optimizer (the Optiverter)
An Estonian company has combined a microinverter and an optimizer (the Optiverter) for panels up to 350 W. It claims that
this solution can provide 30% more energy than traditional micro inverters in partially shaded conditions. The main advantages of the Optiverter are the small number of components and the overall simplicity of implementation. It solves some of the problems of panel power electronic systems (MLPE) such as cost per watt and reliability.
Commercial production is planned
