Maximum Power Point Tracking (mppt)
At the heart of the Voltage Optimiser's functionality is Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology. Each solar panel has a point at which it can produce maximum power output, determined by current and voltage. This point can vary widely due to a variety of factors, including temperature, sunlight intensity, and shading. The voltage optimizer continuously monitors the voltage and current output of each solar panel and uses algorithms to adjust the load to maintain operation at this optimal point. Unlike traditional systems where the inverter performs MPPT for the entire string of panels, the voltage optimizer does this at the module level, ensuring maximum output for each panel regardless of the performance of the other panels in the array.
