Many in the solar industry feel that overbuilding, or designing a photovoltaic array with a DC capacity greater than the AC rating, is not feasible or even detrimental due to inverter clipping. Recently, several top inverter manufacturers have introduced products that were designed to be overbuilt. Why is this? It could well be in response to project economics and / or capacity caps in certain locales. In this webinar we will explore the benefits and obstacles to overbuilding, more specifically the desired balance of productivity versus demand, and the cost basis in terms of kWh delivered.

By attending this webinar, you will:

Understand what “overbuilding” is, how it relates to your inverter’s power production, and what the benefits are
Know what makes it possible to overbuild on certain inverters, and what the limits are
Understand why overbuilding is helpful to solar installers and residential or commercial solar end users
