I am part of group reviewing proposals for a ~50kW system.
2 of the reasonable proposals are using Solaredge (For one of them the sales guy says the 20kW inverter - but I don't think that works for a 208V 3-phase system)
The other slightly cheaper proposal uses a string inverter (HiQ inverter - will be mounted on roof)
I would like to use Solaredge - I like the per-panel monitoring. And I like the benefits from per-panel MPPT.
But I'm not sure I could justify the additional cost.
If you were doing the cost-benefit analysis, what benefits would you say there are for a Solaredge system vs. string inverter?
I'm not sure whether it's a 2% additional kwh produced because of per-panel MPPT - or a 5% benefit.
BTW - this will be ~25kW facing East, ~25kW facing West.
