SolarEdge Technologies will unveil some of its most advanced technological innovations to date at this year’s RE+, including the company’s new bidirectional DC EV Charger. The new charger will enable solar-powered Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) functionalities. The Charger’s DC-coupled architecture is expected to offer several benefits, such as avoiding unnecessary power conversions, often referred to as the triple conversion penalty, enabling faster, more efficient home charging of up to 24 kW.

SolarEdge will also show its new residential SolarEdge Home Hub and Wave Inverters at the trade show. These next-generation inverters include embedded Power Control Systems (PCS), allowing more than 50% larger systems to be installed without costly and time-consuming main panel upgrades (MPUs).

The company will also demonstrate new improvements to the SolarEdge Home installation and commissioning processes, highlighting faster and simpler installations for residential battery and backup systems.

On the commercial front, SolarEdge will bring its new SE-330K Inverter and H1300 Power Optimizer for community solar and Agri-PV applications to Las Vegas. These new products deliver the benefits of DC-optimization and virtual central topology to the small-medium utility-scale market with the unveiling of a new 330-kW Three Phase Inverter alongside the new H1300 Power Optimizer and a solar tracker solution.
