• India’s 2nd largest residential rooftop solar company
introduces next-generation Silicon Carbide (SiC) technology inverters.
• 3 kW and 5 kW single-phase inverter variants to deliver 97.8% conversion efficiency
Hyderabad: Freyr Energy - India’s 2nd largest residential rooftop solar company
has launched a new range of high-performance solar inverters further
strengthening its integrated rooftop solar ecosystem. An estimated 80 million
to 100 million households in India need battery backup power systems to manage
daily grid gaps, voltage drops, and heatwave blackouts. Researched and
developed by Freyr Energy and manufactured by Zenergize – an EV charging and
renewable energy solutions manufacturing company, the new inverters lineup uses
next generation Silicon Carbide (SiC) technology along with seamless
digital monitoring, and comprehensive after-sales support.
The single-phase variants in 3 kW and 5 kW which use
eco-friendly and economical SiC technology have been specifically designed for
Indian homes and operating conditions. The Freyr Energy inverters deliver an
industry leading 97.8% conversion efficiency enabling homeowners to maximize
solar energy generation, improve overall system performance and reduce
operational losses. The on-grid solar PV inverter efficiently converts
the DC electricity generated by solar panels into a stable 230V single-phase AC
output. With inbuilt smart features like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity,
consumers can monitor system performance in real time through the Freyr Energy Solar App.
Additional features include IP65 protection, integrated
safety mechanisms which protect the inverter against short-circuit, overload,
overheating, and surge conditions from lightning or voltage spikes, as well as
MNRE approval, BIS certification, and a 10-year warranty and dependable
long-term performance. Further, the self-cleaning technology, supported by
dust-resistant design, helps reduce dust accumulation and supports consistent
performance with minimal maintenance requirements.
Radhika Choudary, Co-Founder and Director, Freyr Energy, said, “India's rooftop solar sector is
undergoing a significant transformation, as the industry matures, we are seeing
a clear shift in customer demand towards higher backup capacity. Therefore,
with the aim to addresses persistent customer challenges such as energy losses,
fragmented monitoring, and weather-related performance concerns, Freyr Energy
has launched high-performance solar inverters. During periods of low solar
generation, such as cloudy conditions or reduced sunlight availability, the
inverter continuously tracks the optimum voltage and current from the solar
panels using Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology to maximise
energy generation under changing weather conditions. The inverter seamlessly
synchronises with the utility grid by matching its voltage, frequency, and
phase, enabling surplus solar power to be exported whenever available. During periods
of low solar generation, it automatically switches to grid power, ensuring
uninterrupted and reliable energy supply in urban as well as rural
regions.”
Looking ahead, the trajectory of rooftop solar in India
appears closely tied to how quickly costs can be rationalised and ecosystem
gaps addressed. With an increasing number of residential installations across
the country, India's rooftop solar market is witnessing a significant momentum,
driven by rising electricity demand, growing consumer awareness, and government
initiatives such as the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana. As India progresses
towards its target to achieve a total solar capacity of 280 GW by 2030, Freyr
Energy remains committed to delivering high-quality, technology-driven solar
solutions to enable Indian consumers transition to solar energy efficiently.
