[RE-wrenches] Enphase Application

[Jason Lombard]

But don't forget the string combiner/fusing box plus DC disconnect, plus
monitoring...I know it will lean towards Enphase by a good spread
because I did a price comparison for a number of array sizes, and string
inverters always were more. The difference was from $1000 to $5000
depending on system size and increased as the system got larger.

Humm...

14000 kw / 200w mod = 70 mods = 70 micro inverters,  70 * $161 = $11,270
plus $635 EMU = $11905 cost for inversion

Verses

2 x 7.5 kw Fronius inverter = 15000 kw,  2 inverters * $3877 = $7754
cost for inversion

That's a $4151 delta on inversion cost, a 53% increase over standard
string inverters. No experience needed.

Deigning a 14 Kw system that has partial shading issues and am
considering Enphase, what has been your (anybody's) experience with
Enphase.........
