What Is the Difference between Solar Inverter and Hybrid Inverter?

Both solar inverter and hybrid inverter are widely used in converting photovoltaic solar energy into electricity. Some hybrid inverters can also be used for combinations of solar and wind energy, or off-grid and grid-tied applications.


It is well known that the purpose of an inverter design is to convert DC into AC. Notably, to generate electricity using panels, solar inverters are certainly needed.

Even some hybrid inverters can also be used for combinations of solar and wind energy, or off-grid and grid-tied applications.


The broad definition of a solar inverter is not just an inverter. It is not easy to explain its purpose literally because they have differences in their application range, function, structure, technology, and even exterior design.


For example, solar inverters can be pure sine wave inverters/modified sine wave inverters, off-grid solar inverters, or grid-tied solar inverters, single-phase or three-phase solar inverters, and so on.


Therefore, we can understand simply that it is an inverter for photovoltaic solar systems, which is a solar inverter.


Moreover, in most regions, solar inverters are more commonly referred to as battery backup inverters or battery inverters, where electricity produced from photovoltaic solar is stored in battery banks. Later, all electricity is provided to AC/DC loads from the battery-end-connected inverter.


In other words, solar inverter batteries are moving energy from the charger to the load or the grid, and most backup battery inverters can provide AC power in the event of power failure or blackout.


Hybrid Inverter is upgraded versions of solar inverter


It contains the functionality of a solar inverter, which converts DC to AC, and also adds an internal solar controller, such as  MPPT or PWM type. Therefore, accurately speaking, hybrid inverter is the solar inverter with built-in charge controllers. They can also be a combination of off-grid and grid-tied inverters in one machine, with the same description as you call a hybrid inverter.
