The latest model boasts 9.5MW capacity.<\/p>\n<p>SolarEdge\u2019s HD-Wave technology significantly reduces the size and weight of an inverter&#8217;s magnetics through advanced digital processing. The company says this technology increases reliability and optimises the performance of solar power systems to reach an inverter efficiency of 99%.<\/p>\n<p>HD-Wave has been available in Australia since around the middle of last year.
