So, in the case of the 5kW inverter model with 3 MPPT, you can have 10kW of solar panels connected to it. <strong>*But*<\/strong>, in Australia you can only add 33% above the inverter&#8217;s rated capacity and still be eligible for STCs (the &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/panels\/rebate\/\">solar rebate<\/a>&#8220;). Learn why <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/oversizing-solar-arrays\/\">oversizing is a smart move<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Just on MPPT &#8211; it stands for Maximum Power Point Tracking. Multiple MPPT is particularly important when you have solar panels mounted across different roof orientations in order to squeeze the best performance out of a system. Most solar inverters these days have at least two MPPTs. You can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/inverters\/mppt\/\">learn more about MPPT here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The GE Solar Inverter models above come with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gesolarinverter.com\/file\/Limited%20Warranty%20for%20GE-branded%20Solar%20Inverter%20in%20Australia.pdf\">10 year manufacturer warranty<\/a> in Australia &#8211; quite a few inverter manufacturers still only offer 5 years. GE notes a &#8220;coming soon&#8221; feature for the single-phase inverters is consumption monitoring.<\/p>\n<p>As for pricing, that isn&#8217;t clear at this point, but as GE mentions it will be &#8220;targeting the high end of the market&#8221; perhaps they&#8217;ll be pricier than GoodWe&#8217;s own range that tends to be towards the budget end of the spectrum.<\/p>\n<p>Further detail on the GE Solar Inverter range <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gesolarinverter.com\/\">can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>GoodWe + GE = A Good Match?<\/h2>\n<p>GE is an American multinational conglomerate that has been around for a very long time &#8211; its history goes back to 1892 &#8211; and has been active in many sectors other than renewable energy.
