White paper: APsystems improves compatibility with Victron storage solution
While APsystems microinverters remain compatible with a wide variety of storage solutions, our engineers took a look at a few microinverter firmware features which could enhance compatibility with storage solution components like Victron's battery charger. By adjusting the communication frequency sent to the microinverters, the charge controller is able to gradually ratchet the amount of solar energy provided to the batteries up or down, as opposed to a simple on/off operation, resulting in a smoother charging process and improved battery life.

PROJECT SPOTLIGHT:
Lowen home and organic family farm, Coldstream, British Columbia
Winner of the APsystems Solar Project of the Year 2017 Award
Helmi and Kornelius Lowen of Coldstream, British Columbia, wanted to eliminate their power bill - or better yet, start getting a check from the power company under the local net-metering program. Working with a leading Canadian installer Got Solar?, they were able to populate three slopes of their farmhouse roof with solar panels powered by APsystems microinverters.
