How Much Does a Solar Inverter Cost? [2026 Data]
Solar inverters are a crucial part of your solar energy system. This guide breaks down solar inverter costs so you can estimate the price of your project.
View DetailsMedium Residential Systems (6-10 kW): You'll likely need an inverter between 6 and 10 kW, with costs between $1,800 and $3,500. Large Residential/Small Commercial Systems (10+ kW): These require inverters 10 kW and above, with prices starting around $3,000 and going up significantly depending on the specific application.
The inverter's capacity should closely match the DC size of your solar panels. For example, a 6 kW solar array typically pairs with a 6 kW inverter; however, slightly smaller or larger inverters may be used, depending on the system design.
The DC cables are connected to 19 utility-scale central inverters, each rated at 4 MW ac, giving the PV system a rated AC power output of 76 MW ac, which corresponds to an inverter loading ratio of 1.32. The inverters are made in Europe in a plant that produces 250 of them each year. These inverters are not subject to import tariffs.
The inverters are made in China in a plant that produces 100,000 of them each year and are subject to 25% import tariff. When supplied with an energy storage system (ESS), that ESS is comprised of two pad-mounted lithium-ion battery cabinets, each with an energy storage capacity of 3 MWh for a total of 6 MWh of storage.
