AC-coupling is a way to link solar panels and a battery storage unit. It uses an extra part called an inverter. This inverter helps the energy from the sun talk to the power grid we use every day. It also lets us store extra energy for times when we need it most, like during a power blackout. [pdf]
[FAQS about Inverter AC coupling]
DC-coupling refers to a co-located battery and solar farm being connected behind a shared inverter - where power is in direct current (DC). Both assets operate in DC - and require an inverter to convert electricity to/from the alternating current (AC) in which the electricity grid operates. [pdf]
[FAQS about DC coupling of the inverter]
In a DC-coupled system, solar panels and energy storage batteries are directly connected to a hybrid inverter. The direct current (DC) generated by the solar panels is stored directly in the battery via the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controller without conversion. [pdf]
