System Components
Balance of System components incorporate all the pieces of a renewable energy system except for the solar panels and their mounting system. These components include batteries, inverters, charge controllers, over current protection and enclosures. CES's distributors stock all of the major Power System components and associated accessories. Choosing the appropriate components can be overwhelming for people who are just becoming interested in renewable energy systems. Please feel free to contact our technical support, we will be happy to assist you!
Our distributors facility is an Outback Power Systems Integrating Partner, able to custom build complete ETL-listed power systems for renewable energy and backup power use. We work with you to determine the precise mix of components to meet your specific needs, then assemble and test the complete package to ensure maximum reliability. You receive a turn-key system ready to hang on the wall and connect to inputs.
Inverters convert DC power from your renewable energy source into the AC power needed for powering the appliances in your home. Inverters are grouped in two major categories: those designed to convert solar energy directly into AC without the use of storage batteries, and those designed to provide power from batteries, with the batteries being charged by any number of sources. We offer a broad range of inverters from well-known suppliers for all applications, and can help you choose the best match for your needs.
Batteries store energy. CES distributes Surrette and Concorde batteries, which we have found to be the highest quality, most cost-effective batteries available.
A charge controller is an essential part of all battery based power systems, whether the power source is PV, wind or hydro-electric. Its primary purpose is to keep your batteries from becoming overcharged. In addition, advanced charge controllers offer maximum power point tracking (MPPT), which can extract more power out of your solar array.
CES distributes premium products from the following manufacturers:
