Xantrex GT Series Grid Tie Solar Inverters are a key component in a photovoltaic (PV) installation package available to Home Depot customers.

Homeowners that purchase a Home Depot system can participate in the recently implemented Ontario Renewable Energy Standard Offer Program (RESOP) - a renewable energy initiative launched last year by the Ontario Power Authority. The program provides homeowners with a financial incentive to install residential solar energy systems.

 Under the Home Depot program, homeowners can purchase a PV system from select Home Depot stores. A consultant will visit the home and provide a full assessment with the home owner to determine the requirements for a solar system, including solar panels and a Xantrex inverter. The Xantrex inverter converts DC energy generated by the solar panels into clean, useable AC power, which is sold back to the utility electrical grid at a price nearly four times higher than the homeowner pays the utility for the electricity used in their home.”
