Choosing a grid-forming solar inverter was created by felipe_gallardo
Hello, 

Is there an easy way to check directly in the SAM library if the inverter we are choosing is a grid-following or grid-forming inverter?

Best regards

Hi Felipe,

SAM's inverter library does not include a parameter describing if the inverter is a grid-forming or grid-following inverter. You would have to find the manufacturer's datasheet for the inverter to get that information.

Best regards,
Paul.
