Installation of Hybrid Inverters In Lebanon


Background: Energy Challenges in Lebanon

Lebanon is experiencing a severe, long-term energy crisis characterized by the near-collapse of its state-owned utility, Électricité du Liban (EDL). The country relies heavily on imported, polluting heavy fuel oil and diesel, with roughly 95% of its primary energy imported. This has created a dysfunctional system where, as of 2022–2023, the government could only provide one to three hours of electricity per day, driving massive, expensive reliance on private, polluting diesel generators.

Structural power supply challenges include:

  • High and Growing Demand

  • Heavy Reliance on Imported Fossil Fuels

  • Elevated Energy Costs

  • Supply Instability and Infrastructure Decay


Impact on Business and Recent Developments:

  • Small Business Strain

  • Solar "Boom"

  • Regulatory Reforms

  • War Impacts

As a result, many commercial property owners and operators have actively explored solar-based power systems to improve energy independence and reduce long-term operating costs. ( More read: The Future of Lebanon's Unlikely Solar Revolution)

Project Objectives

The core objectives of this project were:

  1. Reduce dependence on imported electricity and fuel-based power generation

  2. Improve energy reliability for commercial buildings and shopping malls

  3. Enable on-site solar power utilization with flexible energy management

  4. Establish a scalable hybrid power solution suitable for urban commercial use

Hybrid solar inverter systems were selected as the preferred solution due to their ability to integrate solar power, grid electricity, and battery storage.

Solar Product Evaluation and Selection Process

Before finalizing the procurement, project stakeholders conducted a comparison of multiple hybrid inverter solutions available in the market.

Key evaluation criteria included:

  • MPPT efficiency for solar energy harvesting

  • Output waveform quality suitable for commercial equipment

  • Stability under continuous and variable load conditions

  • Compatibility with battery storage systems

  • Long-term operational reliability


After technical evaluation, Anern MPPT Hybrid Solar Inverter PRO and Pure Sine Wave Hybrid Inverter models were selected to meet the projec's technical and operational requirements.

System Configuration and Technical Characteristics

The deployed hybrid inverter systems provide:

  • MPPT solar charge control for optimized photovoltaic energy utilization

  • Pure sine wave AC output, suitable for sensitive and commercial-grade electrical equipment

  • Seamless switching between solar, grid, and battery power sources

  • Support for continuous operation in commercial environments

This configuration allows buildings to prioritize solar energy usage while maintaining stable power supply when solar generation fluctuates.

Deployment and Application Scenarios

A total of 400 hybrid inverters were installed across multiple sites in Lebanon, mainly applied in:

  • Commercial office buildings

  • Shopping malls

  • Mixed-use facilities with high daytime electricity demand

Local installation teams carried out system deployment and commissioning in accordance with standard electrical installation practices.

Project Significance

Following system deployment, the project achieved several measurable results:

  • Reduced reliance on imported energy sources

  • Improved power stability for commercial operations

  • Lower long-term electricity costs

  • Increased adoption of renewable energy in urban commercial settings

This project demonstrates the practicality of hybrid solar inverter solutions in addressing energy challenges in regions with high energy costs and unstable power supply.
