Solar safety: Because you can’t turn off the sun
Solar power works whenever the sun is shining - even when your system is switched off. That’s why solar safety at SolarEdge starts at the panel level.
Our systems are designed with built-in protection that helps keep your home and the people in it safe, so you can feel confident your solar system is working for you - securely and responsibly.
How we
ensure safety
At the core of our solar system, solar safety is built in through three pillars:
Prevention
Helping stop potential issues before they begin
Detection
Continuously monitoring and identifying irregularities
Mitigation
Automatically responding when needed to help limit impact
Together, this approach is designed to protect people and property throughout the system's lifetime.
Integrated safety technologies help reduce risk and support a safer home environment, every day.
Cybersecurity: Secure your home’s energy
As your solar system becomes a more central part of how your home is powered and managed, staying in control of it matters more than ever. Our solar systems are designed to help protect your access, your data, and the way your energy system is managed, so you can enjoy smart energy without worry.
Stay empowered and protected, backed by global standards
New report by VDE Renewables validates our safety features and demonstrates the cybersecurity advantages of SolarEdge solar power systems
From the VDE report on our safety features:
“SolarEdge’s integrated safety mechanism have been independently tested and validated, confirming that they meet industry standards, and go beyond regulatory requirements”
From the VDE report on our Cyber Security features:
“SolarEdge provides a clear example of how robust cybersecurity mechanisms are essential to mitigating risks associated with cyber threats. The company’s approach to cybersecurity demonstrates alignment with international best practices and validates the growing need for cybersecurity within the solar industry”
The fire risk posed by solar systems is widely considered to be extremely low. Even so, some solar systems maintain high voltages even when the system is switched off. This necessitates solar safety features for protecting your home and the people in it during everyday use, during the system’s maintenance, and in the unlikely event of a fire or other emergency.
SolarEdge goes the extra mile with layers of integrated safety mechanisms that collaborate to safeguard homeowners, installers, technicians, and firefighters from potential emergencies, protecting people and property. The system can prevent issues early, detect when something isn’t right, and automatically reduce risks if needed, while its safety features work quietly in the background, so you don’t have to think about them.
Not at all. Your solar system continues producing clean energy efficiently. Safety is built-in, not something that slows the system down.
Yes. SolarEdge aligns with leading global safety standards, giving homeowners confidence that protections are validated and recognized internationally.
As solar systems become more digitized and connected, without proper protection in place, they can be exposed to risks. Today’s smart homes are connected to the internet. Your solar system is no different. Unsecured solar systems act as a “doorway” to the home’ digital platforms and Cybersecurity help keep your personal information, home network, and energy system secure.
Yes. A report from VDE Renewables recognizes SolarEdge as a strong example of cybersecurity done right in the solar industry: “The company's approach to cybersecurity demonstrates alignment with international best practices and validates the growing need for cybersecurity within the solar industry”.
Updates are designed to happen quietly in the background and to ensure long-term protection without interrupting your energy production.
You get the advantages of clean solar energy with the peace of mind that your home is backed by built-in safety features and constant cybersecurity protections in place, so you can simply enjoy your solar system and leave the worries to us.
