Fossile fuel causes emission greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane which are causes what is known as global warming and it is expected it will be exhausted within (40-60) years. Solar energy do not emit any pollutants and it is permanent as the sun is always shining, so it is necessary to develop the solar energy sector to reduce the risk of climate change and to make the air we breathe more safer, also to produce energy locally and reduce dependence on foreign sources of energy. A solar inverter is one of the most important elements of the solar electric power system. It converts the variable direct current (DC) output of a photovoltaic (PV) solar panel into alternating 220V current (AC). This AC electricity then can be fed into your home to operate your appliances. Long lasting solar power systems require a high quality inverter with a robust convection cooling system. Low quality inverters have failed in generating the required power. The efficiency and reliability of the inverter is considered one of the most important factors for the success of the solar system. The appropriate inverter is selected depending on the size of the solar system and the way it is connected to the main grid. The main types of the solar inverter will be introduced in this article. Keywords-central inverter, string inverter, micro-inverter, inverter/charger, simple inverter, hybrid inverter, power optimizer devices
