Hi, I need to design 25MW ground mount system. Please any one suggest whether to select Central inverter or string inverter?
Central or string inverter 25MW

They are the same thing. I guess you meant micro inverters.

No Sir, for 25MW some suggesting Central and some string. So bit confused.
But it's the same thing. A central inverter is one inverter that takes the solar DC strings to it and makes is AC. A string inverter is the same thing. It might very well be that the terminology is used differently and that it's called a 'central inverter' when talking grid scale or whatever in some regions, but the principle is the same. It's just that a central inverter is just much larger. At 25MW, you'll hence be looking at a central inverter.
A DIY 25MW system? I hope you have a neighbor to help you mount the 50,000 panels.

Largest sol-ark (string inverter) is 60kW.
Largest central inverter is 500kW.
50 central inverters vs 417 string inverters for 25MW, I would go for central.
Tigo optimizers for panel level monitoring?

Sol-Ark 60K is hybrid. OP might not need battery charge. Deye (=Sol-Ark manufacturer) makes GTI string inverters more than twice that size. Still ~180 string inverters vs 50 bigger string inverters (=central).Solar Power Systems: String Inverter or Central Inverter? | Novergy Solar

I believe that it is a school project.

Thankyou for your valuable comments.
I got my solution from OEM vendors. I thought here people are mature enough to answer or discuss.

What solution did they come up with?

Hi, No going for 3.3MW central inverter. And yes central inverters are better and convenientSolar Power Systems: String Inverter or Central Inverter? | Novergy Solar

Nope, we just had a school project here asking essentially the sane nonsensical question, with the same apparent understanding of the terminology.

Not DIY, its a tender.

Sorry, I misspoke, that should read “Billions of Rupees to spend”.
And the hard part isn’t what panels, inverters, and wiring should you use, the hard part on a project that size is the political and financial interface with the power company, and the financing package and civil engineering to actually get it done. No one is going to ask how strict your AJ is with permitting and inspections…

Ah, you want the SillyQuestionsForTenderSolarForum.com website then.
