Solar Stack is an independent tool for checking whether a solar panel and an inverter work together safely. This page explains who builds it, where the equipment data comes from, and how the project is funded.
Solar Stack is developed and operated by Roman Pohorilchuk, an independent software developer based in Kharkiv, Ukraine. There is no company and no team behind the site — it is one person's work. If you have a question about the site, the data, or your account, write to support@solar-stack.com and it reaches the developer directly.
The project began during Russia's war against Ukraine, when repeated strikes on the power grid left millions of homes without electricity for hours or days at a time. Solar panels with battery storage became a practical way to keep the lights on. But choosing equipment that actually works together means reading datasheets and running temperature calculations most homeowners have never seen. Solar Stack exists to remove that barrier. It now serves homeowners and installers across Europe and India in eleven languages.
Every specification in the database is taken from the manufacturer's own datasheet: 4,445 solar panels and 2,711 inverters from 165 brands, backed by 1,760 source PDF documents which you can download from the equipment pages and check yourself. Nothing is estimated or copied from retailer listings. Users can submit equipment, but a submission stays invisible until it has been verified against the manufacturer's datasheet and approved. The calculations follow IEC 62548 for array design, IEC 61215 and IEC 61730 for module testing and safety, and EN 50530 for inverter efficiency. When a datasheet is ambiguous or a value fails a plausibility check, the record is flagged for review rather than guessed.
Articles and guides are drafted with AI assistance and rest on the same verified data as the rest of the site: manufacturer datasheets, the equipment database and the calculator's formulas. Technical claims are regularly re-checked against that database, and each article names the standards it relies on (IEC, VDE, NEC). That is why our content carries no personal byline — its credibility comes from verifiable data, not from a named author.
Solar Stack is self-funded and developed independently. No manufacturer, distributor, or installer pays to be included in the database, to rank higher in results, or to be recommended by the calculator. There are no affiliate links and no sponsored equipment. Which panel or inverter the tools suggest depends only on the numbers in the datasheet.
General questions and bug reports: support@solar-stack.com. Data protection and privacy requests: privacy@solar-stack.com. You can also use the feedback form on the site — every message is read, and equipment errors you report are checked against the original datasheet and corrected.
Solar Stack is a planning aid, not an engineering sign-off. The calculator checks the electrical limits published by the manufacturers, but it cannot see your roof, your cabling, your local grid rules, or the condition of your equipment. Before you buy or install anything, have the design confirmed by a certified electrician or solar installer who carries responsibility for the work in your country. Always verify safety-critical values against the original datasheet — where we have the document, the link is on the equipment page.
