Your solar inverter should have a similar or slightly higher wattage rating than the DC output of your solar panels (which in this case is 4.5 kW). You can size it between 1.15 and 1.5 times larger. The rule of thumb is to size your inverter 1.25 bigger than your solar array. [pdf]
A 5kVA inverter is commonly used for residential homes and can handle a 5kW solar system. To achieve a 5kW solar system, you would need 12 units of half-cell solar panels with a wattage of 450 watts each. [pdf]
