Press Releases

Fronius USA is pleased to announce its participation at this year’s Solar Power International tradeshow in Las Vegas and will present intelligent solutions for 24 hours of sun.

Solar Power International (SPI) is the largest solar trade show in North America and will take place September 12-15, 2016 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, Las Vegas NV.

With a capacity of 30 MW, this is a small semi-automatic DESERT production line, but still a flagship in terms of DESERT solar module production and electricity generation in the country, now fully functional and ready to start with operation.

Construction has started on the 131 MW (dc) / 102 MW (ac) solar facility in Lamesa, Texas.

New central inverter the first to be certified to UL 62109 standard.

PV inverter market size is projected to surpass USD 5 billion by 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of over 14.86% from 2016 to 2023. In terms of installation, the industry is likely to exhibit growth at a CAGR of over 21.53% over the forecast period. The spur in the industry can be subjected to increasing awareness regarding depletion of conventional energy sources. Proliferating usage of renewable resources is projected to drive the industry growth from 2016 to 2023.
Photovoltaic (PV) inverters, also known as solar inverters, convert inconsistent direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) frequency. These systems use MPPT (maximum power point tracking) technique to extract optimum power form solar panels. The frequency furnished by these systems can be supplied directly into the commercial network and can be used by local electrical network and off grid. Furthermore, it enables in direct use of commercial appliances. Flourishing technological innovations are likely to positively impact PV inverter market growth over coming years.
These systems are expected to play vital role for project regulators, investors as well as for developers. In addition, photovoltaic power supplied to the utility grid is expected to gain visibility as global solar energy demand is increasing. In addition, rising need to diminish carbon emission is expected to further propel the industry demand for solar inverter systems.

PV inverter systems market is anticipated to account for more than 10 to 15% of the overall equipment cost. High cost involved in installation of these systems is expected to hamper the industry growth over the forecast period. Unpredictable seasonal changes might negatively impact the industry growth.

Monitoring has become essential for the solar industry and is almost always included for new PV plants. However, looking at the past, it can be said that the role of monitoring today is much more vital to PV plants. Even If PV plants were equipped with a monitoring system then, the control of operation data left much to be desired in most cases. Monitoring was often absent and plant owners often had not yet upgraded their PV plants.

Numerous factors could negatively influence the operation of a PV plant and could lead to a reduction or, in the worst case, to complete yield losses. The failure of one or several inverters, cable damage, errors during installation or reductions from one or several modules due to dirt and grime are only just a few examples. A professional monitoring system is required to recognize and fix such problems in time. Even better is to have a monitoring system that is attended to by a PV specialist along with a service and maintenance contract.

The Solar-Log™ is setting new international standards when it comes to monitoring photovoltaic plants and managing consumers and loads. Perfect and precise monitoring provides the basis for flawless operation. Solar-Log™ offers the perfect model for every plant size.

The Solar-Log™ monitoring system from SDS and a corresponding service and maintenance contact have proven themselves as a reliable and comfortable solution for plant operators. In addition to the cutting-edge technology required for monitoring PV plants, reliable partners are ready to provide their services. This is primarily achieved with the help of the Solar-Log™ WEB "Commercial Edition" online portal to constantly monitor the plant. When problems occur, the PV specialist can immediately arrange service calls or perform changes remotely. As a result, the forecasted power yields are ensured and the monitoring system is professionally installed from the start.

Especially for operators who have had their PV plants 10 years or more, it is particularly worthwhile to upgrade their plant with the Solar-Log™ monitoring system in combination with a service and maintenance contract (depending on the country and tariff). Especially since plant owners received much higher feed-in tariffs back then compared to today.

Based on a study with a focus on the questions: "Which losses occur with PV plants and when various components fail," SDS could determine the financial advantages of installing a professional monitoring system.The case examples of the study are presented in the Press Release (pdf-data) for download.
