Project Focus: PV Powered inverters installed for new office-building project

PV Powered commercial inverters have been installed in a new office-building project in Lakewood, New Jersey.  Premier Power Renewable Energy completed the design, engineering and installation of the project, which also features new high-density CIGS thin-film cylindrical solar panels by Solyndra.

The commercial installation comprises of a combination of PV Powered's 75kW and 100kW PV commercial inverters, fitted with Fat Spaniel performance monitoring technology. The system is expected to produce more than 345,000kWh of electricity annually to three different building tenants who have entered into PPAs with the investment group that has funded the development.

"We selected PV Powered commercial inverters for the job because they have been designed to work reliably with the latest thin-film panel technologies," said Dean Marks, CEO for Premier Power. "It is critical that our system elements be highly efficient and capable of maximizing energy harvest over the long lifetime of the system."

"PV Powered commercial inverters have the widest DC operating voltage range in the industry, allowing for more system design flexibility," said Erick Petersen, VP of marketing and sales for PV Powered. "This also makes them the leading technical solution for use with higher voltage modules such as high wattage crystalline thin-film arrays."

    Photovoltaics International 16th Edition

    This sixteenth edition of Photovoltaics International marks four years of production of the quarterly journal. As always, our focus is on efficiency and quality improvement and cost reduction in manufacturing. As 2012 rolls along, companies are falling by the wayside due to supply and demand issues, ASP declines and drastic governmental subsidy cuts. A clear picture of 2012 is offered through papers from the likes of TÜV Rheinland, Fraunhofer ISE, SEMI PV Group and EPIA, amongst others.
