Satcon Technology debuted its PowerGate Plus H-Type product line, a new addition to the company’s utility-ready solution portfolio. The PowerGate Plus H-Type inverter was developed over the past year, specifically to address the demand from Hawaiian utilities for increased inverter control. Satcon noted that its smart inverters are now generally available in three power rating of 100kW, 135kW and 250kW with both standard and tropical environment package options.

“As North America’s leading Utilities increase the integration of solar power plants onto their grid networks, intelligent inverters become the key enablers for enhanced grid stability and control,” said Michael Levi, vice president of worldwide marketing and product management for Satcon. “Over the past year, Hawaiian Utilities have expanded inverter feature-function requirements in order to gain greater control of these distributed power plants. Leveraging our next-generation EDGE Adaptive Control Architecture, Satcon was able to rapidly address the Utilities’ LVRT requirements and provide for highly flexible, controllable, and stable solar power grid integration.”

  • Photovoltaics International 19th Edition

    For manufacturers who had their heads in the bunker during 2012, fighting falling ASPs and eroding margins, the nineteenth edition brings you details of what lies in store for this coming year. Wright Williams & Kelly return in this issue with their popular analysis of payback on technology buys; crucially they analyze n-type wafers, Al2O3 passivation and copper metallization. SERIS shows us how to achieve 18.7% efficiencies using low-cost etching techniques on diffused wafers. We also have two important technology roundups: CIGS from Helmholtz Berlin, and PV module encapsulation techniques from Fraunhofer ISE.
