“Sustainable Energy’s unique line of Paralex products and systems changes the game for commercial and public sector rooftop solar power systems,” said Bucher. “The solar PV systems and inverters deliver a higher return on investment while also providing the highest level of safety and reliability that is crucial for government and commercial buildings.”

The Paralex line is based on a patented low-voltage, high-yield inverter, which can be used with both crystalline and thin-film PV modules. The company says that its products enable a parallel architecture to increase total system yields while also addressing emerging safety concerns. The system achieves higher energy yields and operates at intrinsically safe voltages as well as enabling simpler, more flexible design that improves module coverage of any rooftop, according to Sustainable.
