Tigo Energy has applied its technology to solar modules worldwide, targeting the full spectrum of projects from residential systems to large utility-scale installations. The company said that its combined deployed systems generate 1GWh of solar power daily.
Tigo Energy combines its Flex MLPE monitoring and optimisation products with a cloud-based Energy Intelligence platform, which it applies across the range of sectors it covers to optimise installation, module-level shutdown and monitoring.
In July this year, Tigo Energy filed an intellectual property infringement lawsuit against US against inverter manufacturer SMA Solar Technology America.
White & Case LLP acted as legal advisor to Tigo and both DLA Piper LLP and Loeb & Loeb LLP acted as legal advisors to Roth CH IV.
