Grid-Tied Inverters Target Commercial PV Systems

Power-One’s Aurora PVI-Central Series of commercial-grade photovoltaic inverters connect to the ac grid and employ subracks in a modular, scalable architecture that facilitates 50-kW to 300-kW applications. The products are ideally suited for the commercial market, including apartment buildings and light-industrial facilities.

Conversion efficiencies up to 96.9% and high-speed MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) channels optimize energy harvesting over a wide range of operating conditions. The first unit in the series is a 100-kW unit that provides either two functionally independent 50-kW outputs, or a single 100-kW power output.
