Solectria Renewables Announces Megawatt Solar Station

Solectria Renewables Introduces 1-2MW Medium Voltage Megawatt Solar Station Solutions

Solectria Renewables announced at the 2010 Solar Power International the introduction of 1-2MW medium voltage Megawatt Solar Stations. IMS Research, a leading electronics market research firm, recently released a PV inverter research report stating, "[The] highest demand for PV inverters in 2010 will come from both the smallest and the largest three-phase inverters... with shipments of inverters rated below 35kW and above 500kW growing at nearly 50% faster than the rest of the market." Predicting this exponential market growth in the utility-scale market, Solectria Renewables developed and engineered a fully-integrated medium voltage Megawatt Solar Station.

Leveraging Solectria Renewables industry standard SmartGrid Inverter (SGI) 225-500kW Series with 97% CEC efficiency, the Megawatt Solar Station has been engineered specifically for large utility-scale PV systems. The Megawatt Solar Station solutions are fully customizable integrated designs complete with 500MW SmartGrid inverters, transformers and medium voltage switch gear.

"Utility-scale projects are more prevalent in the PV industry today than ever before. Our customers requested a completely integrated and extremely efficient solution for use at 1-2MW. This solution comes from continuous product development, market analysis and customer input. We continue to see the growth of the utility-scale market and now offer the largest and most efficient utility-scale medium voltage solution in the market," stated Phil Vyhanek, President of Solectria Renewables.

Each Megawatt Solar Station is delivered to a customer site complete with all necessary components for a direct connection, solar array to medium voltage utility power, increasing customers' cost savings while decreasing installation time of a typical utility-scale PV installation.
