Entries for the first competition are now being accepted online. “The solar industry is booming with new ideas, and we’re excited to showcase the best in mounting, energy storage, modules and other technology in the 2024 Top Products competition,” said Kelly Pickerel, editor-in-chief of World of solar energy. “In the past, the editors have selected our…
Scientists in the Emirates have devised a new space vector pulse width modulation method that reportedly reduces switching losses and increases efficiency in three-phase photovoltaic inverters. The proposed technique was found to have higher efficiency while delivering lower common-mode voltage, leakage current, and total harmonic distortion compared to traditional pulse-width modulation approaches. July 1, 2024 Emiliano BelliniResearchers from Khalifa University in the United Arab Emirates have developed a new space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) technique for controlling the switches and reducing switching losses in three-phase photovoltaic inverters.The proposed approach aims to reduce the common-mode voltage (CMV), which is generated…

  Author: Sunny Trinh, co-founder and CEO of DevvStream In business and politics, one promise currently trumps all: the “net zero goal.” This ambition is both well-intentioned and promising, but it is becoming abundantly clear that the majority of those in leadership positions – both in government and in the commercial sector – do not have the knowledge needed to implement measures that will make a real difference. like achieving this extremely important milestone. A general consensus of perhaps justified cynicism currently suggests that some players are hiding behind the fanfare of announcing lofty goals as a smokescreen for lack…
AEG said the new three-phase hybrid inverter range includes four versions with power ratings from 6 kW to 15 kW. They offer an efficiency of up to 98.2% and a maximum input voltage of 1,000 V. July 1, 2024 Emiliano Bellini Germany’s AEG has launched new three-phase hybrid inverters for applications in high-voltage rooftop PV systems.“AEG’s new 10 kW hybrid inverter works with the high current flows of the larger solar panel types – where higher power goes hand in hand with higher currents,” a company spokesperson said. pv magazine.There are four versions of the new products, with powers ranging…
US storage and inverter specialist Yotta Energy says its new package has several advantages compared to conventional C&I solar storage solutions. For example, the design eliminates the need for a dedicated space or separate area for the battery racks and is said to keep the batteries cool, passively maintaining an ideal operating temperature range between 21 C and 38 C. July 1, 2024 Valerie ThompsonUS-based Yotta Energy is targeting solar PV and energy storage installations with its panel-level storage offering, a new package including the SolarLEAF SL-1000 1 kWh solid state thermally regulated lithium iron phosphate battery and a Yotta…
