VDE 4130 Certification: Official presentation for 255kW utility-scale inverter
At the Solis booth, TÜV Rheinland and the Solis utility team celebrated the handover of the VDE 4130 certificate for the Solis-(215-255)K-EHV-5G-PLUS high voltage inverter. This critical certification is essential for solar installations in Germany and many other European countries. The series of inverters enhances PV power plant yields from high-performance solar panels, including bifacials, and features a fuse-less design and IP66 protection.
With a 14 MPPT/12 MPPT topology and a maximum efficiency of 99%, it supports a 200% DC/AC ratio. Also showcased was the 350k, offering up to 99% efficiency, 12/16 MPPTs, 32 inputs, a 20A string current, and supporting a 150% DC/AC ratio. The robust construction of both inverters makes them ideal for the challenging environments often encountered in utility-scale projects worldwide.
Energy security, cost of living, and cyber security dominate the conversation
The exhibition featured a diverse range of discussions, from DIY balcony installations and commercial and industrial (C&I) storage solutions to intelligent software integration and cyber security. Solis unveiled its S6-GR1P(0.8)K-UM, a compact balcony inverter tailored for the German market. Lightweight and easy to install, this inverter is suitable for various PV module configurations and applications, including balconies, terraces, garages, and outdoor projects, offering a user-friendly solution for sustainable living.
Additionally, Solis presented its latest range of hybrid inverters. The S6-EH3P(8-15)K-L, S6-EH3P(12-20)K-H, and the powerful S6-EH3P(30-50)K-H inverters, compatible with battery models from global brands like BYD, LG Energy Solutions, Dyness, and Pylon Tech, offer flexibility in system choice and help reduce energy costs for homeowners and businesses.
SolisCloud: Advanced online commissioning and monitoring platform
SolisCloud, an online commissioning and monitoring platform, was also highlighted. This platform enables seamless management of Solis installations for installers, O&M providers, and system owners.
