Grid Integrated 1,000 VDC Systems: The New Standard for Commercial PV

In 2012, U.S. PV installations are predicted to grow to 3.2 GW with the commercial space accounting for 33% of the market. With module prices at an all-time low, PV developers and integrators must reduce other system costs to remain competitive while navigating potential grid interconnection challenges. In particular, commercial PV professionals can benefit from applying 1,000 VDC technology, primarily through a significant balance of system savings along with an increased energy yield. This webinar will detail the economic advantages of a 1,000 VDC system vs. traditional 600 VDC systems and the importance of grid management and SCADA integration through next generation inverters.

Attendees will learn how Grid Integrated 1,000 VDC systems:

  • Reduce BOS material and installation costs
  • Generate additional power due to lower line losses and higher efficiency
  • Achieve AHJ acceptance and code compliance
  • Incorporate UL listed components for a wide range of applications
  • Utilize next-generation central inverter technology that supports grid management and SCADA integration

Commercial PV integrators, EPCs, developers and utility power providers will benefit from this insightful webinar that will illustrate why 1,000 VDC systems are quickly becoming the new standard in commercial PV.
