Ingeteam Power Technology is to supply inverters to the 1,177.36MW Sweihan solar project in Abu Dhabi, the UAE, which is set to become the world's largest PV plant in a single location once complete.
Power electronics firm Ingeteam said it had supplied 23 of its 4.8MW power stations for the 125MW (DC) Clare Solar Farm project being built by Fotowatio Renewable Ventures (FRV), located in the Australian state of Queensland.
Ingeteam has launched its new PV string inverter, which will make it possible to achieve a power output of 100kWAC in a single, 75kg unit. This new three-phase inverter comes under the name ‘INGECON SUN 100TL’, and is suitable for indoor and outdoor installations and is primarily directed at commercial, industrial and large-scale projects.
Electrical engineering firm Ingeteam will supply a control, protection and measurement system for the 220/33kV substation of Acciona Energia’s 246.6MW solar PV plant in Chile.
The annual US-based Solar Power International (SPI) exhibition and conference historically generates a significant number of new product launches and can set new trends and directions for the downstream solar PV sector, globally. High-efficiency modules and high-voltage were the themes of new products announced at SPI on the second day.
