Equipment presented at Intersolar
At Intersolar, the jury selected three winners for this year's event: Huawei, Aiko Solar and Wavelabs.
- Huawei presented the SUN2000-330KTL string inverter, which converts direct current into alternating current.
- The panels from Aiko Solar :
the 72-cell white-hole series offers the highest capacity, up to 620 W, as well as the highest delivery efficiency of the ABC series, at 24%. Power loss is just 0.35% per year after the first year, a figure shared by all four panels in the ABC series. Some variants are all-black, suitable for a wide range of construction projects. No silver paste is used in these panels.
- Wavelabs' advanced Sinus-360 simulator uses LEDs to simulate the sun's rays and test the operation and efficiency of the solar panels. Ensuring operational efficiency is of great importance to many solar manufacturers. The lighting is particularly flexible, as the LEDs can be moved and aligned to test the panels from different angles, making it easy to assess two-sided panels. The simulator offers infrared imaging, allowing panels to be tested with light beyond the visible spectrum for human workers.
Other equipment on show
- Mounting systems manufacturer Schletter presented its latest agrivoltaic product, which is installed vertically to increase production in winter. https://www.pv-tech.org/schletter-unveils-vertical-agripv-system-at-intersolar/
- LONGi presented its latest tandem cell, which boasts an efficiency of 33.5%. https://www.pv-tech.org/longi-unveils-solar-cell-of-33-5-efficiency-at-intersolar/
- Vaisala, a Finnish environmental and industrial measurement company, presented a meteorological station designed to improve the performance of solar power plants. The station can measure global, diffuse and reflected solar irradiation, as well as other key meteorological parameters, including wind speed and direction, ambient and PV panel temperature, precipitation, relative humidity and atmospheric pressure. The weather station has a self-diagnosis and array sensor monitoring function that allows users to manage and monitor arrays remotely.
