Hillcrest: ZVS inverter breakthrough?
…signals should allow for downsizing of other components in the traction inverter; especially the DC link capacitor, which typically comprise 21% of the weight of the inverter, 14% of its…
Solar inverters: products, costs and companies?
This data-file tracks some of the leading companies making solar inverters and their products’ costs. Our utility-scale solar models assume up to $0.1/W might be paid for an inverter, usually less,…
SolarEdge: solar-electronics breakthrough?
…optimization and power-filtering using advanced electronics, to improve the longevity of solar and battery systems. Often this involves inverter/electronics technology replacing conventional/physical power-management equipment. The patent library scored relatively well…
Solar decline rates: causes and solutions?
…inverter strategy is explored on pages 11-13. Our work supports the shift from central inverters towards smaller inverters, possibly micro-inverters at utility scale. Companies covered in the report include Enphase,…
