Accelerating the green energy transition
+380 (66) 508-07-64On May 19, Avenston held a webinar for its employees in conjunction with the German manufacturer of inverters KACO new energy. New inverter models for photovoltaic installations and energy storage systems and the rules for their operation, features, and advantages were presented.
KACO new energy implements a huge number of international projects around the world. The history of the company dates back to 1914 when the factory for the motor seals production in Heilbronn city was founded. In 1950, the factory began to produce electromechanical choppers, the predecessors of modern inverters.
KACO new energy conducts continuous research and development to improve its equipment capabilities to maintain the status of one of the leading inverter manufacturers in the world. Since the end of April 2019, the company is a subsidiary of Siemens AG.
Features of KACO blueplanet inverters:
- compact, 137.5 KVA max output power weighing less then 80 kg;
- efficiency >99.2%;
- functional IP66/NEMA 4X aluminum outdoor housing, OD+ Resilient against salt air corrosion;
- 50% Overloading possible – Max DC power 187.5 kW;
- optimum cost-efficiency with its “reduce to the max.” concept;
- SiC based development – High Power Density;
- implementation of ripple control signals;

Reactive Power Control in Utility-Scale PV Plants
To facilitate higher levels of distributed PV penetration and meet transmission interconnection requirements, inverter-based generators need to participate in utility-voltage regulation by absorbing or injecting reactive power.
Solar forecasting in Ukraine
Weather systems result in strong variability in the available solar radiation across the day. This means that solar plant power output is impacted, with strong changes in energy generation across the day. As Ukraine adds more solar energy to its electricity grid, it is becoming important to predict these changes in energy generation from hours to days ahead.
