Accelerating the green energy transition
On 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;
- adjustable power factor;
- intelligent, active cooling system;

Solar generation: growth forecasts
New analytical data on the results of global renewables development in 2018 forced the scientists to change their previous forecasts. Electricity generation at PV stations will become a key contributor to overall electricity generation soon, but the main segment of the entire global power grid as well.
Сheap electricity by solar
The current prices for photovoltaic equipment (solar modules, inverters, etc.) and the climatic conditions of Ukraine make it possible to obtain cheap and environmentally friendly electricity using solar power plants.
Types of solar inverters
Inverters play an important role in solar power plants. Solar panels generate direct current, while the electrical grid operates on alternating voltage. Inverters convert the direct current generated by the solar panels into alternating current.
