Trojan’s engineering team developed the Smart Carbon advanced lead acid formula to enhance life and performance of Trojan batteries operating in PSOC. Trojan chose to add Smart Carbon first to its deep-cycle flooded batteries because flooded technology is the most widely used in off-grid and unstable grid applications globally due to its cycling performance ability to withstand harsh conditions widespread availability and economical price point.
Reuniwatt Soleka
SOLEKA is a decision-making tool, intended to ease the introduction of renewable energies in the energy mix as it will enable to forecast the production of solar power plants at three time scales: £ 1 day ahead forecasting in order to convey to the distribution network operators the next day’s production capacity enabling them to plan their means of production.
£ 4 hours ahead, or intra-day forecasting which allows the PV electricity storage operators to confirm or invalidate their production commitments without risking penalties.
£ 30 minutes ahead, or shortcasting which enables the electricity suppliers to securely provide their energy and to optimize their means of production inside the grid.
By giving predictions to PV plant managers and electricity grid operators, we can help them better plan their solar storage and their use of other energies.
The integration of PV in the grid is therefore eased and optimized. Soleka is a decision-making tool enabling a massive and secure injection of photovoltaic on the electricity grid thanks to its solar energy forecasts. Thanks to the recent availability of volumes of applicable data, it is now possible to precisely simulate the missing link between the forecasted weather tendencies and the actual PV electrical production. In today’s context of global PV growth and fight against climate change, Soleka appears as the Big Data solution for electrical grids’ resistance against solar power’s intermittency.
SolarEdge Smart Energy
Management Solution
THE SOLAREDGE SMART ENERGY Management solution includes a feed-in limitation feature that enables PV system owners to maximize self-consumption while maintaining compliance with local grid regulations and installation standards.
The average size of a PV system is trending upward allowing owners to minimize grid consumption throughout the day. However this boom in PV generation has also altered the structure of grid operations prompting a number of countries to put in place regulations that limit the amount of PV power that can be delivered to the grid – some have even banned PV systems from feeding into the grid altogether. In many cases customers cannot justify the economics of a PV system purely for self-consumption or are forced to reduce the size of their desired system to avoid exceeding the local feed-in limit. By enabling customers to dynamically manage the amount of PV power produced so that the power fed into the grid never exceeds the limit the SolarEdge feed-in limitation unlocks a new level of operational flexibility for system owners.

Solar Ware Samurai 1.667 MW Inverter
THE SOLAR WARE SAMURAI is an outdoor PCS with a stand-alone capacity of 1,667kW. It’s highly advanced cooling system offers fanless operation up to 50 percent of the output power rating,and maintains high reliability while reducing energy costs. The inverter also boasts the ability to operate efficiently under the harshest of environments, such as deserts where large-scale mega solar facilities are frequently installed.
The system includes advanced multilevel inverter with 56% of switching loss reduction. Wide MPPT range allowing for best-in-class DC/AC ratios and flexible DC-input configuration to meet complex array configuration. TMEIC sets the standard of utility-scale installation with its own proprietary design. Features include Power factor control, reactive/ active power control, fault ride through, voltage ride through (low voltage ride through), frequency ride through, TMIEC’s proprietary anti-islanding technique utilizes a slip mode and frequency shift method.
