Fraunhofer ISE researchers claim the new silicon carbide inverter is technically able to handle voltage levels of up to 1,500 V at 250 kVA in utility scale solar power plants.Germany's Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems (Fraunhofer ISE) has unveiled a new medium-voltage string inverter for large-scale PV power plants. In a press release, Fraunhofer ISE researchers said the new device is the first of its kind and is based on silicon carbide semiconductors. Silicon carbide-based inverters are known to have higher power densities, with less need for cooling and lower overall system costs ...Den vollständigen Artikel lesen ...
