A 1.2-MW PV project came online in Jefferson, Wisconsin. It’s one of the state’s largest.
Thanks to this solar power plant, the regional electric company will receive enough energy to power 150 homes. The solar panels, about 3,500 units, were built in the city of Jefferson for this project.
The project used Ingeteam’s Ingecon Sun PowerMax 500 kW inverters. This large-scale PV plant was built by the Chicago-based company Half Moon Ventures and it features the first ARRA compliant PV inverters that have been assembled at the new Ingeteam’s factory in Milwaukee.
Javier Pérez, Vice President of Ingeteam, has saays, “We are proud for having participated in this project, as it enabled us to produce our new ARRA compliant PV inverters. We believe that it will lead us to new opportunities, not only in Wisconsin but in the whole country.”
With more than 3 GW of solar PV inverters supplied worldwide, Ingeteam has developed the new Ingecon Sun PowerMax U central inverters specifically for the North American market, in compliance with the UL-1741 standard. These inverters feature maximum efficiency levels of 98.6%, 1000 Vdc, NEMA 3R protection ratings, DC and AC disconnections, and they are available with an output power of up to 880 kW. The inverter model installed in Jefferson was the Ingecon Sun 500 TL U X275 Outdoor.
