Industry Leader Expands One Megawatt Solution Portfolio with Next
Generation One Megawatt Platform Prism® for Utility Scale Solar
Satcon Technology Corporation (NASDAQ CM: SATC), a leading provider of
utility scale distributed power solutions for the renewable energy
market, announced today the general availability of Prism®, a fully
integrated one megawatt medium voltage solution optimized for utility
scale solar PV installations.
Leveraging Satcon’s industry standard setting PowerGate® Plus 500kW
solar PV inverters, Prism is a fully customizable one megawatt platform,
complete with factory integrated step-up transformers, switchgear, and
electronics. The solution will be delivered complete in an all-climate
outdoor enclosure and ready to connect to the PV array and utility grid,
enabling rapid installation through a modular prepackaged design.
Prism will dramatically increase the ease and speed of a typical utility
scale PV installation, while also providing the unparalleled power
production efficiencies that can only be realized through this full
factory integrated and tested power conversion platform. Satcon’s Prism
one megawatt integrated medium voltage solution is based on factory
integrated pairs of Satcon’s highly efficient PowerGate Plus 500kW solar
PV inverters, which recently eclipsed 150MW of total units installed
globally.
“We are at an inflexion point in the solar PV industry, where utility
scale projects are becoming more prevalent,” commented Dr. Leo Casey,
Chief Technology Officer and Vice President of Engineering for Satcon.
“Satcon’s solutions have been used on some of the largest renewable
energy sites in the world with hundreds of millions of grid connect kW
hours delivered to date. Our customers were asking for a highly
efficient, completely integrated package for large scale installations,
and Prism offers the most flexible, efficient and powerful solution on
the market today.”
The Prism solar PV solution is available for order immediately. The
