Latin America has a high potential for solar energy generation, due to its strategic position. According to Rodrigo Sauaia, CEO of ABSOLAR (Brazilian Photovoltaic Solar Energy Association), the market in the region is considered the most dynamic in the sector.
For the manufacturer of photovoltaic inverters SMA, market experiences were no different. The company reached the milestone of 2.5 GW of power in solar photovoltaic technology in the region.
“This growth is a reflection of the excellent partnerships established in Latin America and Brazil. In 2021, SMA will invest more in staff, technical support and marketing for the entire region. Especially for the team in Brazil, which will have an increase in its specialized team for the areas of Services, Engineering, Sales and Finance”, says Daniel Rosende, SMA general manager for Latin America.
According to SMA, the products that contributed to the achievement include the Sunny Highpower PEAK3, the Sunny Tripower CORE1, the Sunny Central series and the MVPS (Medium-Voltage Power Station), which were successful in Chile and Brazil.
“We seek to impeccably serve resellers and installers across the country who use SMA solutions and further contribute to the growth of photovoltaic projects in Brazil”, concludes Rosende.
News for the Brazilian market
Aiming to meet Brazilian demand, the manufacturer announced the arrival of the new SMA Sunny Tripower CORE2 inverter for the Brazilian photovoltaic market.
According to the company, the equipment offers a power of 110 kW and flexibility in implementing systems with a three-phase output of 380V.
The Sunny Tripower CORE2 is designed for commercial systems, on rooftops or on the ground, with options for storage integration and direct sales of solar energy. In addition, it has 12 MPPTs and 24 Strings with a 1100 VDC Sunclix connector.
The inverter is compatible with bifacial panels and up to 50% oversized, being recommended for solar projects with up to 1,100 V, in addition, it allows different panel orientations.
Furthermore, the software integrated into the inverter, SMA ShadeFix and SMA Smart Connected, guarantee maximum energy generation even in shaded systems and offer reduced service costs, system maintenance and automatic notification in the event of a failure.
Per-app monitoring and support
The SMA Energy APP and SMA 360º App were also announced, for professional support, enabling access to all photovoltaic system data remotely.
SMA Energy is a real-time monitoring tool that optimizes control of energy production and consumption of devices, household appliances and electric vehicles.
The application allows the management of energy flows, provides updated forecasts on daily solar energy production, generation and consumption history and even the carbon footprint.
Furthermore, the system allows the management of intelligent charging processes for electric vehicles, setting charging targets at the lowest possible cost, optimizing energy use and accelerating charging through the boost function.
The tool was designed for professionals in the sector and helps with quick and easy planning of budgets, sales of photovoltaic systems, as well as helping to resolve any possible system error.
The application provides information divided between planning, operation and service, by summarizing the results it is possible to identify failures through the system name, day and time of the error, it also allows searching for the event or device code, name of the customer or company. plant.
