Power-One Launches Dedicated Central Solar Inverter for Asian Market

Power-One Inc. has announced it has launched a newly designed central product specifically targeting the emerging Asian inverter market. Power-one’s new 250 and 500kW utility grade central inverters have a number of key features, including a very high efficiency of 98.3%; electrolytic capacitor free, leading to longer MTBF (mean time between failures); compact size and weight; touch screen display; and 1000Voc (open circuit voltage) rating.

"This product offers high performance with affordable capital expenditure and has been specifically designed for the fast growing Asian market," said Paolo Casini, Power-One’s Vice President for Marketing. "Its design is the result of the experience we have acquired with more than 50MW of installation in the challenging Asian market.

Power-One is currently the world’s second largest manufacturer of solar power inverters. With manufacturing centers in three continents, Power-One and its Aurora brand of solar and wind power inverters, ranging from 2kw to 2.5MW, offer best-in-class product performance and reliability along with a global customer care package.
