Over the past ten years, there has been an increase in the need for solar photovoltaic (PV) electricity; according to a Statista estimate from 2023, 125.2 gigawatts will be required by 2024.
In order to ensure that consumers receive a positive return on their investment, stakeholders in the solar energy ecosystem are eager to make resources and infrastructure available for the production of clean energy.
This is where green energy and cutting edge technology come together, as demonstrated by the recently released Huawei 150K higher power C&I inverter.
The region’s growing need for reasonably priced solar energy was highlighted by Xia Hesheng, President of Huawei Digital Power in Sub-Saharan Africa, during the August 16 debut of the product.
High electricity costs are currently a problem for both businesses and households, but Hesheng believes that this will change as new advancements in solar energy production become available. He envisions a pollution-free, uninterrupted, safe, and steady power source that runs around the clock.
“This is a great opportunity for industry players as the return on investment will be high. Homeowners who install solar panels will also see a reduction in electricity costs,” said Hesheng.
The Huawei Digital Power President also outlined how quality and customer needs are incorporated into the product development cycle.
“In Huawei, we put the product quality as the foundation. When manufacturing a product, we don’t rely on a single person.”
The 150K C&I inverter
With its cutting-edge L4 AFCI and PV ground fault protection, Huawei’s 150K series Commercial and Industry (C&I) inverter guarantees asset and device safety.
The production of solar energy has long been impacted by safety hazards such excessive voltage that can lead to inverter failure. Environmental hazards include intense heat, cold, wind, and dust, as well as operating difficulties like dust buildup, bird droppings, or leaves left on solar panels, are additional threats.
Inverter outages are another significant factor contributing to losses for solar power users, according to Nick Lusson, Vice President of Huawei Digital Power for Eastern Africa. He believes that the 150K series and other advanced inverters are essential for reducing losses.
According to Lusson, the inverter includes a temperature detecting feature, is more dependable, safe, and produces more electricity. The most recent solar industry equipment is also compatible with the waterproof inverter.
In order to provide further security and unlock additional benefits, Lusson says that the system makes use of a PV optimizer. For example, it makes use of roof space by enabling the independent operation of each solar panel. This prevents situations where the output of solar energy is impacted by shadows on a single panel.
The inverter additionally use artificial intelligence technologies to identify malfunctions. After that, it alerts the user, who can then quickly create a report on the errors. This includes a remote fault location that indicates the precise cause of the outage.
Huawei has unveiled the Residential Luna 200KWH smart string energy storage solution, a PV optimizer, and an electric vehicle charger, among other technology solutions.
