This new full-featured, UL1741-listed product can be installed in PV installations ranging in size from 90kW to 1MW.

Lawrence, MA, October 4, 2005 - Solectria Renewables LLC announced today it has added a 90kW inverter, the PVI90kW, to its existing product line of 1.8kW to 77kW residential and commercial grid-tied PV inverters.

This new full-featured, UL1741-listed product can be installed in PV installations ranging in size from 90kW to 1MW.

"We have worked closely with our customers to develop a product that is well-suited for any commercial grid-tied PV installation," said James Worden, CEO of Solectria Renewables. "Based on their detailed input and feedback, the PVI90KW includes AC and DC disconnects, built-in transformer and filters and a contactor to off-line the unit for zero nighttime loss."

Solectria Renewables introduced its first large commercial integrated inverter in 2004, when it delivered a 75 kW unit to a European customer. Since then, the PVI60KW, PVI77KW and PVI90KW inverter family has been designed for both 208VAC and 480VAC applications. They are built on the same platform to offer the best customer value. All six versions are listed to UL1741 and meet NY requirements. The PVI77KW unit is on the CEC eligible equipment list.

With grid-tied inverters ranging from 1.8 to 90kW, Solectria Renewables can now offer leading features and value for PV systems ranging from 1kW to 1MW. The whole lineup offers high reliability, premium efficiency and a high level of integration minimizing installed cost by reducing installation time and materials required.
