SolarMagic’s active power management delivers a comprehensive and customizable PV management system designed to maximize ROI
Active power management is a comprehensive solution that National Semiconductor’s SolarMagic™ technology delivers to the entire solar industry. With solar installations at an all-time high worldwide, the size of each installation continues to increase as does the need for up-front capital to fund these installations. SolarMagic’s complete PV system solution incorporates both active power optimization and active monitoring and management to achieve projected ROI and energy harvest goals.
System performance of actual kWh output in today’s existing installations is not meeting short-term projections calculated prior to funding and installation. This issue becomes exacerbated over time as modules degrade year by year and require continual upkeep and maintenance. Power optimization technology (at the array, module, or string level) solves this challenge by allowing system owners to combat system degradation by minimizing mismatch and increasing efficiency.
As power optimization maximizes hardware investment, active monitoring and management pinpoints exact sites, modules, or strings that require attention. Active monitoring and management collects real-time data, allowing system owners to make active decisions to replace underperforming equipment, adjust arrays or modules for weather and environmental factors, or schedule maintenance only when necessary.
