“We can look back on an extremely successful trade fair,” said SMA CEO Pierre-Pascal Urbon. “The acknowledgement of our technology with the Intersolar Award again shows that SMA is providing the right solutions for intelligent and cost-efficient use of solar energy. In addition, the new SMA platform ennexOS will give commercial customers considerable support in becoming more independent from conventional electric utility companies and increasing their competitiveness. With our solutions and innovations in the fields of energy management and storage systems for a future-proof, renewable energy supply, we have once again demonstrated that SMA can offer PV system operators not only system technology for PV systems, but also straightforward integration into energy trading.”
Generating, controlling and consuming power more efficiently
For both private and commercial users of residential systems, SMA presented the SMA Power+ and SMA Energy+ solutions, which PV system operators can use to further increase their energy yields and reduce their electricity costs. Furthermore, SMA Energy+ enables battery storage systems to be integrated into a system and makes intelligent energy management possible using the new Sunny Home Manager 2.0, which integrates electrical household appliances even more easily and optimizes power consumption.
Unique concepts for commercial PV systems and PV power plants
In addition to the Intersolar Award winner Sunny Tripower CORE1, which reduces installation costs for commercial PV systems by up to 60%, in the field of decentralized PV systems SMA also presented the new Sunny High Power PEAK1 inverter for the first time. It is specially designed for use in PV power plants with decentralized architecture and combines maximum flexibility in system design with significant cost savings.
Efficient storage solutions for all application areas and battery types
SMA’s storage solutions with battery inverters for every application area and battery type also met with particularly strong interest from Intersolar visitors. The new Sunny Island 4.4M, 6.0H, 8.0H with an integrated user interface for on- and off-grid applications, the new Sunny Boy Storage 3.7, 5.0, 6.0 and the new Sunny Tripower Storage for integration of high-voltage batteries into private and commercial on-grid applications impressed the guests at the trade fair. For large storage systems, SMA presented the new Sunny Central Storage 2200/2500-EV battery inverter for integration of a high level of renewable energies into utility grids with maximum grid stability.
Reliable system solutions for centralized and decentralized PV power plants
In SMA’s large-scale power plant segment, operators, EPCs and investors experienced the top-notch quality of SMA’s solutions for themselves at the SMA booth. This ensures maximum system reliability and long-term availability of system solutions for PV power plants with centralized and decentralized architecture. The new Medium Voltage Power Station 5500SC-EV is the optimum SMA solution for PV power plants up into the gigawatt range.
