Solar power
Design a sustainable energy supply
Solar power is essential for renewable power generation. Decreasing system costs mean that photovoltaic power generation systems are attractive not only from an ecological perspective. They are also extremely competitive from an economic point of view when compared with conventional power generation systems.
Phoenix Contact is your expert partner for the optimum and reliable operation of photovoltaic systems. From ground-mounted systems and rooftop systems to hybrid energy systems, we always provide the right solution.
“Power generation with solar systems is now competitive without subsidization in many countries. For a significant proportion of total power generation, safe operation and controlled solar power feed-in to the power supply network are key. Phoenix Contact provides solutions based on industrial standards for environmentally friendly, economically efficient energy supply.”
Solutions for solar park management
Operating large PV systems requires continuous monitoring and control on the segment level. Reliable monitoring solutions keep you informed of the state of your photovoltaic system at all times, allowing you to respond immediately to ensure maximum yield. Learn more about the solutions from Phoenix Contact that enable you to constantly collect, visualize, and evaluate data from your solar park.
The combination of intelligent automation and comprehensive visualization tools allows you to continuously acquire and evaluate data from your solar park. From data acquisition at the field level to feed-in control and visualization, we provide complete, seamless solutions for solar park management.
Large, slightly slanted roof surface areas provide ideal conditions for the profitable deployment of photovoltaic systems. As a result of declining module prices and increasing energy costs, photovoltaic systems on private, commercial, and public buildings are becoming increasingly attractive, even without state subsidies.
To monitor the installations and provide lasting protection against lightning currents and overvoltages of all kinds, Phoenix Contact offers a wide range of products for roof-mounted photovoltaic systems. For the maximum degree of safety in the event of danger or maintenance, individual panels can be de-energized. Micro inverters are a great alternative for less-than-optimal roof surfaces. The new connection system for micro inverters is suitable for universal use and is particularly user-friendly.
A total of 1.2 billion people worldwide have no access to electricity. As a result, diesel generators are used in many locations to produce the necessary, independent source of energy. However, the price of the fuel for diesel generators is continuously rising. The use of hybrid photovoltaic systems not only reduces this financial burden, it also lowers CO2emissions in a sustainable manner. In rural regions without a local power grid and in developing and emerging countries, hybrid photovoltaic systems are a cost-efficient and environmentally-friendly alternative for generating electricity far from corresponding grids.
Hybrid photovoltaic systems are frequently installed under extreme climatic conditions. Therefore, along with the power generation units, the accumulator, and the inverter, the devices required for controlling and regulating these units must also be able to withstand the harsh ambient conditions. The solutions and components from Phoenix Contact meet these requirements ideally.
Phoenix Contact works with selected partners from all over the world who have extensive expertise in our products and systems. This ensures that our solutions for the solar industry are optimally adapted to meet individual customer requirements worldwide.
