Optimisers
In the context of photovoltaics, a power optimizer is an electronic device that is used to optimize the performance of photovoltaic panels in solar systems. Its main objective is to increase the overall efficiency and performance of the solar system by minimizing energy losses caused by various factors such as shading, irregular lighting, or adverse conditions on the panels.
Thanks to the powerful optimizer, it is possible for each panel to produce the maximum amount of energy, regardless of the other panels in the system.
The powerful optimizers thus optimize the solar energy production for each panel by tracking the point of maximum output, focusing on each panel in the system separately.
- Panel-level optimization: a powerful optimizer is connected to the individual PV panels in the PV system. Its task is to monitor the power and voltage of each panel independently. This allows maximum performance from each panel, even when they are exposed to different conditions.
- Minimizing power loss: when a panel in the system is shaded or has reduced power for other reasons, the power optimizer works to minimize these losses by adjusting the operating point of that particular panel. This ensures that even when some panels are not in optimal conditions, overall system performance remains high.
