SolarEdge's 330-kW Inverter Receives UL 1741-SB Certification

• SolarEdge's high-power DC-optimized 330-kW inverter system, installed on a 1-MW solar system in California, overcomes shading and terrain challenges, offers 99% efficiency, and reduces costs while increasing energy production.

SolarEdge's new high-power DC-optimized 330-kW inverter system has received UL 1741-SB certification and has been installed on its first project in the United States. The system is being used on a 1-MW ground-mount solar system in Northern California and is expected to produce approximately 1,575,000 kWh of solar energy annually, offsetting 96% of the site's annual electricity use. The SolarEdge solution overcomes challenges posed by shading and uneven terrain on non-residential projects and offers 99% inverter efficiency, reduced balance of system costs, and increased energy production.

SunRenu, the Arizona-based EPC company that installed the system, selected SolarEdge's 330-kW inverter for its ability to mitigate voltage drop, minimize power degradation, and streamline installation. The higher power output of the inverter also decreased the number of inverters needed, resulting in lower installation costs. SolarEdge's technology met stringent safety standards and gained trust from the local utility company, aligning with the customer's commitment to innovation, safety, and operational efficiency. DC-optimization is expected to be critical in maximizing ROI and bringing value to community solar projects.
