VDE 4130 Certification: Official Presentation for 255 kW Utility Scale Inverter

At the Solis stand, TÜV Rheinland and the Solis utility team celebrated the presentation of the VDE 4130 certificate for the Solis-(215-255)K-EHV-5G-PLUS high-voltage inverter. This critical certification is essential for solar installations in Germany and many other European countries. The inverter series improves PV power plant yields from high-quality solar panels, including bifacials, and features a fuse-less design and IP66 protection.

With a 14 MPPT/12 MPPT topology and a maximum efficiency of 99%, it supports a DC/AC ratio of 200%. Also on display was the 350k, which offers up to 99% efficiency, supports 12/16 MPPTs, 32 inputs, 20A string current, and 150% DC/AC ratio. The rugged construction of both inverters makes them ideal for the challenging environments common to utility-scale projects around the world.

Energy security, cost of living and cybersecurity dominate the conversation

The exhibition offered a wide range of discussions, from DIY balcony installations and commercial and industrial (C&I) storage solutions to intelligent software integration and cybersecurity. Solis unveiled its S6-GR1P(0.8)K-UM, a compact balcony inverter tailor-made for the German market. Lightweight and easy to install, this inverter is suitable for various PV module configurations and applications, including balconies, terraces, garages and outdoor projects, providing an easy-to-use solution for sustainable living.

In addition, Solis presented its latest range of hybrid inverters. The S6-EH3P(8-15)KL, S6-EH3P(12-20)KH and the powerful S6-EH3P(30-50)KH inverters, compatible with battery models from global brands such as BYD, LG Energy Solutions, Dyness and Pylon Tech offer flexibility in system selection and help reduce energy costs for homeowners and businesses.

SolisCloud: Advanced online platform for commissioning and monitoring

SolisCloud, an online platform for commissioning and monitoring, was also highlighted. This platform enables seamless management of Solis installations for installers, O&M providers and system owners.
