Tigo Power now hosts a 90-kW photo voltaic system atop its headquarters in California. The system was designed and deployed by Laibach Photo voltaic. The system is supplied with 180 Tigo TS4-A-O MLPE gadgets, the Tigo Entry Level (TAP) and the Tigo Cloud Join Superior (CCA) information logging gadget.
The 90-kW system design, which incorporates 180 500-W photo voltaic modules and a Solectria inverter, needed to overcome important shading challenges from current roof options. By deploying its personal expertise, the efficiency of the system on the Tigo headquarters will solely be minimally impacted by shading all through the day and be additional boosted by Tigo Reclaimed Power expertise. Tigo may also profit from module-level monitoring and superior fast shutdown security measures to guard photo voltaic professionals, constructing upkeep personnel, and first responders.
“We’ve got used Tigo merchandise on many tasks through the years due to the standard and design flexibility they ship, and it was nice to design a system for the Tigo headquarters the place we had been in a position to overcome shading constraints from the barrier wall constructions with their very own expertise,” mentioned Dejan Obradovic, proprietor at Laibach Photo voltaic. “Whereas this technique is clearly one thing of a crown jewel for us as a photo voltaic set up firm, there is no such thing as a doubt that the strain can also be on, which is why we’re utilizing the Power Intelligence monitoring platform and Tigo EI Skilled to regulate issues.”
With the Tigo Power Intelligence monitoring platform, Laibach Photo voltaic and Tigo Power have full management and visibility over the set up. This platform not solely permits Tigo to observe reclaimed power and shading occurrences but additionally gives optimization insights, guaranteeing the system operates at its peak effectivity. The Tigo Power Intelligence Portal provides perception into reclaimed power, or the quantity of power that may have been misplaced as a result of shading and any module mismatch. On typical sunny days, the rooftop system on the Tigo headquarters is projected to reclaim a median of roughly 14 kWh every day.
“I wish to thank the workforce at Laibach Photo voltaic for the good system design and a really high-quality set up, significantly because it pertains to overcoming a difficult mixture of shading and allowing constraints,” mentioned Jing Tian, chief progress officer at Tigo Power. “With the setup we have now as we speak, our photo voltaic output is being optimized to provide us the absolute best acquire within the type of Reclaimed Power, which helps us continually shave off of the facility demand we’d have for the grid. This technique is strictly the sort of end result {that a} dedication to Complete High quality Photo voltaic can produce.”
