Enphase Microinverters Power 123kW Commercial Solar Power Installation

Enphase Energy, the leader in microinverter systems, and Premier
Power Renewable Energy, Inc. (OTCBB: PPRW), a leading global
provider of solar power systems, announced the completion of a
123kW, ground-mounted solar power system for the Truckee Sanitary
District, a wastewater utility in California's Sierra Nevada
Mountains.
"The benefits of increased reliability while operating under
harsh conditions, and the ability to manage the performance of each
module, were key considerations in choosing the Enphase system,"
says Mark Santos, Premier Power Senior Renewable Energy Specialist.
"The Enphase Microinverter System was ideal for this installation,
where altitude, temperature, snow and transient debris present
frequent challenges to system performance."
Enphase Microinverter Systems convert the DC output of a single
solar module into grid-compliant AC power. Enphase systems maximize
energy harvest, increase system reliability, are easier to design,
install and manage, and are safer than systems installed with
traditional inverters. Tests have demonstrated that Enphase
Microinverters deliver five to 25 percent more energy harvest than
traditional, centralized inverters. In addition, a proprietary
communication technology is embedded into each microinverter,
enabling continuous, remote, per-module monitoring to maximize
energy production.
"Commercial facility owners value the increased productivity and
reliability they get with an Enphase Microinverter system," says
Raghu Belur, vice president of marketing, Enphase. "Easier
installation and dramatically lower balance-of-system (BOS) costs
are compelling integrators to evaluate and deploy the Enphase
technology in systems ranging from hundreds of kilowatts to
megawatts in size."
The Enphase Microinverter System allows solar installers to
design systems based solely on customer needs, rather than around
the physical restrictions imposed by traditional inverters. This is
particularly valuable for larger commercial installations, where
expansive systems would incur greater balance-of-system (BOS) and
labor costs to locate, install, and house sizeable inverters. The
Enphase Microinverter System dramatically improves system
reliability and availability, a paramount concern for commercial
site owners.
"The Truckee Sanitary District and Mother Nature placed some
very demanding requirements on us, but the Premier Power design and
operations team rose to each of these challenges and created a high
output engineering marvel that we, TSD, and Enphase will view with
pride for generations," added Mr. Santos.
