Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: AEIS), today announced
that its Solaron® PV inverters and SafeGuard® service program have
been selected to power a 150-megawatt project located in Arizona.
The project was awarded to Advanced Energy by Zachry Industrial,
Inc., a leading U.S. EPC provider. The Solaron PV inverters were
selected for this project through a rigorous competitive bidding
process.
“After evaluating multiple inverter options, we found Advanced
Energy provided the leading product and service offering for the
project,” said Al Hood with Zachry Industrial, Inc. “We look
forward to working with Advanced Energy on this momentous project
which reflects Zachry's commitment to the solar market.”
The project is slated to begin construction in mid-2011 and be
completed in 2013. When completed, we believe the project will be
one of the largest photovoltaic solar installations in North
America with a planned output capacity that is currently larger
than any solar PV project installed worldwide.
The project will utilize the Solaron 500kW inverters configured
as 2MW PowerStation™ solutions and will be supported by Advanced
Energy’s SafeGuard Plus inverter uptime program.
“We are honored to be selected by Zachry for such a landmark
utility-scale project,” said Gregg Patterson, Executive Vice
President and General Manager of Advanced Energy Renewables. “As
the solar industry matures, project stakeholders recognize that
high-performance, high-reliability products and services from a
bankable partner like Advanced Energy provide maximum return on
