Shifting environmental factors constantly challenge the efficiency of solar arrays; dust, debris and shade can drastically lower power output. With a conventional ‘string’ inverter system, the least-performing module determines the productivity of the entire array. APsystems’ microinverters give more power, independently optimizing the output from each solar module, something that will no doubt be welcome in the shift towards carbon-free living.
In this period of global energy crisis against a backdrop of tensions and conflicts, solar technology continues to nurture the hope of our ability to implement progress towards a carbon-free world. A world in which energy will be accessible to as many people as possible. According to Solar Power Europe, the EU added a record-breaking 41.4 GW of solar power in 2022. The new capacity is equivalent to the power needs of 12.4 million European homes. Annual EU solar power growth increased by 47% from 28.1 GW in 2021.
