Alencon’s unique technology for large scale power conversion receives pan-European patent protection
Hatboro, PA – Alencon Systems LLC is proud to announce it has been issued a pan-European patent for its unique Harmonic Neutralization inverter design under European Patent Number EP 232 691 B1. This latest patent jurisdiction award follows a number of other countries that have granted Alencon patents on its unique approach to building large scale inverters that can be deployed in power blocks of 10 MW or more. Other countries where Alencon holds patents on its large-scale inverter include the United States., China, Australia, Japan, Korea and Israel.
Alencon’s Grid Inverter Package – the GrIP – is a 10MW central PV inverter, the largest available on the market today. The GrIP uses Alencon’s Patented Harmonic Neutralization technology to shatter the barriers of price, reliability, efficiency and size of traditional PWM-based PV inverters.
“In an environment where traditional PV inverters have become commoditized, Alencon has continued to focus on strengthening its intellectual property position in order to be able to offer the market a unique solution at a highly compelling price point on a cents per watt basis,” commented Alencon President Hanan Fishman. “Though we are still a smaller player in the industry, we have developed a patented portfolio of IP that would be the envy of many, far larger organizations.”
