Grid-connected photovoltaics
A grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system provides reliable energy
supply from the sun. Photons from the sun create an electrical charge
on an array of solar modules. The modules are connected to an inverter,
which converts direct current (DC) into alternate current (AC). The entire
system is connected to the local electric grid and feeds in the electricity
produced by the energy from the sun.
On-grid PV installations can differ in size from small installations for
residential houses with only a few
Kilowatts of power to large-scale Megawatt
power plants. SunTechnics has installed over 5,000 turn-key
systems worldwide, including the world’s largest
roof-top power plant of 10MWp capacity for Michelin
tyre manufacturer in Germany. In Asia, SunTechnics
is installing a 20MW solar park in southwest of Seoul
for leading building company Dongyang Engineering & Construction
Corporation - a pioneer of the Korean construction
industry. When completed, this massive project will
produce a yearly total of more than 27,000 megawatt
hours of electricity, which is an important step
towards sustainable and clean energy production in
Korea.
