Enphase Energy powers one of India’s largest integrated solar roof

Enphase Rajasthan | T&D India

Enphase Energy, Inc. has announced the commissioning of the country’s one of the largest building integrated rooftop PV systems.

Designed, engineered and manufactured by Ornate Solar, the in-roof solar system serves as the primary roof over Pangaea Natural Stone’s newly constructed 35,000-sqft production facility, in Bagru, Rajasthan.

The 530 kWp solar rooftop system is installed with the latest generation of MLPE microinverters from Enphase Energy, a statement from Enphase Energy said.

The microinverters come with a 15-year replacement warranty and are aligned with the highest international safety standards. Enphase Energy offers an advanced solar microinverter technology, which means higher production, greater reliability, and leading intelligence. With burst mode technology, the microinverters produce more electricity even at dawn, dusk, and in low-light conditions for a longer solar day.

 

“With Enphase microinverters powering these panels, the system has generated 3.1 MWh on a single day, which is amongst the highest recorded day’s generation from a 530 kWp rooftop solar plant installed in Rajasthan.” said Sunil Thamaran, VP and MD at Enphase Energy India.

 

 

Unique system

The in-roof system is a unique and one of the first of its kind structural solutions that can integrate panels of any shape and size to replace the conventional metal roofs. Designed with proprietary architecture, these in-roof systems accommodate 26 per cent more solar panels as compared to traditional roof mounted systems. They also generate over 4-8 per cent more energy because of free air circulation which lowers module back sheet temperatures by up to 15°C.

With the revolutionary InRoof system, Canada-based Pangaea Natural Stone saved 124,968 kg of CO2 that would have been emitted in the production of the steel roof. The indigenously developed in-roof structure consists of special-purpose roll-formed continuous (SRFC) sections made from high-strength steel alloy resistant to corrosion and oxidation. The structure provides a 100 per cent guarantee against water leakage.
