SOITEC LAUNCHES 5 th GENERATION OF CONCENTRIX™ CPV SYSTEMS


New Configuration Reduces Costs for Power Utilities




The fi fth generation of Concentrix™ systems, designed to raise efficiencies as high as 30 % and lower the cost of electricity, is now available from Soitec.

The 28-kW tracker with more than 100 square meters of module area leverages Soitec’s proven CPV components while reducing the total number of parts per system.
This makes installation easier and faster.

The new configuration also offers utilities a path to lower costs and quicker installation by using an innovative “building block” approach developed by Soitec and its partners. Units can be clustered in a block with more than 1-MW capacity, with each block using a pair of centralized inverters. This design strategy significantly reduces construction and maintenance costs.  •
