PRESS RELEASE Intersolar 2015 Solutions for 24 hours of sun (Wels, 31/03/2015) Solutions as far as the eye can see. That's what Fronius will have on display at this year's Intersolar Europe, which takes place in Munich. Between June 10th and 12th, Fronius will be presenting new products and solutions relating to project business, software, inverters, service and storage at their trade fair stand B3.230. “Intersolar Europe is a key event on our calendar every year. We are looking forward to showing visitors the latest products from Fronius. We will be exhibiting optimum solutions for current and future challenges relating to obtaining, controlling and storing power from renewable energy sources,” says Martin Hackl, head of the Solar Energy Division at Fronius International GmbH. PROJECT SOLUTIONS When it comes to project solutions, Fronius has a whole range on offer at this year's Intersolar. One of the solutions, the PV-Genset, combines diesel generators with photovoltaics in order to save fuel. The entire system is controlled by the Fronius PV system controller. Fronius also offers services for planning the PVGenset system. The Fronius Power Package is a system solution consisting of three to six Fronius Symo or two to four Fronius Eco inverters, a Fronius AC Combiner and pre-fabricated cables for the AC range and data monitoring. It is designed for project business. The advantages are easy scalability, practical spare parts management as well as easy installation and maintenance. The Fronius Eco project inverter will be launched in May 2015. Available in power categories 25 and 27 kW, the three-phase device is thus the largest in the SnapINverter range. The Fronius Agilo TL central inverter is also a must for project solutions. It is the world's only central inverter that can be repaired and maintained on-site, meaning that any outage costs are kept to a minimum. SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS As an inverter manufacturer, Fronius has been at the forefront of energy management for many years. Solutions for feed-in management and the energy management relay which is permanently integrated in the SnapINverter have become indispensable in this market, as have Fronius solutions for increasing selfconsumption. Fronius Connecting Energy stands for the high flexibility of Fronius devices which allows them to work with intelligent consumers. Thanks to their numerous open interfaces, Fronius inverters can be easily connected to third-party components, such as heat pumps or home automation systems. With cooperation partners such as Loxone home automation or Ochsner heat pumps, Fronius makes life easier for home owners. The benefits are a reduction in energy costs, an increase in self-consumption, maximum energy efficiency and easy installation. 03/2015 1/4 As of Intersolar 2015, the Fronius Solar.web Premium PV monitoring portal will boast a range of additional practical features which sit alongside the familiar functions. It will soon be possible to export the selfconsumption data and monitor at MPP tracker level. In addition to the power generation data, in the future the user will also have all self-consumption data at their disposal for all historic daily progression curves. INVERTER SOLUTIONS There is huge demand for the new and ever increasing SnapINverter generation. The innovative range already contains six devices which have made an impression with their easy installation and maintenance. In the power categories from 1.5 to 27 kVA, they are particularly sought-after thanks to their fully future-proof interface design and their flexible application. The Fronius Primo and Fronius Eco inverters will be launched in the coming months. SERVICE SOLUTIONS In the field of service solutions, customers can discover the benefits of Fronius expertise for themselves with the online SOS tool. This supports the installer during the servicing of Fronius Solar Energy products. Repowering represents another key topic for Fronius at Intersolar. This is a simple solution designed for modernising existing photovoltaic systems. It increases the PV system's performance and brings it up to date with the latest technological standards. STORAGE SOLUTIONS The Fronius Energy Package will be on display with the Fronius Symo Hybrid inverter, the Fronius Solar Battery and the Fronius Smart Meter. Two features of particular note are the high level of flexibility of the overall system and the Multi Flow Technology. Multi Flow Technology is a comprehensive approach to energy flow control, with which the inverter becomes an intelligent control centre for all current flows. With Multi Flow Technology all conceivable energy flows are possible, even at the same time. This increases self-consumption to the maximum possible level. We look forward to seeing you on our stand in Hall B3, stand no. B3.230.
