Photovoltaic Inverter

IPC’s current-modulation power converter topology reduces the size and weight of conventional PV inverters by >90%. This enables dramatic reductions in the cost of materials, manufacturing, shipping and installation. Shipping and installation costs alone can be reduced up to 90% compared to conventional PV inverters, while still supporting standard grounded PV arrays.

The IPC PV inverter is also more efficient and more reliable further reducing the LCOE (Levelized Cost of Electricity).

IPC is finishing industry certifications including UL1741 and CEC efficiency tests.

PV Inverter Pilot Whitepaper

“IPC’s inverter offers an architecture that we believe will become a standard for commercial scale rooftop systems, the largest segment of the US solar market.”

- Roger Jennings, General Manager, Texas Solar Power Company.

“IPC’s current-modulation electronic power converter topology improves cost, efficiency, and reliability. It is one of the most significant advances in power electronics in decades, which is critically required for the clean-energy industry.”

– Dr. Hamid Toliyat, Professor and Director of Electric Machines & Power Electronics Lab, Texas A&M University
