EMCORE Releases Soliant 1000 Commercial Rooftop CPV System
2012年6月12日 - 9:25PM
EMCORE Corporation (Nasdaq:EMKR), a leading provider of compound
semiconductor-based components and subsystems for the fiber optic
and solar power markets, announced today that the EMCORE Soliant
1000 Commercial Rooftop Concentrator Photovoltaic (CPV) System is
now available for pre-production orders. The system will be
introduced and demonstrated in Europe for the first time at
Intersolar Europe, June 13-15 in hall A4, booth 242 of the Munich
Trade Fair Centre.
The EMCORE Soliant 1000 is designed to generate solar power for
commercial buildings with high energy demands. The system
offers one of the highest energy production densities of any
available solar system, making it a very cost-effective solar
solution for commercial rooftops in regions with high Direct Normal
Irradiance (DNI). EMCORE's Soliant 1000 generates more than
500 watts peak per panel (18 watts peak per square foot), requiring
approximately 28% less rooftop area than polycrystalline and
approximately 38% less rooftop area than thin-film solar panels to
generate 1000 megawatt hours (MWh) per year of energy
output. The system combines leading-edge EMCORE solar cell
technology with a patent-pending TipTilt Tracking™ system that
tracks the sun's movement all day to maximize critical peak-hour
energy output when utility energy is most expensive.
The EMCORE Soliant 1000 panels are low profile, lightweight,
non-penetrating and come fully-assembled and ready to drop-in
place. This presents a strong value proposition for
developers, integrators, and installers as more projects can be
completed in less time with lower labor and system
costs. Commercial building owners receive the benefits of the
lowest Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE), which is the final cost to
produce a kilowatt-hour of solar power, along with a system that is
designed for over 25 years of life.
"We are very excited to launch EMCORE's Soliant 1000 Commercial
Rooftop CPV System at Intersolar Europe," said Christopher Larocca,
Chief Operating Officer for EMCORE. "This announcement opens
the door for EMCORE to enter the estimated $2 billion annual
rooftop solar market. Production and deliveries are scheduled
to commence later this year and we look forward to addressing this
new segment."
The EMCORE Soliant 1000 is powered by EMCORE's proven
multi-junction solar cell technology. EMCORE is a leading
manufacturer of high-efficiency multi-junction solar cells for the
terrestrial CPV market. EMCORE's Soliant 1000 delivers
unsurpassed energy output, long-term reliability and the lowest
cost of energy from commercial rooftops.
