2. • The current technology is less efficient and less
effective
• Uses multiple sensors
• The size and complexity are also an issue that the
new technology takes care of
Current Problems
3. • Utilizes an MPPT method that requires a single sensor
• Gives allows to add extra channels using the same sensor
• This technology results in a smaller, simpler and cheaper
renewable energy system
• Extracts higher power and it has the ability to remotely
optimize multiple PV solar channels in centralized controller
Technology
4. • More efficient and effective than existing (2N)
similar products on the market
• Reduces the size and complexity of the controller
• This results in higher efficiency based on decreased
controller energy consumption, complexity and size
