• Pre-programmed settings for easy integration of a lithium-based storage system, or upgrading an existing solar system to lithium
• And much more

The solar charge controller has a central role in a solar photovoltaics application: it’s actually the “brain” of your system and, as such, requires precision matching to the rest of your components.  Josh Roelofs of Unbound Solar joined the Morningstar Team in this webinar to cover the steps you need to take to choose the right charge controller for your application.  View the recording to learn about:

• Application requirements and considerations
• Feature requirements and considerations
• PWM controller sizing
• MPPT controller sizing

Mike Postel, President of Connexa, joined the Morningstar Team in this webinar to talk about solar-powered solutions for security/surveillance applications.

¿Cuáles son las consideraciones para dimensionar y diseñar sistemas solares para aplicaciones industriales? ¿Es una aplicación que requiere alta confiabilidad y disponibilidad? La selección de componentes y su compatibilidad es muy importante para el buen funcionamiento de todo el sistema. Tres factores son clave: diseño, componentes e instalación. Únase a este seminario web para obtener más información sobre:

• Consideraciones para dimensionamento
• Componentes para sistema aislados
• Compatibilidad entre controlador solar y batería
• Condicionamiento y monitoreo en geografías difíciles
• Casos de Implementation

Morningstar and SunWize cover what you need to consider before designing and deploying your next off-grid system. Solar projects vary greatly depending on application, size, location, and other factors. We’ll review a “checklist” of variables you’ll want to pencil-in on your next project including:

• Load considerations, types and sizes
• Space/easement constraints
• Array stringing and mounting options
• Battery decisions
• Charge controllers and inverters
• Accessories for communications and generator start
