eIQ Energy Parallel Wiring for Solar System

25 January 2011

eIQ Energy has provided parallel solar technology for a 1.8 MW solar power installation at a Bee Safe Storage facility in Murrieta, CA.

The Installation will be completed by EcoOneEnergy of Escondido, CA, using crystalline solar modules driving multiple inverters.

Instead of series wiring, eIQ Energy’s parallel wiring, vBoost DC-to-DC voltage optimizer, was used.

“The Parallel Solar approach was an obvious choice for this installation,” says Eugene Wilkie, CEO of EcoOneEnergy. “It freed up our designers to focus on what would provide the best power output, rather than having to worry about string architecture and voltage management. We’re also saving a substantial amount on combiner boxes, cable and conduit, and the snap-together connection on the vBoost modules are a tremendous time-saver.”
