SMA at Intersolar: Innovations from the Kilowatt to the Megawatt

SMA will introduce a megawatt station with direct medium-voltage connection, the new Sunny Mini Central 11000TL and a first-ever look at the development department. As always, SMA is generating a lot of buzz leading up to the Intersolar trade fair. The Sunny Central 1000MV, for example, is setting a new record for price/performance ratio with a peak efficiency rating of 97.3 percent and a service life of over 20 years. And, the new Sunny Mini Central 11000TL is the perfect choice for commercial systems with capacities starting around 25 kW. Its key selling points include an option for three-phase configuration, easy installation and maintenance.

A broad spectrum of products in the 100 kW to 1.2 megawatt power range and a highlight of the megawatt class are features of SMA's innovations. The Sunny Central 1000MV not only offers direct medium-voltage connection, but also sets a new record for cost-effectiveness, thanks to its peak efficiency rating of 97.3 percent - just like the Sunny Central 100, which can achieve a peak efficiency of 97.6 percent despite having an integrated low voltage transformer. The new Sunny Mini Central 11000TL is the perfect choice for commercial systems with capacities starting around 25 kW or for the decentralized configuration of large-scale systems in the megawatt range. Its key selling points include an option for three-phase configuration, easy installation and maintenance.
Even though many companies would be thoroughly satisfied with this product range, SMA - as can be expected - is poised to unveil a number of other innovations developed over the last few months. The new Sunny Backup Set Small, for instance, can supply solar electricity to home system owners during a power failure.
Also featured is the Bluetooth-enabled Sunny Boy 4000TL and Sunny Boy 5000TL, easy-to-install universal devices with an award-winning design. Another exciting highlight: For the first time ever, SMA will offer visitors a glimpse of its development department and projects in the works.

  • Sunny Central 1000MV: megawatt station with remarkable efficiency
  • Sunny Central 100: peak efficiencies for outdoor use
  • Sunny Mini Central 11000TL: three-phase configuration with easy service and maintenance

SMA presently maintains silence on future development projects. However, at this year's Intersolar the company will proudly offer visitors a first-time glimpse into the "future of solar technology". From the 12th to the 14th of June, visitors will have a chance to see the inner workings of the SMA development department at SMA Stand 270 in Hall C4. Also, the megawatt station will be available in the FG.306 open-air area for anyone who wants to have a closer look.
