Photovoltaic energy in New York

Photovoltaic facility of 240 photovoltaic panels on industrial roof in New York

The installation of the solar field covers an area of 700 m2, where the back structure was at 3 heights to optimize the roof.

A photovoltaic system is a complex project, that requires the collaboration of an engineer, for it to function properly. Besides photovoltaic panels or modules, a series of complex mechanisms, are also present. For example, an invertor, which is responsible for converting the continuous electricity generated by the plates into alternating electricity, which we use at home.

Control systems for the safety of the installation and monitoring systems to ensure its proper operation, are also needed. It´s normal, for example, to install web cams and a real time monitoring of the plant´s production, so that we can remotely control it at any time and detect potential performance failures.
