Renewable Energy Collector Transformers

Published by 1. Waldemar ZIOMEK, 2. Krishnamurthy VIJAYAN, PTI Transformers LP, Winnipeg, MB, Canada ORCID: 1. 0000-0002-1216-6513 Abstract. The renewable energy collector transformer (RCT) in a solar station, or a wind farm, transforms the voltage from the collector system to the transmission level voltages. As the primary goal is stepping up the voltage, the RCTContinue reading “Renewable Energy Collector Transformers”

The Critical Role of Power Quality Evaluation in Solar Installations

Published by Dranetz Technologies, Inc., Application Note EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As solar photovoltaic (PV) systems become more prevalent in commercial and industrial environments, the emphasis on financial return and concise performance expectations has rightly intensified. However, one often-overlooked aspect of solar deployment is the comprehensive evaluation of power quality (PQ)—both before and after installation. By identifying existing gridContinue reading “The Critical Role of Power Quality Evaluation in Solar Installations”
