Revamping of 750 kW rooftop plant

Revamping of 750 kW rooftop plant

9 Aug, 2022

Location: Bergamo, Italy
System: 750 kWp rooftop photovoltaic system
Service: Revamping of the inverter fleet with the replacement of 7 x 110 kW inverters

Investing in revamping by renewing the inverter fleet increases the energy production and profitability of the photovoltaic system.

Project

Manni Energy was contacted for the rewiring of a 750 kWp photovoltaic system built in 2010 on the roofing of an industrial warehouse.

Manni Energy's technicians, as is standard practice when approaching revamps of plants, especially older ones, analysed the entire plant and assessed the most cost-effective solution in terms of return on investment.

From the analysis of the existing configuration, characterised by centralised inverters far away from the delivery cabin, which required long cable runs that generated power losses on the way, Manni Energy designed an optimisation of the cabling at the same time as replacing the old inverters to switch from a centralised to a string architecture.

Benefits

The intervention resulted in significant savings in terms of material, the installation of new and more reliable inverters, ensuring a new and long-lasting life for the plant and a substantial increase in production.

In the four-month period after the intervention, the plant's production increased from 154,450 kWh in 2021 (pre-revamping) to 185,790 kWh in 2021, thus increasing by more than 20% after the rehabilitation.
