In the case of Euskadiko Orkestra, through this collaboration we have for many years been establishing a meeting point between the industrial company and the world of culture. The case of a symphony orchestra and its operation is one of the best examples of teamwork, which is also the basis of our way of working. The result is spectacular. As have been the different concerts conducted by the prestigious conductor Robert Treviño on this occasion in the performance of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 2, nicknamed "Resurrection", accompanied by two vocal soloists, the soprano, Sarah Fox, and the mezzo-soprano, Justina Gringyte, as well as the luxury of having the Orfeón Donostiarra and its many members on stage. A delight for our ears and eyes. The three auditoriums were filled with an audience totally devoted to the masterly performance. And they were attended by various representatives of the different institutions and business network of the Basque Country such as Bingen Zupiria, Minister of the Department of Culture and Linguistic Policy of the Basque Government, Iñigo Ansola, Director General of the Ente Vasco de Energía, Alberto Fernández, Director of Technology and Innovation of the Basque Government, Eneko Goia, Mayor of San Sebastian, Manuel Salaverria, President of the Basque Innovation Agency (Innobasque), Fernando Irigoyen, General Manager of Kutxabank, Pedro Esnaola and Javier Zubia, President and Director of the Gipuzkoa Chamber of Commerce respectively, among others. They were accompanied by the President of Ingeteam, Teresa Madariaga, the CEO of Ingeteam, Adolfo Rebollo and the Director of Corporate Development of Ingeteam, Alex Belaustegi. Video commemorating a decade of collaboration between Ingeteam and the Euskadiko Orkestra. ABOUT THE MUSICAL PIECE With this programme, the Euskadiko Orkestra rescues a work that had to be suspended when the pandemic began in 2020, and whose recovery acquires great symbolic value. It is Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 2, nicknamed "Resurrection", which took the Bohemian composer six years of work and which, in its hour and a half duration, traverses an extraordinary soundscape shaped by reflection on life and death. In it, Mahler also introduced for the first time the human voice and the ultraterrestrial theme, which will be central to much of his later symphonic output. Robert Treviño, who has enjoyed great success on international stages conducting Mahler, will be joined by two vocal soloists specialising in his music, soprano Sarah Fox and mezzo-soprano Justina Gringyte, and by a choir that has performed this symphony all over the world and has made it its calling card: the Orfeón Donostiarra.

The prototype 50 kW stack electrolyser was put into operation in 2012 with a 200 kW plant. Testing, which was conducted at the National Hydrogen Centre in Puertollano, Ciudad Real, focused on validating the electrolyser technology and developing control algorithms to optimise the efficiency and life of the electrolyser. Ageing tests and monitoring continue to be conducted 24/7, i.e. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at the National Hydrogen Centre. Ingeteam's technology is present in the very first electrolyser in Spain, which still produces hydrogen to this day. That electrolyser was developed between 2006 and 2012 at the Sarriguren innovation park (Navarre), in a project developed jointly by Ingeteam and Acciona Energía. Following project completion with the installation of the first 50 kW prototype at the National Hydrogen Centre, Ingeteam took time to reflect on what its value proposition in the green hydrogen sector should be, to ensure that its technology contributes to the decarbonisation of energy and to making hydrogen a truly clean energy vector. During electrolysis, the process conducted by the electrolyser, water molecules are split into hydrogen and oxygen by the supply of electrons. The power and control electronics for the supply of electric current are therefore key to the production of green hydrogen via electrolysis. The technology used to supply electrons into the water has a major impact on the efficiency and lifetime of the electrolyser. On the other hand, electrical conversion technology ensures the proper integration of a green hydrogen production plant into the electricity grid. Considering Ingeteam's extensive experience in power electronics for large renewable energy generation plants, at which the company already has 80 GW of grid-connected converters, and Ingeteam's presence and knowledge relating to more than ten electrical conversion applications, it is clear that Ingeteam's value proposition resides in its role as a strategic partner in power and control electronics technology for electrolyser manufacturers. Given that power and control electronics are one of the key electrolyser subsystems, Ingeteam’s Green H2 mission is to contribute with its electrical conversion technology to make green hydrogen competitive, and to facilitate the integration of large hydrogen production plants in grids with a high penetration of renewable energies. Harkaitz Ibaiondo, director of Ingeteam's green hydrogen business, stated that "at Ingeteam we are proud to have been pioneers, once again, in a technology that we developed and which is currently set to play a fundamental role in the decarbonisation of energy, such as the production of green hydrogen". In this regard, the executive added that "our extensive experience in the field of power electronics applied to renewable energy generation places us in a very good position to face this new challenge. Which, coupled with our in-depth knowledge of electrolyser technology and the technical requirements for powering it, makes us a leading player in this field, with a unique value proposition in the market". It is worth noting that Ingeteam is celebrating its 50th anniversary positioning itself as a key player in the energy transition.

Fri, 06 May 2022 07:15:00 GMT f1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:3358 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3359/language/en-US/Ingeteam-is-to-supply-one-of-the-largest-battery-systems-in-Europe.aspx#Comments 0 https://www.ingeteam.com/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=3366&ModuleID=3021&ArticleID=3359 https://www.ingeteam.com:443/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=3359&PortalID=1&TabID=3366 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3359/language/en-US/Ingeteam-is-to-supply-one-of-the-largest-battery-systems-in-Europe.aspx Once connected, this battery system will be one of the largest in Europe and in the world, given that it will have a rated capacity of 340 MWh. Ingeteam has been selected as the technology partner to equip the largest energy storage system in Italy, which will also be one of the largest and most important systems in Europe and in the world. This battery system will have a power output of 70 MW and an installed capacity of 340 MWh. The project, which is to be installed in northern Italy, is set to start operating in 2023 and will serve to support the country's power grid. This concept is based on a market associated with the wholesale electricity market in which certain generators are paid to maintain energy in reserve in order to cover peaks in electricity demand. This project is a real landmark, given that it will offer an energy storage capacity that was almost inconceivable until a very short time ago. The development of this battery system will play a very significant role in the medium/long term with regard to grid support. Furthermore, it will be a key factor in the process for the decarbonization of Italy, as determined by the PNIEC (Piano Nazionale Integrato per l’Energia e il Clima), which was recently approved by the Italian government. In this respect, Stefano Domenicali, managing director of Ingeteam Italy, highlighted the fact that "this project in itself represents the energy transition towards a renewable energy-based model, in which energy storage plays a fundamental role. It is necessary to promote the transition to a new energy model decisively and ambitiously, and not only to achieve a clean energy model but also because renewables are the most competitive generating technology, as well as being the drivers of local employment and the only ones to ensure that each country can achieve energy independence". It is important to note that the power stations to be installed in this project are fully European in manufacture, as well as the integration of the batteries in containers. Ingeteam is thereby strengthening its facet as an integrator, given the fact that it will supply the lithium-ion batteries integrated in containers and the power stations that include, together with the converters and control solutions of the Ingeteam make, the additional elements required for medium voltage connection (transformer, switchgear and ancillary services). Moreover, Ingeteam will perform the field assembly of the storage system and its subsequent commissioning.  Ingeteam recently commissioned the Arañuelo III photovoltaic plant, the first large-scale PV plant in Spain to incorporate an energy storage system, comprising a 3MW / 9 MWh battery system in this case. As well as being the first large-scale solar plant in Spain to incorporate batteries, this project offered a further innovative feature with the inclusion of the battery storage system within the PV plant as a distributed system with a DC-Coupling configuration. In this mode, the batteries are installed within the solar array and the battery converters share the DC connection with the PV inverters. The role of energy storage Storage associated with renewable technologies plays a key role in progressing in the energy transition and in the electrification of the economy. Its integration in the power system of the future will provide important advantages such as the optimization and more flexible use of the energy available, improvement in the quality of the electricity supply, integration of the energy generated by renewable sources and ensuring the stability and reliability of the grid. The availability of energy storage systems makes it possible (among other things and as a more basic application) to store excess energy at times of high production and low demand, and to use the stored energy at times of insufficient production and high demand.  In this respect, Ingeteam is not limited to the supply of the power electronics, batteries and other associated equipment. Instead, it is a flexible and competitive technology partner, able to provide solutions to its customers' needs in all sectors and applications in which its customers are present, and at all the project development stages.  Ingeteam's scope of supply for the battery project in Italy: 59 battery containers, fully integrated with the ancillary systems for cooling, automatic fire detection and extinguishing, etc. Each container will have rated values of 2.88 MW / 5.76 MWh. 15 power stations fitted with all the necessary equipment to inject medium voltage power: inverters of the Ingeteam make, LV/MV transformer, medium voltage switchgear, auxiliary services transformer and auxiliary services switchgear. 59 INGECON® SUN STORAGE Power Series B battery inverters.

Previously, the hamlet only had access to electricity for 4 hours a day, but Ingeteam provided equipment and services to install a solar energy supply and storage system. The quality of life for the 750 inhabitants of Vila Restauração in the Amazon improved considerably, having transitioned from a mere 4 hours of electricity a day to an uninterrupted supply. Moreover, the energy they now have at their disposal is clean, as opposed to their previous reliance on a diesel generator unit. This R&D project was developed by Alsol Energias Renováveis ​​(Energisa Group company). The energy generation and storage system consist of four solar inverters with their respective solar panels; four storage inverters with their respective battery banks; two biodiesel generator units and low-voltage switchgear for microgrid automation and protection. System operation During the day photovoltaic power generation not only supplies electricity to the hamlet but also recharges the batteries that will come into operation later in the day. Therefore, during the night the hamlet is powered by the batteries charged during the day. What happens when it is cloudy? When it is cloudy, the battery charge is low and the photovoltaic system cannot provide enough energy to power the hamlet and recharge the batteries, at which point the generator unit is activated to provide the necessary energy to the hamlet and also charge the batteries. It should be noted that the entire operation of this microgrid, consisting of a generation system on the one hand and an energy storage system on the other, is automated. This enables systems to be created in which photovoltaic energy generation can be adjusted by varying microgrid frequency to avoid overloading battery banks and meet the demand of the hamlet's residents, thus achieving a balance between energy generation, consumption and storage Thu, 24 Mar 2022 08:10:00 GMT f1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:3337 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3333/language/en-US/Ingeteam-is-supplying-its-solar-inverters-for-two-Mercury-Renew-projects-in-Brazil-totaling-210-MWp.aspx#Comments 0 https://www.ingeteam.com/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=3366&ModuleID=3021&ArticleID=3333 https://www.ingeteam.com:443/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=3333&PortalID=1&TabID=3366 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3333/language/en-US/Ingeteam-is-supplying-its-solar-inverters-for-two-Mercury-Renew-projects-in-Brazil-totaling-210-MWp.aspx   The supply is divided into two PV plants: Brígida (80 MWp) and Bon Nome (130 MWp).   The solar inverters were manufactured at Ingeteam's PV plant located in the state of São Paulo, and the medium voltage skids were also assembled in Brazil.   Ingeteam has already concluded the supply of 108 solar inverters made in Brazil and 32 substations or power stations also assembled in the country. The supply was directed at two PV projects from Mercury Renew, a Grupo Comerc Energia company. The Brígida 80 MWp solar plant, that has been operating since April last year and was inaugurated in July by the minister of Mines and Energy and the minister of Tourism. The Bon Norme 130 MWp solar plant has been commissioned now. Both plants are part of the same solar complex located in the state of Pernambuco.   For these photovoltaic projects, Ingeteam has supplied 32 power stations of the INGECON SUN MSK model. Each contains various solar inverters, power transformer, medium voltage switchgear, auxiliary services panel and auxiliary services transformer. José Nardi, the solar business unit manager at Ingeteam Brasil, emphasized that "these contracts, as well as being iconic projects for our subsidiary, are also great news for driving the industry and local Brazilian employment, given that we're the only solar inverter manufacturer to produce locally in the country".

Ingeteam was the technology partner selected by Iberdrola to equip the Campo Arañuelo solar complex. In the case of Arañuelo plants I and II, the supply was the usual one for a PV plant: PV inverters, transformer stations, PPC (power plant controller) system and commissioning. The novelty of the project relates to Arañuelo III given that, in addition to all the above, Ingeteam also completed the turnkey supply of the energy storage system. In other words, Ingeteam supplied the lithium-ion batteries, the integration of the batteries in the 45-foot containers, the converters, the SCADA monitoring system, the civil work, the field assembly of the storage system and its subsequent commissioning. Furthermore, Ingeteam was also responsible for the supply of the digital protection and control system for the Arañuelo III substation. The scope of supply included the systems responsible for the protection and control of the line delivering power to the grid from the plant, the 30/132kV step-up transformer, the collector circuits and the connection circuit for the energy storage system, providing the renewable energy control centre (CORE) with real-time information and access to any of the elements. A new battery converter As well as being the first large-scale solar plant in Spain to incorporate batteries, this project offers a further novel feature with the inclusion of the battery storage system within the PV plant as a distributed system with a DC-Coupling configuration. In this mode, the batteries are installed within the solar array and the battery converters share the DC connection with the PV inverters, offering the following key technical advantages: Possibility of utilizing the extra power from the solar panels that is not used in the peak production hours (Clipping Recapture). This makes it possible to minimize the losses by charging the batteries from the PV array, given that the connection between the panels and the batteries only passes through the DC/DC converter. The discharge is also more efficient, due to the fact that no power transformer is required, in contrast to the AC connected solution. This novel technique to create a hybrid PV generation system with battery energy storage, was made possible thanks to the development by Ingeteam of a new battery converter: the DC-DC series of the INGECON SUN STORAGE Power family. This converter is coupled to the DC input of a PV inverter, thereby obtaining in practice a hybrid central inverter with a direct coupling to the solar panels and batteries alike and with a single AC output that is coupled to the LV/MV transformer. The Campo Arañuelo complex is already producing clean energy to supply a population equivalent to 65,000 homes a year and will prevent the release into the atmosphere of 41,000 tons of CO2 each year. Scope of supply for the Campo Arañuelo PV complex 29 power stations fitted with all the necessary equipment to inject medium voltage power: LV/MV transformer, medium voltage switchgear, auxiliary services transformer and auxiliary services switchgear. 72 units of the INGECON® SUN 1640TL B630 solar inverter with a rated power output of 1.64 MW.

Ingeteam's three-phase inverters INGECON SUN 20TL M, INGECON SUN 33TL M, INGECON SUN 100TL PRO and INGECON SUN 160TL PRO are already being manufactured with these new improvements, which allow them to withstand a higher input current to be able to use them with the new models of more powerful photovoltaic panels. This means savings in DC cabling in the entire photovoltaic plant, since as each inverter admits more current per string, the total number of strings required is reduced. This also leads to savings in construction work. Thus, solar inverters between 20 and 33 kW with two Maximum Power Point Trackers (MPPT) now support up to 12A for each PV connector. The INGECON SUN 100TL PRO solar inverter supports up to 15A per connector, while the INGECON SUN 160TL PRO inverter now supports a maximum current of 20A per photovoltaic connector. This inverter designed for large photovoltaic plants is suitable for solar panel models designed with both 182 mm and 210 mm wafers, which already exceed 600 W of power. For these types of plants, Ingeteam also offers the String Station, a turnkey LV-to-MV transformer station with 1500 Vdc string inverters.

This is a Hazitek project, co-financed through the European Regional Development Fund 2014-2020 (ERDF). Ingeteam expects the first ship with this technology to start operating in 2022.   Ingeteam is immersed in a new R&D development to stabilise ships during heavy part loading and unloading manoeuvres, mainly for oil platforms or offshore wind farms. It involves a new advanced control system for ships transporting high-tonnage parts, which performs a comprehensive analysis of on board elements when the vessel's crane is used for loading and unloading manoeuvres, and which automatically compensates the water in hold tanks to stabilise the vessel. The project has gained €500,000 in investment, and the support of the Basque Government's Hazitek Business R&D programme and the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). It should be noted that these heavy Floating Crane Installation Vessels specialise in the transport of parts for offshore oil platforms or offshore wind turbines and can have a considerable tonnage. Unlike jackup rigs, crane vessels are faster at facilities as they do not use anchor legs, although they do require stability and positioning control due to the large size and weight of the parts they handle. Loading and unloading manoeuvres are delicate, as the crane can cause the vessel to heel or even sink. To prevent the ship from capsizing, heeling must be compensated by a counterweight to ensure the stability of the vessel by using water to fill different hold tanks in the ship. By installing pumps in the hold, it is possible to speed up the transfer of water between on board storage compartments, and thereby act as a counterweight to adapt the load level during the operation. The new advanced control system, developed by Ingeteam, enables this weight compensation system to be automated in order to stabilise manoeuvres at sea, by employing a mathematical model capable of predicting the torsional moment, anticipating its effect, and maintaining stability. By monitoring all of the ship’s elements via the installation of sensors, real-time measurements can be obtained of the ship's inclination, or tank levels, and used to produce a simulation of the distribution of the weight and forces in the ship. The system operates pumps to transfer the water between the different tanks, counteracting any possible imbalances that may be created during a manoeuvre. This project, called Antiheeling 4.0, represents a breakthrough in the sector, as it automates stabilisation by controlling ship ballast and draught during loading and unloading operations at sea, thus ensuring safer and more effective manoeuvres. Ingeteam expects the first ship with this technology to start operating in 2022. To better visualise its operation, Ingeteam has created a digital twin of the first vessel where the system will be installed, with a crane capable of handling weights of 5,000 tonnes. This will make it possible to simulate the behaviour of the system and conduct testing, and thereby improve its performance and efficiency before implementation.

This scheme is aligned with Ingeteam's sustainability goals, as it not only avoids the use of herbicides but also fosters the development of local livestock farming. "Solar grazing" keeps 265 MW of solar power plants working on a site of around 700 hectares, reducing maintenance costs and eliminating environmental impact.   Ingeteam is engaged in a pioneering scheme for the maintenance of photovoltaic solar power plants that involves working with local shepherds. This mutual assistance system enables Ingeteam to offer more sustainable, environmentally-friendly maintenance and foster the development of rural areas at the same time. The production of solar power as a sustainable resource has been given a boost in recent years. Ingeteam Service maintains around 8 GW of PV output at more than 550 solar plants all over the world, making it one of the sector's leading service providers. However, there are still challenges to be tackled in large-scale solar power plant operation and maintenance. Solar panels need space, occupying land traditionally used for farming. Grass, weeds and other vegetation cast shadows that prevent plants from running optimally. Sites also need to be mown, cleared and cleaned up, which means that someone must access the restricted areas below the facilities. Herbicides need to be used to prevent uncontrolled growth of vegetation and ensure that PV farms work properly. Solar grazing In this context, Ingeteam has set up a solar grazing scheme, consisting of having flocks of sheep grazing on PV farms. This keeps 265 MW of solar power plants working on a site of around 700 hectares, reducing maintenance costs and eliminating the environmental impact caused by conventional methods. Using sheep as a natural way of helping to maintain plants is in line with Ingeteam's environmentally-friendly principles, but it also has clear advantages. For instance, grazing helps keep down the vegetation around the panels, thus ensuring consistent, optimum performance at the plant; it eliminates the need for machinery and chemicals; and it enables local sheep farmers to share the land used for renewable energy production. The presence of shepherds on the site also reduces the risk of theft. The panels provide shade, protection and shelter for pregnant ewes, foster development and prevent population loss in rural areas.

Ingeocean offers a set of innovative technologies for offshore wind farm simulation, integrating environmental databases, advanced software and Ingeteam's wind farm operation experience and know-how.       Ingeteam has developed a set of innovative technologies for the optimisation of activities related to the operation and maintenance of offshore wind farms, reducing uncertainty and operating costs. Ingeocean, as an advanced software tool, integrates historical environmental databases, and enables analysis of different scenarios, facilitating decision-making during the construction, operation and maintenance of offshore wind farms. Offshore wind energy is one of the renewable energy sector's main commitments for the coming decades. Offshore platforms make it possible, producing a greater amount of wind energy in less time, but they require a large investment due to the marine environment where they are installed. Construction, operation and maintenance-related activities require specialised vessels and qualified equipment, with more complicated and unsafe access for technical personnel. To improve decision-making both before and during platform installation and operation, Ingeteam has developed Ingeocean in conjunction with the Environmental Hydraulics Institute of the University of Cantabria (IHCantabria), an advanced tool aimed at analysing variables and influencing factors, to support the parties involved (investors, developers, builders, supply chain, etc.) by answering questions such as: what type of offshore wind project should be implemented? Where should it be located, and what should its characteristics be? This innovative tool analyses, on one hand, the usual wind turbine operational errors, and on the other hand, a series of meteorological and environmental factors such as waves, currents, and wind, as well as the offshore behaviour of the system comprised of the auxiliary vessels and wind farm structures during personnel transfer between them. Thanks to indicators such as average repair and wait times, as well as other dynamics specific to the offshore environment such as navigability to the farm, it is possible to statistically analyse different technical O&M alternatives in the face of a wide variety of possible operational scenarios for the farm. This facilitates decision-making during the preliminary phases of the development of an offshore wind farm project, as well as during its construction, operation, and maintenance. Ingeocean not only facilitates decision-making during the development of an offshore wind farm but also reduces operation and maintenance costs by providing accurate information regarding the best times to carry out such tasks. Ingeocean is a pioneering and innovative tool that constitutes an important advance in the sector. Compared to other tools that focus solely on the analysis of metocean parameters, this innovative solution integrates data and statistics on the reliability of critical wind farm elements and considers the offshore behaviour of the vessel-platform system, thereby providing a realistic picture of the phenomena that take place and the risks present. It also provides a reliable picture of the cost projections associated with such activities, enabling the customisation and optimisation of operation and maintenance strategies for any offshore wind farm.   Fri, 06 Aug 2021 07:00:00 GMT f1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:3217 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3219/language/en-US/Iberdrola-Disfrimur-and-Ingeteam-will-develop-the-first-Mediterranean-Corridor-for-100-electric-heavy-transport.aspx#Comments 0 https://www.ingeteam.com/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=3366&ModuleID=3021&ArticleID=3219 https://www.ingeteam.com:443/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=3219&PortalID=1&TabID=3366 https://www.ingeteam.com/it/Redazione/tabid/3366/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/3219/language/en-US/Iberdrola-Disfrimur-and-Ingeteam-will-develop-the-first-Mediterranean-Corridor-for-100-electric-heavy-transport.aspx The initiative would complete more than 450 km of emission-free route between the Region of Murcia and the Valencian Community and plans to be extended to the rest of the freight corridors in the country. The project includes the acquisition of heavy trucks, the development of innovative, very high power charging infrastructure (1 MW electric chargers) and the deployment of a smart grid.   The first Mediterranean Corridor for heavy road transport, 100% electric, will run through the Region of Murcia and the Valencian Community. However, the aim of this initiative includes its extension to the rest of the country's freight corridors in the coming years. Among the main promoters of this project are Iberdrola, the transport and logistics company Disfrimur and Ingeteam. Our job as a company specialised in power electronics will be the development of charging infrastructure for the entire corridor. We will be responsible for the installation of charging points at Disfrimur's logistics bases and at other stations equipped with very high-power chargers for the intercity route. The initiative includes two further objectives: the acquisition of 100% electric heavy trucks weighing up to 40 tons and the deployment of a smart grid in order to service the installed chargers, ensuring maximum efficiency. The electric charging stations will initially be located at Disfrimur's logistics centres in Sangonera La Seca (Murcia) and San Isidro (Alicante). As the project progresses, new chargers will be deployed en route and at other Disfrimur logistics bases, covering the entire Benicarló (Castellón) - Puerto Lumbreras (Murcia) route. In total, there will be more than 450 km of road for the emission-free transport of goods. Very high power chargers (up to 1 MW) The project is also a pioneer in the development and use of very high power electric chargers, up to 1 MW, a technology that is in the process of standardisation. At Ingeteam we are developing recharging points following the future MCS (Megawatt Charging System) standard. This new protocol is aimed at fast charging (20-30 minutes) of heavy vehicles such as trucks or buses with batteries with a capacity of 200-600 KWh. In order to work properly, the charging voltage will be raised to 1,500V and current to more than 1,000A. Want to know more about our chargers for electric vehicles? Click here!

The Chamalire village school in Malawi finally has an electricity supply thanks to the project implemented by the Zikomo Africa NGO. The village is located close to the parish of Benga in the central area of the country. This project has made it possible to improve not only the students’ possibilities of studying but also the quality of life and working conditions of the teaching staff, as they now have light and electricity in their homes. Nine teachers' homes and one girls' dormitory, built so that young girls no longer need to face the dangers of travelling a number of kilometers to their home villages at night, are also now benefiting from this clean energy system. Until now, neither the school nor any other building in Chamalire had an electricity supply. The installation has 20 solar panels which generate 7.2 kW of solar power, and a lithium battery energy storage system with a capacity of 19.3 kWh. The Ingeteam hybrid inverter, equipped with an EMS energy management system, is responsible for controlling the entire energy supply to the installation. The INGECON SUN STORAGE 6TL M inverter, with a rated power output of 6 kW, features two photovoltaic inputs for up to 11.5 kW of solar power, and a battery input that is valid for high voltage and low voltage batteries alike. Although in this case the inverter is functioning as a stand-alone system, it can also operate in grid-connected systems in either self-consumption or back-up mode. Ingeteam has highlighted the good work of the Zikomo Africa NGO in Malawi and the ease with which this collaboration has been performed, coming within the framework of the corporate social responsibility (CSR) actions that Ingeteam assiduously carries out.

Political authorities in the majority of countries around the world have finally got down to work and established guidelines to support this transition. Particularly in Europe, the strategy outlined in "The Green Deal" will allocate a large portion of the "Next Generation EU" recovery plan investment to finance this transition. The other factor in solving the equation is technological development. In this sense, a clear effort has been made in the past few years to obtain increasingly competitive technology solutions related to renewable energies and electrification. Therefore, it has been possible to offer the market renewable generation solutions that are more competitive for the same installed power capacity than conventional generation facilities, and electrical energy has increased its share of consumption like never before with electric mobility, industrial heating and cooling, storage, etc. The pace of deployment of the electricity infrastructure needed to accommodate new generation assets, electricity interconnections, new electricity consumers, self-consumption, etc., is key to facilitating investment in the technological development of the energy industry supply chain. This phenomenon must consider the specific reality of electricity generation based on the natural environment. Thus, conditions at certain geographical locations will be more favourable for the implementation of new generation plants: wind, solar photovoltaic, hydroelectric, biomass or biofuel. Energy conversion technology must be developed to offer the best possible solutions in each case. In this sense, work is ongoing on power electronics platforms and electric generators to establish the optimal combinations that will provide the best yields from available energy sources: sun, wind, water, biomass. On the other end of the power transmission line, lie electricity consumers, and therein lies the other energy challenge: achieve the most efficient possible consumption of available energy. Once again, energy conversion systems must be intelligently applied to current and future energy consumption needs, electric vehicles (road and rail), maritime electric propulsion systems for all types of vessels, and in the not-so-distant future, air transport. Hydrogen has recently gained momentum as an energy application vector to be developed in the near future. The challenges posed by energy for human beings are many, but thanks to power conversion technology we will be capable of meeting them to ensure sustainability. Always through the prism of renewable energies. As we have been saying for some years now at Ingeteam, “the future will be renewable, or there won’t be a future”. Our challenge is to place electrical and electronic technology at the service of the evolution required by the new solutions for harnessing renewable resources so that this almost infinite natural resource can be channelled towards achieving the final goal of electrical energy consumption: clean consumption.

Ingeteam and BYD have tested and certified at their respective R&D laboratories, the compatibility of the BYD Battery-Box Premium HVS and HVM high voltage batteries with Ingeteam's INGECON® SUN STORAGE 1Play TL M hybrid inverter (solar-plus-storage inverter). The use of both items of equipment together makes it possible to create hybrid systems that combine PV power generation with energy storage, with no need to add additional solar PV inverters. Moreover, Ingeteam's hybrid inverter, in combination with the BYD batteries, allows for operation in off-grid, back-up (UPS) and self-consumption modes. Thus, for grid-connected systems, the solar energy generated during the day can be stored for night-time consumption, giving the highest possible self-consumption ratios and, thanks to the possibility of operating in backup mode (UPS), the power supply is maintained in the event of a grid outage. The BYD high-voltage lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, with capacities ranging from 5.1 kWh to 22.1 kWh (depending on the model) are designed for residential and commercial use. Their patented modular plug-in design makes it possible to connect the different battery modules with no need for wiring, making installation incredibly quick and easy. Specifically, the following BYD battery models are compatible with the Ingeteam hybrid inverter: HVS (5.1, 7.7 and 10.2) and HVM (8.3, 11.0, 13.8, 16.6, 19.3 and 22.1). For its part, the Ingeteam inverter makes it possible to connect a battery bank and two PV arrays to the same unit, thereby reducing the cost of the system as a whole. It features two PV inputs, each of which has its own maximum power point tracking system (MPPT), allowing it to manage up to 11.5 kW of power from the solar panels which can be roof-mounted with two orientations. This 3 or 6 kW single-phase transformerless inverter has been designed for use in residential and commercial installations alike. Moreover, this inverter is supplied with the EMS control system as standard, allowing it to deploy advanced functionalities with no need to add another device for additional control. The monitoring of the hybrid system is carried out easily and intuitively thanks to the software developed by Ingeteam: INGECON® SUN Monitor, which allows access to all the data of the photovoltaic installation, the batteries, etc., so that the user has total control over his/her electricity consumption.
