- 2. Today’s Agenda Solar Industry Introduction to PVI Solar Solar Power Management – How it Works Solar Signage Applications Financial Benefits
- 4. Solar Industry Global Growth Global Solar Installation - 2,826 megawatts (MW) in 2008, representing growth of 62% over the previous year. U.S. is the 4 th largest solar market but has much more solar resources than Germany.
- 5. US Solar Industry Growth Solarbuzz Market Reports – 2004 through 2008. www.solarbuzz.com Greentech Media, 2/11/08, Jon Guice, PhD and John D.H. King, MS MBA Of the 220 MW installed in 2008, grid connected solar products accounted for 190 MW. opportunity for off grid applications such as solar powered signage. 65% of the installed solar is large commercial/utility scale solar projects.
- 6. PVI Solar The Formula for Power… Power (P) = Voltage (V) * Current (I) We Put Power First
- 7. PVI Solar Overview Headquartered in Kingston, New York and incubated since 2007 Affiliated with Fala Technologies, 60 years in semiconductor and nanotech Partnered with TSEC – The Solar Energy Consortium, Non-Profit Management team has a combined 100 years of experience in high technology 100,000 square ft. of manufacturing in U.S. Sales Offices in New York, Colorado, Florida and Texas
- 8. About PVI Solar Our core technology - PowerLine™ - enables us to take solar power beyond conventional capabilities Building technologies that create practical solar powered applications Designing integrated power-system and products Providing a broad range of off-grid solar-powered products, including commercial signage and lighting
- 9. PowerLine ™ Our Premier Solution The centerpiece of PVI Solar’s power management approach Uses NASA HOMER renewable energy data and software User definable settings PowerLine manages automatic system adjustments based on current battery level and recent history of available sunlight and ambient temperature PowerLine continuously monitors vital system diagnostics to enhance power management and extend battery life
- 10. PowerLine ™ Features Uses a temperature compensating algorithm to adjust battery charging and capacity calculations Extended operating range: (-45 o F to +135 o F) Adapts to the seasons by tracking daily history of available solar energy Recognizes the difference between night/day and overcast weather or ambient light Uses pulse width modulation of LEDs to maximize system efficiency and power availability Utilizes various survival modes to perpetuate continued operation under extreme adverse conditions
- 11. Why PVI Solar? Totally Off Grid Superior Run Time 8 day duration vs. 2 - 4 days without power mgmt. Solutions designed to run perpetually Scalable, Measurable ROI Integrated Power System/Product Designs Green Marketing/Branding
