Tigo MLPE to deliver best-in-class safety for
large Commercial & Industrial solar installation in central
Spain; deployed with confidence through the Green Glove quality
program.
Tigo Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: TYGO), a leading provider of
intelligent solar and energy software solutions, today announced
that premier Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) firm,
Constructora San Jose, S.A., has selected Tigo as the rapid
shutdown technology provider for a 142MWp solar installation for an
industrial ground mount in Spain. Reliable rapid shutdown
functionality is essential to providing fire safety for system
owners and eliminates the risk of encountering high-voltage DC
electricity for operations and maintenance, as well as emergency
personnel in case of contact with the system during service
intervals or in emergency situations.
The system, which will produce clean energy to help serve the
demand from local industry and feed excess energy back to the
public grid, will include more than 107,000 Tigo TS4-A-2F MLPE
devices and produce in excess of 142MWp. The project also includes
more than 550 Tigo RSS Transmitters with Pure Signal technology,
which eliminates disturbances in PLC signals from adjacent cable
runs and improves the effectiveness of system communications
functions in large and complex systems.
“With the responsibility that comes with a system of this size,
the reliability and quality of Tigo was the ideal option for rapid
shutdown safety,” said Diego Navarro, purchasing manager at
Constructora San Jose, S.A. “In contrast to roof-mounted solar
systems, the risk of contact with a ground-mounted system is
somewhat higher, which is why reliable rapid shutdown is essential.
With a project that will become part of the critical energy
infrastructure in the region, it is important to get everything
right, and the Tigo Green Glove program has provided outstanding
support service throughout the process.”
The TS4-A-2F is a reliable and cost-effective two-module rapid
shutdown solution that meets the latest module-level shutdown
requirements, including NEC 2017/2020. The TS4-A-2F is both IEC and
UL-certified for global acceptance and UL-PVRSS-certified for
connectivity with the largest network of inverters. Constructora
San Jose selected the TS4-A-2F to support the 670W modules used in
the project, which will be under construction during the second
half of 2024, with commissioning expected in the first half of
2025.
“It is an honor to have won the trust of Constructora San Jose,
S.A. for this project, and we look forward to delivering on Total
Quality Solar as the project moves through installation and into
the operations phase,” said Mirko Bindi, Senior VP Sales EMEA &
MD Europe at Tigo Energy Inc. “We design our technology to be both
reliable and offer design flexibility, and this system once again
shows that as system complexity and size increases, Tigo provides a
great solution. The Tigo Green Glove support team will be there for
the Constructora San Jose team throughout the project, with a focus
on end-to-end installation quality and long-term system
safety.”
The Tigo TS4 platform maximizes the benefit of PV systems for
installers on all continents. With a system size range from 2kW to
more than 100MW and installation in less than ten seconds per
module, Tigo has a trusted and reliable product portfolio deployed
around the world, from rapid shutdown to module-level monitoring
and advanced energy optimization.
