Chapter 1: System Overview

SolarEdge Large Scale PV Plants Solution is a part of SolarEdge grid services solution,
that enables cloud-based, real-time aggregative control, management, and reporting of
distributed energy resources, for the creation of solar power plants.
Virtual power plants are interconnected and decentralized energy networks that offer
improved grid reliability, services, stability, and costs. They can help utilities, energy
retailers, and large fleet solar owners to meet energy supply shortages and maintain
grid stability.
This SolarEdge power harvesting solution is designed to maximize the power output
from any type of solar Photovoltaic (PV) installation while reducing the average cost per
Watt. Figure 1 shows and the following sections describe the components of the
SolarEdge power harvesting system. Figure 1 shows SolarEdge Large Scale PV Plants
Solution.

The SE330K Inverter

The SE330K Inverter (referred to as 'inverter' in this manual) efficiently converts DC
power from the PV modules into AC power that can be fed into the main AC service of
the site and from there to the grid. The inverter also receives the monitoring data from
each Power Optimizer and transmits it to the SolarEdge Monitoring platform (requires a
landline connection to the Internet).
