AUSTIN, TX--(Marketwired - Jan 20, 2016) - Ideal Power Inc., (
"The products that Ideal Power has launched this year have significantly expanded the flexibility of our power conversion systems," said Dan Brdar, CEO of Ideal Power. "In 2015, we saw an increase in interest from our customers in using our systems for peak demand management, the integration of renewables and microgrid applications. We're honored to receive this recognition, and feel that this and other developments throughout 2015 validate our approach to product development and technological innovation."
Since it began commercializing its technology, Ideal Power has received a number of highly-coveted industry awards; this further recognition reflects the impact that its innovative technology is having on the market for solar+storage. The company has seen widespread success in the energy storage market for demand management due to the increased efficiency and flexibility of their power conversion systems which are dramatically smaller, lighter and easier to deploy compared to conventional systems.
"Solar Power World is proud to recognize the brightest products to come out of the solar industry this year. Ideal Power's Grid Resilient 30kW Power Conversion System is an example of the innovation driving the industry," said Solar Power World Editor Kathie Zipp.
In 2015, Ideal Power introduced its grid resilient family of power conversion systems, available in 30kW and 125kW power ratings. Its 30kW system is available in dual or multi-port configurations. Ideal Power's products are based on the company's patented Power Packet Switching Architecture™ (PPSA) and support new features including 50Hz compatibility and microgrid functionality. Both the 30kW and 125kW systems received certification for UL 1741 conformance in 2015.
Ideal Power is collaborating with a wide range of energy storage developers and integrators for behind-the-meter energy storage systems, many of which have been deployed for peak demand management applications.
