This pioneering project used parabolic dish concentrators
to focus sunlight on high efficiency photovoltaic solar
cells to produce electrical energy that supplemented
remote diesel grids. Selectronic Australia developed a
custom designed 70kW interactive inverter to feed the
power generated by the dish concentrators into the local
power grid. “Cloud smoothing” and backup functions
were included to allow the power system to maintain
compatibility with the local power supply.
