Low Cost Priorities (Average Normalized) Components & Materials Phase III will: • Be conducted with at least two contractors. • Refine prototypes into commercial products, maintaining conformity to pertinent standards, performance, cost, and manufacturing objectives. • Conduct testing of final products through laboratory evaluations, UL listing, HALT, Semiconductors Magnetics Control Algorithms Physical Packaging- Thermal Management Capacitors (Energy Storage) environmental evaluations. testing, and long-term 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4 4.5 5 Average Score (Maximum = 5.0) Contract results are: • Phase II contract with General Electric Global Research resulted in a 3500-W utility- interactive, multiple-input inverter, which has a minimum MTBF of 12 years, addresses many lifetime-related issues, and may be vertically integrated in GE’s new PV ventures. Delivery of the prototype to SNL is scheduled for early December 2004. • Phase II contract with Xantrex resulted in a 5000-W utility-interactive or stand-alone inverter with optional inputs that include a matching maximum-power-point tracker. The inverter has a minimum MTBF of 10 years, addresses many lifetime-related issues, and may be integrated into a system assembly. Delivery of the prototype to SNL is scheduled for early November 2004. • Phase II contract with SatCon resulted in a 2500-W utility-interactive inverter with flexibility for input. It has a minimum MTBF of 12 years, addresses many lifetime-related issues, and may be integrated into a system assembly. Delivery of the prototype to SNL is scheduled for early December 2004. • All manufacturers are working to assure UL listing, quality control programs, and highly accelerated lifetime testing. 3.2 High-Tech Inverter and BOS Research and Development—A 5-Year Strategy This high-tech strategy for inverter and BOS R&D is currently in the planning stages, with a first draft of the strategy document nearly complete. The full description appears in the Planned FY 2005 Activities section of this report. Fig. 2. Components and materials prioritization for low-cost inverter development. Phase I activities were to: 1. Solicit inverter industry proposals requiring high-reliability goals and mass-production plans for 10,000 units/year. (Three proposals were selected from 12 submissions.) 2. Provide product configurations and architectures that maximize reliability while minimizing costs and manufacturing difficulty. 3. Provide a technical and market plan indicating how the new inverter will be developed. 4. Demonstrate adherence to UL, IEEE, and performance and safety requirements. 5. Report on the Phase 1 results (where the results were used to determine further development with original contractors). Phase II is in progress. The activities are to: 1. Conduct Phase II with at least two contractors. It was determined that results of the Phase I work warranted Phase II prototype development with all three contractors (General Electric, SatCon, and Xantrex). 2. Finalize development of new inverter designs, with emphasis on efficient switching, manufacturing processes, packaging, thermal management, surge suppression, and overall enhanced performance. 3. Assess, test, and validate new designs, including full characterization, component- level tests, system performance analysis, packaging validation technology, and cooling effectiveness. 4. Validate compliance to utility-interconnection standards such as IEEE 1547 and UL 1741.PDF Image | FY 2004 ANNUAL REPORT DOE Solar
