In a PBI World • Successful PBI -PV-Systems are: • High Yield • Robust and Reliable KACO Solar, Inc. 1002 B O‘Reilly Ave, San Francisco, CA 94129
How we achieve improved Inverter yields? • MPP tracking • Some Systems “chase” the MPP • In essence these Inverters are always “next” to the MPP • Some Inverters calculate the MPP • Higher yields can be achieved by constantly be in “on” the MPP • Tracking Sequence Speed KACO Solar, Inc. 1002 B O‘Reilly Ave, San Francisco, CA 94129
How we achieve improved Inverter yields? • BiSi – Anti Islanding • Bidirectional Safety interface • Grid Monitoring process with minimal Grid Impact • Multiple inverters in one system no longer interfere with each other KACO Solar, Inc. 1002 B O‘Reilly Ave, San Francisco, CA 94129
How we achieve improved Inverter yields? • Low start up voltage • High Efficiencies at low power KACO Solar, Inc. 1002 B O‘Reilly Ave, San Francisco, CA 94129

Higher System Yields • What are further contributing factors? Less System Downtime • Less inverter failures KACO Solar, Inc. 1002 B O‘Reilly Ave, San Francisco, CA 94129
Over 60 Years of Experience and History Standard 10 years warranty KACO Solar, Inc. 1002 B O‘Reilly Ave, San Francisco, CA 94129
Reliable Inverters • Over-dimensioning of components • Components can loose their electric qualities over time • Capacitors • Switches • To ensure 15 year+ lifetimes use more or larger components than necessary KACO Solar, Inc. 1002 B O‘Reilly Ave, San Francisco, CA 94129
