title = "Inverters: A Pivotal Role in PV Generated Electricity",
abstract = "This presentation discusses the pivotal role inverters play in PV generated electricity. Topics include: the inverter as the center of the system--increasingly becoming the brain, with more features and capabilities (hybrid systems, safety, islanding, monitoring, etc.); increasing inverter-based generated electricity associated with many renewable energy sources; increased dependence for grid support and forming capability; communication within the grid and security increasingly required; increasing complexity leads to more chances to fail; as in most PV segments, there is cost reduction pressure, which makes it more challenging to keep the reliability high.",
