Swiss electrification company ABB has introduced a new power conversion portfolio for the solar photovoltaic and battery energy storage system industries. The portfolio, named Proteus, shares its name with a line of PV and battery inverters previously owned by Gamesa Electric, which ABB acquired last year. According to ABB, the Proteus portfolio will include products for both the solar PV and BESS sectors.
For the solar PV industry, the portfolio includes 4.7MVA central inverters that ABB claims can achieve a conversion efficiency of 99.45%, matching the benchmarks set by the Gamesa Electric line of PV inverters. For the BESS sector, the portfolio includes bi-directional converter stations and advanced control systems that can support services such as grid-forming and black-start operation.
Daniel Gerber, business line manager of renewable power at ABB, stated that the global energy transition requires proven, scalable, and reliable power conversion solutions. He noted that the company has installed more than 120GW of power conversion capacity to date. ABB has not provided further technical details on its new products but said it would present its new Proteus solar inverter at next week’s Intersolar Europe event, scheduled from 23-25 June in Munich, Germany.
The acquisition of Gamesa Electric and the launch of the Proteus portfolio are significant because they mark ABB’s re-entry into the power electronics sector. ABB had divested its remaining assets in that sector in March 2020. Following the Gamesa Electric acquisition, Gerber indicated that ABB would seek to capture growing demand for products like inverters, which are necessary to deploy solar PV at the scale required for the energy transition. This week, ABB described solar PV as the most scalable and cost-competitive clean energy source.
The news follows a milestone for the European renewable energy sector: according to PV Tech Market Research, Europe now has more than 100GW of operational inverter manufacturing capacity. Earlier this week, PV Tech Market Research’s Mollie McCorkindale commented that Europe is a world leader in the technology, at a time when ABB is looking to re-enter the sector.
