Converter/Inverter System

Emps has taken an entirely new system engineering approach to power electronics for solar photovoltaic (PV) and other renewable energy sources. The US Department of Energy has identified power electronics technology as a critical bottleneck for widespread PV adoption and has assisted in funding the development of Emps' revolutionary technology.

Emps' mission is to develop and deliver inverter and converter products for photovoltaic (PV) and other renewable energy sources providing the highest total energy harvesting, lowest lifetime system cost, and value-added energy management features.

Emps is owned and operated in the United States. It will soon begin manufacturing also in the US with job creation plans.

Emps initial products are

• 5kW DC-DC converter only
• 5kW converter/inverter system for North America (120/240V AC 60Hz).

Grid-Tied, Grid-Independent

Separate grid and local load AC interfaces

Powers local loads when grid is down and without batteries

Provides reactive/surge power to local loads as needed

Low Voltage Parallel PV Array

Standardized, lower cost wiring and installation

Less sensitive to partial shading than string arrays

Universal inverter system for distributed generation

Support batteries, fuel cell, wind, geothermal, tidal sources

Enables energy management system

Supports cost optimization for time-of-day energy pricing

Provides 48V DC for residential DC lighting

Provides 400V DC for high efficiency variable DC motors for space conditioning
