The new PIKO CI 100 commercial inverter

The PIKO CI 100 is the logical response to the growing demand for increasingly powerful commercial inverters. Introduced in 2020, the PIKO CI series established itself within a few months as a new and successful series in the KOSTAL range.

The successful market launch and the continuing strong demand for high power classes were reasons enough for KOSTAL to add a 100 kW device to the series.

The PIKO CI 100 can be ordered now and will be delivered at the beginning of next year.

The PIKO CI 100 comes as standard with numerous functions and features that make it the optimum component of an efficient PV system.

In addition to a high 100 kW of power, the PIKO CI 100 also focuses on safety. For example, it has arc detection with automatic event messages for the greatest possible safety.

It also offers type 2 overvoltage protection on the AC and DC sides. And the AC Smart Switch enables independent decoupling from the grid, if necessary.

Like the smaller devices in the series, the CI 100 is easy to start up with the PIKO CI App. And thanks to multiple-inverter connection, it offers maximum flexibility when expanding larger PV systems.

The PIKO CI is a real powerhouse and extremely versatile. With its scalable power of 100 kW, it is ideally equipped to meet the requirements of an EPC supplier or project planner.

It is also the ideal inverter for commercial users aiming for self-sufficiency or as a source of profit through feed-in compensation.

The PIKO CI is even an established partner in agriculture, reliably ensuring self-sufficient farming.

Thanks to the robust IP66-certified housing, the PIKO CI 100 can be used indoors, on outdoor façades and in open spaces without any problems.

To derive maximum benefit from the PIKO CI, it can be combined with compatible storage. This means that solar power generated can be used at a later date.
