Commercial repowering with KOSTAL

More power for your commercial PV system

Commercial repowering - More efficiency for your commercial PV system

Why commercial repowering is worthwhile now

Your commercial photovoltaic system has been reliably producing electricity for many years - but the technology is getting on in years? With commercial repowering, you can modernise your system, increase yields and reduce operating costs.
The following applies to inverters in particular: After 10 to 15 years, efficiency decreases, spare parts are in short supply and new legal requirements demand technical adjustments.

The solution: Replace with modern KOSTAL commercial inverters such as the PIKO CI 30/50 or PIKO CI 100 to ensure high yields in the long term and make your system fit for the future.

Ready for repowering: KOSTAL PIKO CI inverters

PIKO CI - maximum performance for large commercial systems

With the new PIKO CI 30/50 or the PIKO CI 100, KOSTAL is expanding the successful PIKO CI series with a particularly powerful model for commercial and industrial PV systems. The inverter delivers 30 kW, 50 kW and 100 kW AC power and impresses with maximum efficiency, flexible system architecture and robust design.

Highlights of the PIKO CI series:

3, 4 and up to 8 MPP trackers for optimised design of large module arrays
DC oversizing up to 150 % for maximum energy yield
Wide input voltage range for flexible planning
Integrated KOSTAL Smart AC Switch for cost-efficient grid connection
IP66 protection class - perfect for outdoor use
Prepared for ripple control, §14a EnWG, EEBUS and dynamic power limitation

The PIKO CI is the ideal solution for operators of large PV systems who expect the highest yields and maximum operational reliability.

When is the right time for repowering?

With commercial repowering and modern KOSTAL commercial inverters, you benefit in several ways. Thanks to maximum efficiency and modern power electronics, you can significantly increase your yields. Up to 8 MPP trackers ensure that your PV system is optimally aligned at all times - even with complex module configurations. Large input voltage ranges and DC oversizing of up to 150 % offer you maximum flexibility when planning and utilising your roof or open space. The integrated KOSTAL Smart AC Switch also saves installation costs, while the robust IP66 housing reliably protects your technology from the weather. In addition, the devices are already prepared for current grid requirements such as §14a EnWG and EEBUS - for long-term investment security.

Why repowering? Replacing your existing inverters is particularly worthwhile if they are more than ten years old. Declining yields are also a clear signal that your system is no longer utilising its full potential. In addition, new legal grid requirements or the desire for higher energy yield and smart control make it sensible to switch to modern devices. With targeted repowering, you can secure more output, greater efficiency and future-proof technology for many years to come.

Focus on economic efficiency

With commercial repowering, you can sustainably increase the yield of your PV system and reduce your operating costs at the same time. In many cases, the switch pays for itself after just a few years, especially for systems with an output of 30 kW or more. In addition to the pure increase in efficiency, you benefit from additional advantages such as funding opportunities via KfW or state programmes, attractive tax depreciation options - such as special or investment deductions - as well as minimal downtimes during the conversion.

The path to your modernised PV system: First, an inventory is carried out to determine the current condition and performance of your system. This is followed by a profitability check, which determines the potential and the expected amortisation period. Certified KOSTAL installers then plan the replacement of the components and implement it professionally. Finally, modern monitoring ensures that you can keep an eye on your new system technology at all times and that its performance is continuously optimised.

With KOSTAL, you are choosing a strong partner in the field of commercial repowering. KOSTAL inverters stand for reliability and durability. Decades of experience in the commercial PV sector, a comprehensive service with long-term spare parts supply and a nationwide network of specialised partners ensure that your project is implemented professionally - now and in the future.
