Solve the shadow problem of distributed photovoltaics and increase generation

Fonrich Smart PV Optimizer is specifically designed to cure this "short-stave problem" — it enables module-level optimization, allowing the current and voltage of each solar panel to be adjusted independently. This way, every panel can generate power at its own optimal operating point.

To put it simply: In the past, if one panel was shaded, the entire string was dragged down; now, with the optimizer, even if that panel has low output, the device can accurately track the Maximum Power Point (MPP) of each individual panel, compensating for all power losses caused by module "mismatch."

Depending on the on-site shading conditions, installing Fonrich’s optimizer can increase power generation capacity by 10% to 25%. For example, consider a rooftop with multiple air vents causing overall shading. In the past, many empty areas on such rooftops could not be used for installing panels; now, with the optimizer, panels in these shaded areas can still generate power efficiently, resulting in no waste at all.

Second-Level Shutdown! High-Voltage Risks? A Thing of the Past

Currently, many countries around the world mandate that rooftop PV systems be equipped with a "rapid shutdown" function, and China has also recently begun to put forward this requirement. After all, PV systems have a major hidden risk: in the event of a fire, even if the inverter is turned off, the module side still carries a high voltage ranging from 500V to 1500V. This prevents firefighters from approaching for rescue, endangering both lives and property.

Fonrich’s Smart PV Optimizer solves this problem: When an emergency occurs, as long as the inverter is turned off, the optimizer can reduce the voltage of the rooftop modules to a safe level within seconds. Whether it is for fire rescue or the daily maintenance work of O&M technicians, there is no need to worry about electric shock — safety is fully guaranteed.

O&M No Longer Requires "Blind Troubleshooting" — Fine-Grained Management Saves Worry

One or two years after many power stations are installed, new trees may grow nearby or new buildings may be constructed in the vicinity. Such new obstructions will reduce the efficiency of the module strings. In the past, dealing with this situation meant either cutting down trees or adjusting the modules, which was both time-consuming and costly.

However, with the installation of Fonrich’s optimizer, things are different: it can greatly reduce the impact of environmental shading. Even if new obstructions appear, it can maximize the recovery of power generation losses, eliminating the hassle caused by unforeseen environmental changes that were not accounted for in the original design.

What’s more convenient is that it is an intelligent device with module-level management — via Fonrich’s SafeSolar Intelligent Control Cloud Platform, the real-time operating status of each module can be monitored: whether the voltage, power, and temperature are normal is clear at a glance. The platform can also automatically detect faults; if a problem occurs with any panel, it immediately notifies O&M technicians to carry out repairs, eliminating the need to inspect panels one by one and significantly improving efficiency.

Rooftops Filled to Capacity! Making the Most of Limited Resources

Nowadays, the development of distributed PV is becoming increasingly intensive. High-quality rooftops that are easy to install and unobstructed have long been snapped up for development. The remaining rooftops are either east-facing, south-facing (suboptimal orientations), or dotted with obstructions everywhere. With traditional solutions, it is simply impossible to install enough modules on such rooftops, resulting in a huge waste of space.

The optimizer solves this problem perfectly: Since each module can operate independently at its MPP without being affected by other panels in the same string — even modules with different orientations can be connected to the same string without power loss. In this way, no matter how complex the rooftop is, modules can be installed as fully as possible, making the most of limited rooftop resources. Additionally, the design difficulty is significantly reduced.

Furthermore, this solution is equipped with Fonrich’s self-developed monitoring system, which is compatible with nearly all inverter brands on the market. The construction cost of the power station can also be controlled, allowing more budget to be allocated to high-quality equipment models.

In the final analysis, engaging in distributed solar power generation requires not only generating more electricity but also ensuring safety and peace of mind, rather than wasting rooftop space. Fonrich’s Smart PV Optimizer integrates all these needs into one. Whether it is for the renovation of old power stations or the construction of new ones, it is a reliable choice.
