High Frequency Analysis
Our new high-frequency power quality analysis method provides transparency in terms of network-related fall-outs and wear and tear of components in your plant.
A high frequency analysis allows you to go into great detail in order to get to the bottom of the causes of wear and failure with your photovoltaic system.
High-frequency analysis reveals hidden and
avoidable stresses on plant components
When components of a PV system fail, it could be due to harmonic distortions in the electrical network. These can have a major impact on the connected equipment by restricting functions, which greatly accelerates the wearing and aging processes of the components. This results in recurring repair costs due to failures and defects, although the exact causes often remain unclear.
High transparency of network topography
Thanks to a high sampling rate, our analysis determines impedances, even in the high-frequency range up to 150 kHz. In contrast to common standard measurements, this opens up completely new and much more detailed insights into the nature and quality of the network and the resulting challenges for the plant.
Derive and implement measures for trouble-free, long-term plant operation
The knowledge gained from the measurements we take can be used to derive indications of defective components, which can then be replaced in the next step and designed according to the existing grid conditions. In the case of new plants, for example, recommendations for action can be derived and implemented for the filter design of inverters before major damage occurs. Furthermore, it is possible to find out whether sources of interference outside the PV system have a negative influence on the operation of the system.
The advantages of our power quality, high-frequency analysis

Power Quality Check: Checking the network quality
Get to the bottom of frequent failures or recurring defects in your plant:
- Uncover causes of frequent, recurring failures in specific plant components
- Obtain transparency in terms of overloading of certain components
- Enable effective protective and preventative measures
- Reduce repair costs and yield losses

Electrical Fingerprint
Focus on plant health right from the start, to ensure the basis for a long and efficient service life:
- Reduces wear and overloading of new equipment from the offset of your PV project
- Ensures longer intervals between maintenance, thereby reducing costs
- Provides transparency regarding the condition of your plant post-construction
- Enables objective plant evaluation, ideal in case of the potential sale of the plant


Example: Measurements with recognizable target/actual deviations

When does a high frequency analysis make sense?
A high frequency analysis provides insight into power quality in unprecedented detail, enabling you to locate the network-related source of downtimes that have not been found thus far.
We can help you uncover the causes of recurring failures and overloading of specific plant components, so you can take effective protective and preventative measures, which will reduce both repair costs and yield losses.
We take measurements to determine indications of defective components, which can be replaced or designed according to existing grid conditions. In the case of new plants, recommendations can be made and implemented for the filter design of inverters before major damage occurs. It is also possible to find out whether sources of interference outside the PV system have a negative influence on the operation of the system.
A high frequency analysis will enable you to offer an objective plant evaluation to any prospective buyers of your solar power plant. Transparency on the condition of your plant will allow you to build trust and ensure both parties are satisfied with the outcome of a potential sale.
We take detailed measurements of currents, voltages and impedances in the high-frequency range, and prepare a comprehensive report of the results, including an evaluation of normative specifications for the low frequency range.
Thanks to an extremely high sampling rate, our analysis determines electrical impedances, even in the high-frequency range up to 150 kHz. This opens up new and much more detailed insights into the nature and quality of the network, and the resulting challenges faced by the plant.
Why is our high frequency analysis so unique?

An industry first, exclusive to greentech
Our high frequency analysis methods are the first of their kind, and they provide you with a level of detail impossible to find anywhere else in the PV industry. This ensures the performance and success of your plant in the long term.
Developed for you by a strong and
experienced team
Together with the engineers and grid specialists from morEnergy , we want to take the issue of power quality for photovoltaic systems to the next level. This is because we believe that a review of the normatively prescribed frequency range of up to 9 kHz will no longer be sufficient to ensure good power quality for the system and the grid in the future. The reasons for this lie in the expansion of the decentralised power supply through renewable energies and the increase in the high frequency levels of pulsing system components.

Detection of problems which would otherwise be impossible with standard analyses
We can detect hidden and avoidable stresses on plant components with innovative, game changing methods, so you can focus on plant health right from the start and ensure that your solar farm has a long and efficient service life.

Our Services: Measurement, analysis and evaluation
Measurement of currents, voltages and impedances in the high-frequency range.
- Measurement points usually on the low-voltage side of the transformer station
- Scope depending on the number of transformer stations and inverter layout
- Scope depending on the respective system type and the installed components
Data acquisition and transmission by the Online Network Impedance Spectrometer “ONIS 690 V
Analysis of the data and evaluation of the results of measurements
Preparation of a report with the following content:
- consideration and evaluation of normative specifications for the low frequency range
- definition and comparison of further limit values in the high-frequency range
- evaluation of anomalies according to relevance, in the form of a traffic light system, with corresponding recommendations for action
Pricing
The price is merely a guideline, which does not include travel expenses. It includes the effort for plants between 1 and 3 MW, with 4 measuring points. We are aware that every plant is different, so we will work out an individual measurement concept specifically for you, taking into account the type of plant you have, as well as the installed components and known problem areas.
