Mar 29, 2024 by Gayathri Pariti 0 Comments #Jing Tian, #Long-Time Installer Partner, #Tigo Access Point, #Tigo Energy Headquarters

Friday, March 29, 2024 Campbell, Calif., United States
Tigo Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: TYGO), a leading provider of intelligent solar and energy software solutions, today announced the installation and commissioning of a rooftop solar system at its headquarters in California. The system was designed and deployed by Tigo installer partner, Laibach Solar, and has averaged 5% Reclaimed Energy since it was commissioned. Laibach Solar is an employee-owned solar installer in Northern California dedicated to combining high-quality components with unbeatable pricing. It has been a valued installation partner for Tigo since 2018. The installation now contributes to the growth of U.S. corporate solar adoption, which was 14% of the U.S. Solar Market as of 2022, according to the Solar Energy Industries Association.

The installation is equipped with 180 Tigo TS4-A-O MLPE devices, the Tigo Access Point (TAP), and the Tigo Cloud Connect Advanced (CCA) data logging device. The 90kW system design, which includes 180 500W solar modules and a Solectria inverter, had to overcome significant shading challenges from existing roof features. By deploying its own technology, the performance of the system on the Tigo headquarters will only be minimally impacted by shading throughout the day and be further boosted by Tigo Reclaimed Energy technology. Tigo will also benefit from module-level monitoring and advanced rapid shutdown safety measures to protect solar professionals, building maintenance personnel, and first responders.

“We have used Tigo products on many projects over the years because of the quality and design flexibility they deliver, and it was great to design a system for the Tigo headquarters where we were able to overcome shading constraints from the barrier wall structures with their own technology,” said Dejan Obradovic, owner at Laibach Solar. “While this system is clearly something of a crown jewel for us as a solar installation company, there is no doubt that the pressure is also on, which is why we are using the Energy Intelligence monitoring platform and Tigo EI Professional to keep an eye on things. Tigo is a great partner on our solar mission, and we look forward to many more years of empowering solar with great software and a shared commitment to quality.”

With the Tigo Energy Intelligence monitoring platform, Laibach Solar and Tigo Energy have full control and visibility over the installation. This platform not only allows Tigo to monitor Reclaimed Energy and shading occurrences but also provides optimization insights, ensuring the system operates at its peak efficiency. The Tigo Energy Intelligence Portal gives insight into Reclaimed Energy, or the amount of energy that would have been lost due to shading and any module mismatch. On typical sunny days, the rooftop system at the Tigo headquarters is projected to reclaim an average of approximately 14kWh, daily.

“I want to thank the team at Laibach Solar for the great system design and a very high-quality installation, particularly as it relates to overcoming a tricky combination of shading and permitting constraints,” said Jing Tian, chief growth officer at Tigo Energy. “With the setup we have today, our solar output is being optimized to give us the best possible gain in the form of Reclaimed Energy, which helps us constantly shave off of the power demand we would have for the grid. This system is exactly the kind of result that a commitment to Total Quality Solar can produce.”

In the spirit of the timeless manufacturing principles of Total Quality Management, Total Quality Solar (TQS) is a principle that guides a continual process of detecting and reducing errors in the design, installation, and equipment throughout the solar ecosystem.

The new platform integrates NXP’s broad hardware portfolio with software from the world’s leading automotive experts across a comprehensive ecosystem, including Accenture ESR Labs, ArcherMind, Blackberry QNX, Elektrobit, ETAS, Green Hills Software, Sonatus, Synopsys, TTTech Auto, Vector Informatik GmbH, and Wind River as well as tier-1 suppliers like Valeo.

Leveraging the scalable S32 compute in the S32 CoreRide platform, OEMs can consolidate ECUs and develop flexible architectures, from domain to zonal to centralized, that scale across vehicle classes and generations. The platform provides the ability to isolate vehicle functions, helping to ensure freedom from interference between each application and dynamically re-allocate resources so applications do not degrade in performance as they evolve over time. This level of integration and flexibility advances carmakers and tier-1 suppliers to the next point in their development since they can now utilize the S32 CoreRide platform to put more focus on differentiation and the creation of application software for new business models.

“The automotive industry’s shift to software-defined vehicles presents unprecedented levels of disruption,” said Henri Ardevol, executive vice president and general manager, automotive embedded systems at NXP. “In the last decade, many industries have successfully adopted faster innovation cycles and effectively achieved higher performance at lower cost through tight integration of silicon and software. With NXP’s S32 CoreRide platform, automakers can now radically transform their approach to SDV development by adopting a much faster, open development path.”

First S32 CoreRide solutions for central compute based on new S32N family

NXP also introduces its first solutions in the S32 CoreRide platform: the central compute solution based on the new S32N family of vehicle super-integration processors, advanced vehicle networking, system power management, and pre-integrated software from the S32 CoreRide open partner ecosystem. The central compute solution allows automakers to safely and easily integrate many cross-vehicle functions running in isolation-ready execution environments enabled by the S32N family’s automotive-grade hardware isolation capabilities.

The scalable S32N family, purpose-built for the highest level of automotive functional safety, offers multiple combinations of real-time and applications processing cores to meet a wide range of automakers’ central compute needs. All S32N devices integrate an advanced hardware security engine and multi-port TSN Ethernet switch and CAN hub, with some also supporting Ethernet packet acceleration, AI/ML acceleration, and cost-effective, inter-compute PCI Express services.

The S32 CoreRide central compute solution is optimized to meet the network bandwidth, power delivery requirements and targets ISO 26262 ASIL D functional safety requirements. It can unlock the benefits of SDVs by providing vehicle data intelligence for streamlining deployment and monetization of enhanced capabilities and new services over a vehicle’s lifetime.
