-- The high voltage solar array is an assembly of medium voltage arrays.
|
|
-- The assembly can deliver high voltage levels and is a 20% less efficient
|
|
-- compared to 5 individual medium voltage arrays due to losses in the transformer.
|
|
-- However high voltage is supplied.
|
|
-- Solar arrays are not able to store large amounts of energy.
