Please see below for the recent press release from Fronius:
Fronius USA is pleased to announce the release of the Remote Configuration and Configuration Report Features, using EPRI's Common File Format (CFF), which can now be completed remotely via Fronius Solar.web. This new feature simplifies the DER interconnection approval process for solar installers by generating a professional, utility-ready document that includes all DER settings according to EPRI's common file format.
Designed to reduce time on site, administrative headaches, and truck-rolls, this feature demonstrates Fronius' commitment to providing solar professionals with innovative support for the setup and operation of the Fronius GEN24 and GEN24 Plus inverters.
Key Benefits of the Fronius Report Feature:
• Utility-Ready Documentation: Automatically compiles proof of DER settings
typically requested by utilities for approval.
• Remote Configuration: Using Fronius Solar.web, you can now enter the user
interface of the inverter from virtually anywhere to change the DER settings and
download the Configuration Report.
• Time-Saving for Installers: Reduces the complexity of proving DER settings via
screenshots and spreadsheets.
• First in the Industry: Fronius is the first inverter manufacturer to offer such a
feature built directly into its platform. Plus, there's no cost to utilize this report.
• Instant Seamless Integration: The Configuration Report is available for instant
download within the user interface of the Fronius GEN24 and GEN24 Plus
inverters.
Industry Recognition
"We appreciate the direction Fronius is taking with this new reporting feature. Enabling
installers to generate a comprehensive document that includes all key information
typically required by utilities for permission to operate is helping address a real need in
the field."
-EPRI
Leadership Perspective
"Our goal is to empower installers with tools that make their jobs easier and more
efficient. With the Fronius configuration report and remote configuration, we're
addressing common bottlenecks in the interconnection approval process by providing
the proper documentation for proving DER settings directly from the inverter. This is
more than just a feature; it's about removing friction to help clean energy get installed
faster."
