Solar development company Apollo Flutuantes has chosen to deploy 97,200 Tigo Energy optimizers, including the Tigo TS4-X-O MLPE line, in what the company calls Brazil’s largest floating solar plant. 

The project, scheduled for completion next December, will be located on the Lajeado Hydroelectric Power Plant reservoir in Tocantins.

The project, designed and installed by Apollo Flutuantes, includes high-albedo platforms that optimize light reflection to maximize backside energy output of the system’s bifacial modules. The Tigo TS4-X-O MLPE device that is set to be used on the project has plug-and-play support for solar modules up to 800W at 25A.

“This project brings yet another large-scale Tigo system into our portfolio, joining hundreds of monitored systems between 500 kW and 5 MW for which customers get the highest resolution insights,” says Jing Tian, chief growth officer at Tigo Energy.

“As both the size and number of solar systems increase, the amount of data they produce requires advanced monitoring and analysis software from Tigo. We are honored to serve AE Power, Apollo Flutuantes and the entire Brazilian market in this capacity.”

Philosophy on the Decline

At left is a good example of what I mean by: “The last 150 years hasn’t been good for philosophers.”

In the late 19th Century, a question like this was the purview of philosophy.  Now it’s the domain for neuroscientists.

Similarly, the question: “what are the ultimate building blocks of the universe” was fodder for everyone from the ancient Greek philosophers up to the far more recent metaphysicians. Now we ask particle physicists.

Joke on MAGA Attire

Published

This is funny, but in actuality, sane people don’t physically attack the MAGA crowd; in fact, we don’t even make snide comments.

We keep our thoughts to ourselves.  We may feel sorry for these people’s moral depravity and/or stupidity.  We may be angry that the country that was once the envy of the world is now viewed with ridicule and disdain in its path to become irrelevant in global affairs.

But messing with hateful morons in red hats isn’t helping anyone.
