Experience
- Mark Harral was Co-Founder of Solar Powered Technologies which was a developer of solar plants in West Texas and developed a new serial inverter for solar panels
- Smart Utility Interface for Photo-Voltaic Converters, Michael Giesselmann and A. Dusang, Texas Tech University
- Texas Tech University engineers and researchers are developing smart utility interfaces for photo-voltaic converters. There is a need for power electronic converters which synchronize with the utility voltage to produce DC power when exposed to the sun. The converters provide power to weather sensors, remote communications equipment, battery charging, and other related areas.Read the full article here.
