History
SolarBridge was established in 2004 at the University of Illinois to bring power electronics technologies to market. The company is venture capital backed, having raised US $71 million to-date. Investors include Battery Ventures, Rho Ventures, and Osage University Partners.[4]
Products
The SolarBridge Pantheon microinverter, mounted directly on solar panels, converts power at each module instead of using central or string inverters, facilitating a roof-ready AC module. It achieved Underwriters Laboratories 1741 certification by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) in early 2011.[5]
SolarBridge works directly with module manufacturers to develop integrated AC modules for the North American market, which were commercially available in 2011.
