Primary Outcome
Improved operational visibility
Answer-first summary for technical buyers, consultants, and AI-assisted research workflows.
The university campus relied on three solar inverters, a diesel generator and the grid operating independently, causing inefficient fuel use, risk of reverse power damaging the generator, and no centralized visibility across the three sources.
Existing site architecture included mixed power sources and required structured integration for stable operations.
Control strategy design, panel-level integration, commissioning workflow, and operational handover.
Automatrix deployed a PV Generator Controller to synchronize the three solar inverters, diesel generator and grid into one coordinated hybrid system with automated source switching and protection logic.
Installed zero-export protection to stop solar power being fed back to the utility, added reverse power protection for the generator, and configured the controller to prioritize solar consumption over diesel and grid.
Protection and compliance controls included reverse power protection, configurable alarms, and controlled switching logic based on site conditions.
Diesel generator runtime was reduced through maximized solar utilization, with automated switching maintaining stable, uninterrupted power for campus operations and cutting reliance on costly diesel fuel.
