Innova is an Italian Company

Range of products

Since 2005 Innova is active in the development of advanced CSP generators for application in distributed power generation.

It focuses on the most promising segments of emerging solar systems technologies based on Solar Concentration: Dish/Stirling and, later, High Concentration Photovoltaic (HCPV).

Innova has already launched its unique Dish/Stirling based electrical/thermal co-generators with peak power of 1Kwe and 3 Kwt, with substantial advantage over competing solutions.

Unlike a conventional solar panel, a thermodynamic system uses the thermic element within the solar energy in order to generate electricity.

Dish Stirling cogeneration plant

Trinum is a cogenerating system able to produce on the same time 1 KW of electric energy 230 V AC 50 Hz and 3 KW of thermal energy (warm water for heating and sanitary use). Trinum is in compliance with the EU directive 2009/28CE and with machine directive.

Efficiency

The overall conversion efficiency of the solar energy (DNI 725 W/m²) in thermal and electric energy is 55,2%, with 13,8% of electrical efficiency and 41,4% of thermal efficiency.

Electric Energy

Trinum is able to generate 1 KW of electric power. In one year Trinum produces 2100* kWh of electric energy.

Thermal energy

Trinum is able to generate 3 KW of thermal power. In one year Trinum produces 6400* kWh of thermal energy.

Recyclable

Trinum is 100% recyclable.

Stirling Engine

Trinum is the only system in the world equipped with a free piston Stirling engine with an electrical power of 1 KW named LFPEG (Linear Free Piston Engine Generator) class EM1 produced by MEC, Microgen Engine Corporation.

Self Protection

Trinum can close on itself protecting the whole system from bad weather conditions. Trinum is equipped with an automatic solar tracking system and with digital data transmission devices for remote control.

Operating Space

With the same production of electric and thermal energy, Trinum makes use of an area that is about the half of the one used by traditional protovoltaic and thermal panels (the occupied area is about 20 m², equivalent to a circumference with a diameter of about 5,00 m).

Economics

With the same installed power rating, Trinum generates up to 40% more of electric energy than a normal photovoltaic panel.

Plug & Play

Trinum generates alternate electric energy that can be input directly into the electric grid. Trinum needs no INVERTER.
