XsunX bundles commercial power management package with its CIGS solar systems

XsunX Inc of Aliso Viejo, CA, USA, which is developing hybrid copper indium gallium (di)selenide thin-film (CIGS) photovoltaic (TFPV) cell technologies and ‘CIGSolar’ manufacturing processes, has begun to bundle a commercial power management ‘CPM’ technology with its solar power systems. The firm says that the new offering provides clients with access to increased energy savings and faster payback times for solar energy investments while only adding pennies to the per/watt costs of its systems.

“There are potential savings left hidden in the way businesses use electricity,” says CEO Tom Djokovich. “The first step in finding these hidden savings is to reduce energy costs by adding one of our commercial solar power systems. Then, our new CPM bundle provides clients with a total energy-efficiency management package which includes the tools to monitor, analyze, and control energy usage to further reduce operating costs.”

With the addition of CPM technology, the firm’s goal is to offer a more comprehensive energy-saving package to increase the cost savings and value that potential clients consider when deciding to purchase a commercial power system. XsunX also aims to create a distinct advantage over other solar companies in the market.

The firm’s decision to bundle CPM technology was also driven by the multiple ways that businesses are charged by utilities for their electricity usage, and the average client’s inability to realize maximum savings from just the installation of solar by itself.

Typically, businesses pay for electricity in two ways - the total kilowatt hours used and the peak energy intensity of what they use. This peak intensity can account for as much as 10-50% of a business’ utility bill, and can occur any time of day or night. By bundling real-time electrical energy use analysis technology with its solar systems, XsunX provides tools to increase energy efficiencies throughout business operations 24 hours a day.

“After working with client after client to analyze utility bills and usage profiles, it became evident that we had to expand the scope and impact of how our solar systems delivered savings,” says Djokovich. “Now, with an XsunX integrated solar and CPM technology bundle, our clients can squeeze efficiencies from their operations, further reduce utility bills, and realize more value by investing in an XsunX commercial solar power system,” he adds.
