Solar DC
Inverter-less UPS

Cygni Solar-DC solution

CYGNI, an Incubatee of IIT-Madras Incubation Cell and Rural Technology

Business Incubator of IIT-Madras.

CYGNI in collaboration with IIT Madras has developed the high efficiency Solar-

DC solution.
The Solar-DC Inverter-less UPS is a power back-up solution. This replaces the

existing Inverter used in homes.

This innovative technology results in significant reduction the power back-up cost,

almost 30-40% lower cost than the exiting Inverters used in the market.
The DC solution seamlessly integrates Solar, so that additional solar power can be

added incrementally based on the customer need.

Due to Energy Efficient DC equipments, the customer monthly power bill also gets

reduced by 50%, which unlike in inverters, increases the cost of power bill.
Owning and managing the solar supply chain, places CYGNI in a niche position to

pass significant savings to our customers.

CYGNI has an experience of system integration projects include rooftop systems

and decentralized applications.

Why Inverterless?
Solar PV gives DC Power

Solar

But

load is AC
Needs a DC-AC convertor

Now if we add a battery

stores only DC
Require a AC-DC convertor for
charging
Require a DC-AC convertor
during discharging

For low power, each convertor* can

have 10 to 15% loss

battery

Solar

with battery may have 25 to

45% loss
