Located at approximately 17,000 feet above sea level, the project site faces extreme conditions, including intense solar radiation, high UV exposure, harsh weather, and remote accessibility. These demanding conditions require energy infrastructure designed for reliability, durability, and efficient deployment.
Voltage Energy’s LYNX PLUS solution was deployed to support solar infrastructure for the Simons Observatory, providing a reliable DC power collection solution for critical facilities that enable advanced astronomical research and large-scale telescope operations.
In remote and extreme environments, reliable power infrastructure plays a critical role in enabling long-term operations. With its modular architecture, pre-engineered connections, and streamlined installation design, LYNX PLUS helps simplify deployment while delivering dependable performance for demanding solar applications.
“Supporting a project that contributes to scientific discovery represents the type of mission-critical application where reliable power infrastructure matters most,” said Bob Slack, CTO of Voltage Energy. “This project highlights the importance of flexible, high-performance energy solutions in challenging environments.”
From utility-scale solar projects to remote and specialized applications, Voltage Energy continues to advance innovative power architecture solutions that help customers meet evolving energy needs and enable reliable performance wherever power matters most.
