Tigo Energy and Weco Ink Compatibility Deal to Boost Solar Performance and Design Flexibility
Tigo Energy, Inc. (NASDAQ: TYGO), a key player in intelligent solar and energy software solutions, has announced a new certification of compatibility with Weco S.r.l., an Italian manufacturer of hybrid solar inverters. This collaboration validates the seamless integration and enhanced performance of Tigo’s Flex MLPE (Module Level Power Electronics) products with select Weco single-phase and three-phase hybrid inverters. The certification specifically covers Tigo’s TS4-A and TS4-X product families, paving the way for more efficient solar energy generation and management, particularly for residential customers.
Module-level power electronics, or MLPE, are compact devices attached to individual solar panels. They act like miniature smart adapters, optimizing and monitoring each panel’s energy output independently, rather than treating the entire solar array as a single unit. For investors and system designers, MLPE technology can significantly influence a solar project’s financial and operational performance. By boosting energy yield, improving fault detection, and offering greater installation and maintenance flexibility, MLPE contributes to a more competitive and cost-effective solar solution.
The partnership aims to deliver enhanced value through a more integrated and intelligent energy ecosystem. “The compatibility between our inverter solutions and Tigo optimizers represents a significant step forward for the entire industry, and confirms our commitment to simplifying the work of solar professionals,” stated Federico Cusumano, R&D Manager at Weco S.r.l. He added that designers and installers can now leverage greater sizing flexibility to fine-tune system configurations based on the specific needs of each project site, ultimately benefiting the end customer with long-term value.
Utilizing Tigo’s MLPE technology in conjunction with hybrid inverters like those from Weco is particularly beneficial for installations facing challenges such as partial shading, module mismatch, or the inherent spatial constraints of residential rooftop layouts. This optimization ensures that solar systems operate more efficiently and maintain stable energy production even under suboptimal conditions.
Gal Bauer, Senior Director of Validation, Growth, and Product Management at Tigo Energy, emphasized the focus on empowering installers. “For Tigo, this announcement is first and foremost about giving installers greater control at the module level without adding complexity to system design,” Bauer explained. “Certified compatibility with Weco inverters ensures that Tigo Flex MLPE technology can be deployed exactly where it delivers the most value, while maintaining a smooth commissioning process and predictable system behavior.” He further highlighted this as a testament to Tigo’s commitment to building an open ecosystem that prioritizes safety, flexibility, and sustained system performance.
Both Tigo and Weco are planning a joint webinar to provide deeper insights into their product offerings and showcase real-world case studies demonstrating the synergy between their technologies. This initiative is designed to equip installers with the knowledge to best leverage this integrated solution.
