Amonix 7700

Amonix 7700 Solar Power Generator

Experienced Utility Scale Solar Power

The Amonix 7700 High Concentration Photovoltaic (HCPV) solar power generator is powered by the world’s most efficient multijunction solar cells, and delivers system efficiencies in excess of 25% (AC, post-inverter). Comprised of seven proprietary MegaModules® and utilizing dual-axis tracking, the Amonix 7700 generates over 40% more energy than conventional fixed-tilt solar panels.


Amonix multijunction system performance under field operating conditions.


APS Installation - Prescott AZ
Low Cost
The Amonix 7700 uses lenses to focus sunlight onto very small solar cells, substantially reducing the amount of expensive solar cell material required.
Generates More Energy
The Amonix 7700 delivers the highest energy production per acre, two to three times greater than competing solar technologies.
Reliable and Field Proven
With nearly 13 MW of Amonix technology installed worldwide, the Amonix 7700 leverages over 15 years
of field operation experience.
Scalable Deployment
The Amonix 7700 is deployable in increments of 53kW (AC) and applicable to both distributed generation and centralized solar farms.
Rapid Installation
The Amonix 7700 is modular and factory assembled in MegaModule® units which are shipped to the field for installation, reducing construction time.
Uses Less Land
Just five acres per MW of rated capacity.
Better Maintains Performance in Hot Climates
Significantly lower temperature coefficient than conventional silicon PV and thin film PV.
Field Upgradable Solar Cells
Individual solar cells are field replaceable and easily upgradable.
