Color Control GX v1.60
Version v1.60 is now available. Containing one fix:
When using Hub-1 Assistant, policy 4 “Prevent feeding back energy to grid”, in combination with VE.Direct MPPT firmware version v1.17 or later, the MPPTs stopped charging. The problem was introduced in the previous firmware version (v1.51) and is now fixed.
Note that we have also changed our internal procedures to prevent issues like this from happening again.
Intersolar Europe 2016: Smart solutions from Victron Energy
Intersolar Europe is billed as the world’s leading exhibition for the solar industry and its partners. With over a 1,000 exhibitors this year, that does seem to be the case – and Victron Energy is naturally a part of it, having a large stand of its own with many of Victron’s partners featuring Victron Energy products on their stands too.
One of this year’s themes for Intersolar is ‘smart renewable energy’, an area which Victron has focussed on in recent years and is well placed to advise on and supply products for.
