MM7 - based on proven and mature MV7 technology

Around the world, industrial customers, renewable/utility and rail grid operators are facing growing challenges of increasing grid availability, improving power quality, to meet growing energy demand, improved reliability and scalable solution to address the complex market needs.

The MM7 provides a modular approach to achieve a customized solution across different applications. It is a multifaceted premium converter (transformer-less, N+1 or 2 redundancy, lower losses, remote support capabilities and grid monitoring) that improves power quality to meet grid requirements, increases operational efficiency for industrial application and provides higher availability.

How do we meet today's customer requirements?

General Electric

Customers aim for highest operational efficiency and the highest possible availability.

In need to improve power quality and reduce flicker? 

In order to maintain the reliability and quality of the energy supply under any circumstances, dynamic voltage support and reactive power compensation are required.

General Electric

Looking for efficient and flexible solutions for fully-fed PSPP?

Due to the intermittency of renewable energy sources, larger energy storage solutions like pumped storage power plants (PSPP) are necessary. For these, flexible, compact and efficient converters are required.
