Northern Electric & Power Inc. (NEP) was founded in the United States and has manufacturing and R&D facilities in China. The mission of the company is to develop cutting-edge clean energy technologies and provide state-of-the-art solar inverter products to its customers. The first round of investment to the company was US$20 Million, with a planned total investment of US$50 Million. The company is headquartered in the city of Tsingtao, a major industrial center and trading port in the northeastern China. The company campus occupies more than 18 acres in the Tsingtao Export Processing Zone, and has more than 650,000 square feet building space. The campus is planned to be connected through a micro smart grid demo community and powered by electricity from solar, wind and micro turbines. Outside China, the company has operation offices in Chicago, U.S. and Vancouver, Canada.
The technology founders of the company are well-known experts in the fields of power electronics, automatic control, signal processing, and communications. Each of the founders has multiple U.S. and world patents in their specialty areas. They received Ph.D. degrees from top universities in North America, and each has more than 10 years engineering and management experiences in leading U.S. companies.
NEP has a complete product line of grid-tied solar inverters, including 250W~500W micro inverters, 1.5kW~5kW single phase solar inverters, and 10kW~500kW three-phase solar inverters. Field deployment results demonstrated high system efficiency and reliability of NEP solar inverters.
NEP is committed to develop Clean, Reliable, Affordable and Efficient (CARE) products for worldwide customers.

Monitoring Gateway communication monitoring gateway
The NEP geteway is a Web-based management system that enables system owners, installers and module manufacturers to monitor system performance. The geteway’s rich graphical interface is available through internet-connected computers and mobile devices. The open architecture of the geteway also permits rapid integration with additional devices and systems using industry-standard web services and methods.
Unlike other PV systems, which capture only aggregate, system-level data at best, the NEP geteway monitors and manages the real-time operating performance of every AC module. System owners and operators are instantly alerted to potential problems, preventing costly downtime and reducing troubleshooting time and maintenance costs.
