2026 NEC® Changes Affecting PV and Energy Storage System

Join us for a discussion of changes in the 2026 NEC®. Regardless of the version of the National Electrical Code enforced in your jurisdiction, the Code drives industry-wide best practices and product development cycles of manufacturers and is critical for installers, designers, manufacturers, engineers, developers, and building officials to stay current. This presentation will focus on updates and changes that impact PV and storage system design and installation for all types of applications, ranging from off-grid, to interactive PV systems on buildings, up to utility-scale solar farms. There are some great updates that will help reduce system cost while maintaining safety – you need to know what they are to take advantage; there’s also some updates that may end up adding cost – and you need to know the best ways to deal with them. Bring questions if you have them and be ready for a fun time talking Code.

PV Installation Best Practices

The good, the bad, and the ugly: gain insight on how to do it right, save on installation time and labor, and avoid unnecessary call-backs and red-tags from your AHJ or utility. A fun-filled presentation on residential, commercial, and utility-scale PV systems that will make you groan, gasp, and, at the same time, have some “”a-ha”” moments.

Large-scale PV and Storage System Configurations

In this presentation, we will discuss the common configurations for utility-scale PV and PV+ storage system configurations. These include PV systems featuring string inverters, which utilize one of several different DC wiring configurations:  integrated combiner boxes, external combiner boxes, and combiner boxes with wiring harnesses. Next are central inverter configurations, including options with combiner boxes, harnesses, and external or integrated DC disconnects. Finally we’ll cover PV systems coupled with battery energy storage, highlighting both DC-coupled and AC-coupled configurations, including DC-to-DC converters.
