Market research company EUPD Research has conferred six ‘Top Brand PV Storage’ seals to Growatt in multiple key solar storage markets, including Italy, Australia, the UK, Scandinavia, Czech Republic and Brazil.
More and more homeowners are planning a larger solar installation. This is because they want to charge the solar power into the batteries of their electric vehicles.
Electromobility is directly linked to the operation of private charging stations, as a recent study by EuPD Research shows. With solar power from the roof of one's own house, the additional demand is covered cost-effectively.
The prices of residential storage systems have been decreasing for several years. Nevertheless, a share of the German photovoltaic (PV) installation companies state that high prices are the reason for not offering storage solutions.
Nearly two thirds of the PV installers in France have now included energy storage solutions in their portfolios according to a recent survey.
The year 2020 showed an uptrend for photovoltaics in Austria and Switzerland. In addition to PV systems, a majority of PV installers also now offers storage- and electric mobility solutions.
By the end of 2020, around 1.3 million photovoltaic systems were installed on one- and two-family houses in Germany. An analysis by EUPD Research confirms an overall saturation of eleven percent.
EUPD Research recently published the results of the 13th edition of the Global PV InstallerMonitor 2020/2021 for the Australian market, and the demand-side is very healthy.
EUPD Research will publish the results of the 13th edition of the Global PV Installer Monitor 2020/2021 for the Polish market. In 2020 more than half of the Polish installers procured their PV modules through specialized wholesalers.
Despite an increased number of new photovoltaic installations in 2020, half of the German installers state a negative impact on their photovoltaic business due to the coronavirus pandemic. For 2021, EUPD Research forecasts an additional increase of new PV installations by 23% to 6 GW.
