Krannich Solar UK will also offer its customers a bespoke technical service to assist them during all stages of their PV projects.
The company also plans to continue strengthening its product and service portfolio by working in true partnership with leading and innovative manufacturers, only incorporating those products that pass its most rigorous and stringent German quality testing - the key aims being to provide customers with a one-stop-shop to PV solutions and total peace of mind.
"We are delighted to be opening our UK office at a time when the agenda for renewable energy deservedly gains significance, in its role to encourage all of us to make the most of solar energy,” explains Juan Romera-Wade, UK Branch Manager for Krannich Solar Ltd . “We wish to responsively take part in what we believe has to be a green revolution, where energy users can choose to reduce their carbon foot print and at the same time obtain the very attractive financial benefits of the recently introduced feed-in-tariffs.”
2010 has been a “turbulent and eventful year” for Krannich Solar. At the beginning of the year, the impending reduction in solar feed-in tariffs in Germany provoked a tumultuous demand for photovoltaic plants. “This resulted in bottlenecks when it came to the ability to supply inverter modules and solar modules, as well as price increases,” reveals the company.
In April, Krannich Solar exhibited at the IFH in Nuremberg, and in June played host to the celebrated inauguration of the Radelstetten solar park. At the beginning of this year, the 1.7 MW conversion power plant was connected to the grid.
June also saw the company exhibiting at Intersolar in Munich, the world’s largest solar energy trade fairs, while in August, the company organised the first stop on German soil for the Zero Race team, which travelled around the world in 80 days in electric cars.
15 years in the solar space
In September, Krannich Solar celebrated fifteen successful years together with customers and business partners within the scope of the "KrannichDialog" in-house exhibition.
Further reductions in the solar feed-in tariff in Germany led to a reduced demand for photovoltaic plants, although Krannich Solar reveals that this time, prices remained stable thanks to growing foreign markets.
2010 also saw the establishment of a further two new branches in the Czech Republic and Belgium, bringing the total to 15 branches in 10 countries. Krannich Solar has also seen its workforce increase from 170 to 250.
