Q CELLS’ growing portfolio of solar and storage products includes the Q.HOME+ ESS HYB-G2 scalable energy storage system, which was piloted in Germany last year. This modular battery system can be scaled up to a maximum of 20 kWh capacity, at increments of 4 kWh.
During this pilot phase cooperation, Q CELLS will market TESVOLT’s high performance products – such as its containerized stationary storage solutions designed for commercial and industrial (C&I) customers – alongside Q CELLS’ complete portfolio of solar and storage products via a single Q CELLS sales contact.
This technical alliance has been introduced into France and Switzerland to help support these markets’ growing demand for energy independence and self-consumption of solar energy, and to help enable more and more installers to meet the requirements of France’s ZNI tenders for non-interconnected zones. Q CELLS’ partnership offer with TESVOLT includes the installation, monitoring, service and support of these storage systems.
Q CELLS showcases storage and broad solar solutions portfolio at trade fair
Held between February 13-15 in Lyon, France, the BePositive expo showcased France’s dynamic and changing energy sector – which sees renewables, and particularly solar, increasingly brought to the fore.
Q CELLS, as one of the leading players in the French solar market, was one of the 519 exhibitors at the BePositive trade fair, and showcased not only its Q.HOME+ ESS HYB-G2 storage solution and its collaboration with TESVOLT, but also its complete portfolio of solar modules available in the French market (including the award-winning Q.PEAK DUO-G6 half-cut cell module) as well as the Q.FLAT mounting system for C&I rooftop installations.
Q CELLS’ Head of Sales France, Stephan Maurel, said: “TESVOLT has rapidly established itself as one of the most innovative storage providers in the C&I and small utility-scale space in Europe, so we are delighted to have partnered with them on this storage alliance in France and Switzerland.”
“We are very happy that Q CELLS has chosen TESVOLT as partner to complete its high-performance storage solutions to the commercial and containerized stationary storage segment,” said Michael Geib, VP Sales of TESVOLT. “Q CELLS has an outstanding position as technology and market leader in the French market and as such we see in Q CELLS the ideal partner to push our market presence in France.”
Maeng Yoon Kim, Head of EU Sales at Q CELLS, added: “The BePositive event was yet another fantastic opportunity to assess the French solar market, which has received immense government support in recent years. Q CELLS expects further strong growth in France as the market matures and storage solutions become increasingly popular.”
“The BePositive trade fair was a great opportunity to explain and demonstrate this intelligent storage concept to the French market, as well as to showcase Q CELLS’ broadening solar portfolio, which includes market-leading solar modules and innovative mounting systems that have been designed to lower LCOE significantly,” Stephan Maurel concluded.
