Founded in Canada in 2001, Canadian Solar is one of the world's largest and most important solar energy companies. This leading manufacturer of photovoltaic modules has won numerous awards and invests significantly in R&D, as evidenced by its record-breaking cell efficiency and thousands of global patents.
Over the past 21 years, Canadian Solar has successfully delivered more than 67 GW of high-quality modules to customers in over 160 countries worldwide. Current production spans 17 factories with a total capacity of 16 GW.
Why Canadian Solar?
Advantages of Canadian solar panels:
1. Excellent price-quality promise: Canadian Solar is known for its excellent price-quality promise, which ensures a balance between affordability and high-quality solar panels.
2. Corporate Values: Canadian Solar makes management decisions that align with its social norms and values, while maintaining a focus on the environment. Its goal is long-term sustainability in all areas.
3. Global Presence: The company operates in more than 24 different countries across 6 continents, with over 9,000 employees managing its operations.
4. Multiple certifications: Canadian Solar holds several certifications, including ISO 17025, a unique accreditation awarded to the company's testing laboratory. This certification demonstrates the company's quality and competence.
5. Internal quality testing: Canadian Solar has complete control over the production process of its technologies. This allows the company to closely monitor the quality of its solar panels, home batteries, and inverters.
6. Insured Products: All Canadian Solar products are insured, making them unique in the solar panel industry. This ensures that all warranties are covered if the company cannot meet its financial obligations.
7. Advanced technology: Canadian solar panels are known for their exceptional performance in extreme environments, such as mountainous or coastal installations. Many of their panels feature cell stress-relieving technology, ensuring reliable operation even during heat waves.
Why do we match Canadian solar panels with Enphase microinverters?
The reason is very simple. With this combination, we can offer both systems with an unprecedented 25-year warranty. Both manufacturers offer a 25-year warranty, making it an unbeatable combination right now.
By adding Enpahse's 10T energy storage system, we'll have a market-leading solution. Contact us for more information.
Why microinverters?
1. Supports a wide range of solar panels on the market: A notable feature of the IQ8 is its ability to operate with higher input currents, allowing for longer strings and fewer switchboards. This makes the microinverter compatible with the latest solar panels with larger wafer cells, resulting in cost savings and a simplified installation process.
2. Advanced monitoring and control capabilities: The IQ8+ includes Enphase's new Ensemble technology, which provides advanced monitoring and control capabilities and real-time insight into system performance. This allows installers and homeowners to quickly identify and resolve issues and make more accurate predictions about energy production and consumption. An updated Installer app version 3.27.0 or later is required to commission the IQ8.
3. Higher efficiency: Another key feature of the IQ8+ is its high conversion efficiency of up to 97.1%. This means the IQ8+ can convert more solar energy into usable electricity, resulting in a higher energy yield for solar panels.
4. Compatible with Enphase Encharge battery storage systems: The Enphase IQ8+ also supports grid-interactive and battery-ready solutions. It is compatible with Enphase's Encharge battery storage systems, allowing homeowners to store excess energy generated by their solar system for later use. Installers must be certified to install Enphase Encharge battery storage systems. More information about Enphase training is available.
5. Safety: The Enphase IQ8+ microinverter is designed with safety in mind. It has been extensively tested and meets safety standards. However, it is important to note that the Enphase IQ8+ is not interchangeable with microinverters from the IQ6 and IQ7 series.
Overall, the Enphase IQ8+ is a powerful and versatile microinverter system that offers a wide range of features and benefits for solar energy systems. With its high conversion efficiency, advanced monitoring and control capabilities, and compatibility with battery storage systems, the IQ8+ is an excellent choice for homeowners and installers looking to improve the performance and efficiency of their solar panels.
Enphase IQ8M
Enphase microinverters operate independently, maximizing the efficiency of each individual solar panel. With this system, you no longer need a large central inverter. In the event of a fault, you can identify and resolve the problem directly with just that specific microinverter or panel, instead of the entire system.
Enphase Envoy
The "brain" of this solar energy system is the Enphase Envoy. It continuously communicates with and monitors every microinverter in the system. The Envoy automatically installs software updates on your microinverters, so you don't have to worry about them. Even maintenance and management can be performed remotely with this system.
Enphase Enlighten app
By continuously collecting data from each panel and your energy consumption, the Enphase Enlighten app with Envoy-S Metered provides a comprehensive overview of each panel's status and production, your energy consumption, and tips on how to reduce your energy consumption. If a panel malfunctions, you'll be notified immediately and we'll resolve it the same day.
Charge energy storage
To complete the Enphase system, you can expand it with modular Enphase batteries. This allows you to store excess energy generated but not used during the day, so you can use it in the evenings and mornings when the panels aren't producing electricity. If you need to store more energy in the future, simply add new batteries to the system.
Expandable
A unique advantage of Enphase is its system expandability. You can gradually increase the number of solar panels, inverters, or batteries in your system over time. In a central inverter system, the inverter is sized for the total power capacity, while with Enphase, each microinverter operates independently, allowing for flexible system expansion.
Reliability
Enphase is a market leader in reliability. The system has proven to be the least susceptible to failures on the market. The microinverters are IP67 certified, double insulated, and corrosion-resistant. This results in a 25-year warranty on the inverters.
Battery storage solar panel
A lot is happening in the field of energy consumption and the net metering scheme. You can still fully benefit from the net metering scheme until 2025. Starting in 2025, the net metering scheme is expected to be gradually phased out.
A comprehensive explanation of net metering can be found in a clear article from the Consumers' Association. In short, net metering involves subtracting the energy supplied from the energy received.
What's new is that some energy suppliers have changed their feed-in tariff since September 2022. The feed-in tariff applies if you generate more electricity than you consume. Previously, this was the regular electricity rate (approximately 56 cents per kWh), but companies like Essent, Oxxio, and Eneco have lowered it to 9 euro cents per kWh.
Energy storage is becoming more interesting
Storage technology has become more affordable and has made significant progress. With extremely high energy prices, storing and using your own energy is becoming more attractive every day. Voltero Eindhoven can expand your new and existing system with advanced battery technologies. In addition to the aforementioned Enphase system, you can also opt for the Solar Edge Stored Edge system with a Solar Edge installation.
If you'd like to add a battery system to an existing installation, please contact us to discuss the possibilities. For new systems, we can include this in your quote request.
