Over 1.6 billion connectors from Stäubli’s solar range have provided reliable connections all over the world since 1996. This represents a PV output of over 300 GW, which is almost impossible to believe. Matthias Mack, Director Global Alternative Energies and member of the Management Board at Stäubli, came to talk to PES about Stäubli Electrical Connectors, its company values and the future direction.
