EuPD Research’s industry seal of approval validates trust and satisfaction of European installers with BYD storage solutions such as the B-Box storage series
January 31 2018 – BYD Co. Ltd, the world’s leading supplier of rechargeable lithium batteries, was recognized as “Top Brand PV Storage 2018”. In the annual survey, conducted by EuPD Research, European installers have declared their confidence in the storage solutions by BYD, including the highly successful B-Box storage series. The award is exclusively given to manufacturers in the industry that could achieve both a high level of satisfaction as well as a broad reach.
The “Top Brand PV” industry seal of approval is awarded on the basis of a multi-stage analysis by EuDP Research. Qualified statements on brand perception and distribution form the foundation of the assessment. Manufacturers thus receive a neutral and unfiltered appraisal of their own brand. In addition seals such as “Top Brand PV” provide an orientation for both installers and end customers in today’s highly competitive market with its diverse and therefore often confusing multitude of offerings.
EuPD Research developed their methodology for an independent assessment for module and inverter vendors in 2010. Battery storage manufacturers were added in 2015. BYD is the first Chinese manufacturer to be awarded with this industry recognition for storage solutions, which confirms the high amount of trust BYD was able to build in the European market.
“We have definitely been able to raise the bar with the performance, flexibility and ease of installation our storage solutions such as our B-Box series provide. This has already been recognized by both industry experts and users,” said Julia Chen, Global Sales Director, BYD Batteries. ”We are very pleased that this momentum is continuing with the positive validation of installers in regards to our brand with the highly recognized “Top Brand PV” seal by EuPD Research.”
