Birmingham, UK — 11 September 2025 — Ginlong (Solis) Technologies, one of the world’s largest and most experienced PV inverter manufacturers, will mark its 20th anniversary at this year’s Solar & Storage Live UK (23–25 September, Booth C60). To celebrate, the company is bringing its biggest presence yet to the show — complete with product launches, an exclusive installer promotion, and the sponsorship of the event café.

A year of milestones

2025 has proven to be a landmark year for Solis. Alongside celebrating two decades of innovation, the company has supported the commissioning of its first UK utility-scale solar project at MIRA Tech Park.

As Europe’s largest mobility research and development (R&D) site, MIRA Tech Park provides a collaborative environment and cutting-edge facilities for businesses developing new vehicle technologies. The 7MW, 11,500-panel array — led and funded by Zestec Renewable Energy and constructed by Avonside Energy — is now energised and powering facilities across the sustainable mobility campus. Solis supplied 21 utility-scale inverters and on-site engineering support for the project.

“We’re incredibly proud to play a part in this transformative project at MIRA Tech Park,” said Simon Booth at Zestec Renewable Energy. “It shows what’s possible when forward-thinking businesses commit to sustainability. Inverters play such a critical role in any solar installation, so it was important the installation team got that right. It was great to have Solis’ engineers on-site to support the commissioning and to know we were again working with a trusted inverter brand and a company which has supported Zestec projects for many years.” Read Zestec’s full release on the project here.

Exclusive 50kW installer promotion – 30% off!

To mark its 20th anniversary, Solis is offering installers across Europe an introductory 30% discount on their first purchase of the 50kW hybrid inverter for C&I applications. Available through distributors, the promotion is limited to six units per transaction — giving installers the chance to experience Solis’ latest commercial solution at reduced cost.

“We’re really excited to be back at Solar & Storage Live,” said Sandy Woodward, General Manager for Solis Europe. “Last year we just supported the café and had a smaller presence, but for our 20th anniversary we wanted to make more of a splash. This time you’ll see more of the Solis team on the ground and the chance to get hands-on with our latest tech. We’re also thrilled to be offering an exclusive promotion on our 50kW hybrid inverter to installers across Europe — and of course here in the UK too — as a way of saying thanks for all the support over the years. At the end of the day, we’re all about combining global innovation with local expertise, and making life easier for installers.”

UK debut of 125kW hybrid inverter

Visitors to Booth C60 will also be the first in the UK to see Solis’ 125kW hybrid inverter. Designed for large commercial applications, the unit brings four functions into one — solar, storage, backup, and grid support — helping businesses cut costs and boost energy independence.

Key features include:

  • Broad battery compatibility: Works with 100–314Ah cells for flexible system design
  • High efficiency: >98% efficiency for maximum energy yield
  • Scalable design: Parallel connection for projects up to multi-MW scale
  • Smart grid support: Dynamic reactive power control and fault ride-through capability

A team of Solis experts will be on hand throughout the show to walk installers through the technology and answer questions.

Celebrating 20 years — and looking ahead

From its first string inverters to today’s advanced hybrid and AI-powered solutions, Solis has spent the last two decades helping installers and businesses unlock the benefits of clean energy. Over the years, Solar & Storage Live has been a fixture in the calendar that the Solis team has always looked forward to attending. Visitors can meet the Solis team at Booth C60 throughout the show and join the anniversary celebrations.
