Richmond, August 21, 2014 – Today it was announced that the Swiss inverter manufacturer, SolarMax will be partnering with the newly formed PV distributor, Wagner Renewables Ltd (formerly Wagner Solar UK Ltd).
Wagner will be taking stock of the domestic P series and the three-phase commercial MT range, distributing to installers across the UK. Mark Osborne, Managing Director of Wagner Renewables said: “This is an important partnership for us as SolarMax offer a highly engineered European product at market leading prices. The SolarMax range includes all of the key features installers are asking for, especially with domestic inverters already compatible for energy storage add-ons; and with this being the next game change for the solar sector, we expect SolarMax to quickly become a core product in our portfolio.”
Andy Lycett, Distribution Manager of SolarMax UK, said: “We are very pleased to be supporting Wagner Renewables. They are very well known, not only in the South East where they are based, but also throughout the whole of the UK. Wagner has been in the solar market since the development of the feed-in tariff in the UK. The company has a very loyal customer base and is therefore an ideal match for us to grow within the UK.”
Wagner Renewables now has several models of SolarMax units in stock, and will be rolling-out the range to their customer base within the coming months.
