GRAB OUR GUIDES ! Solar Slate 2022 editions |
Sprinting Into Spring 2022
Following on the heels of a crazy fall season, we continue to sprint into the Spring 2022 season! We’re keeping-up with demand for cabin, van, RV, and boat power systems, and providing DIY grid offset systems to reduce folks’ bills and reliance on their utility.
New module models from Hanwha QCells have landed in Canada, REC Solar’s modules continue to lead the pack for mobile & marine systems, LG stock is dwindling towards nothing as that company leaves the market, and Powerfilm has been the overwhelming choice for portable applications & HAM radio systems. Batteries and inverters have had their distribution challenges, but quality & performance continue to march forward.
