GivEnergy with the brace - Top Brand PV 2024 in the United Kingdom for Inverters and Home Energy Management Systems. This is an achievement based on hard work and a strong and sustainable commitment to PV installers (and the testament are the results of the PV InstallerMonitor 2023/2024 UK). Therefore, it was Saif Islam's pleasure to hand over the seal at Solar & Storage Live 2024 in Birmingham to David Roberts, Managing Director at GivEnergy. "GivEnergy has put it's mark on the PV landscape in the United Kingdom, and has been supplying their customers with reliable and efficient solutions, to support and drive the energy transition. It is our honour to award the Top Brand PV Seal 2024 in not one, but to categories to Dave and the team, and hope you keep up the good work", says Saif Islam, Senior Consultant at EUPD Research Energy. About the Top Brand PV Supplier Award: The Top Brand PV Supplier Award serves as a distinguished recognition for companies excelling in performance at both national and regional levels. This award is determined by the perception of downstream players, particularly installers, across various categories such as modules, inverters, storage solutions, racking, and wholesale services. Conducted by EUPD Research, these surveys engage thousands of installers annually across over 30 countries. The surveys meticulously cover numerous aspects, e.g. unaided brand awareness, recommendations, distribution depth, and width etc. Consequently, the Top Brand PV Award emerges from the analysis of primary data derived from these surveys. If you have any questions on the Top Brand PV Supplier Award, contact our colleague Daniel Fuchs or Saif Islam.   More about the Top Brand PV Supplier© Award: https://lnkd.in/ew5xkEH   #solar #photovoltaics #PV #installer #givenergy #inverter #hems #uk

📈Residential and commercial #EES experienced a great momentum in #Europe in 2023. While in general commercial storage has seen the sharpest #growth rates, according to our EES InstallerMonitor© 2023/2024 data, rooftop PV and storage installers seem sensitive to its relative growth as compared to the residential segment. The average share of smaller #storage systems (under 15 kWh of net capacity) installed in 2023 by firms from 13 European markets is 5 percentage points higher compared to our 2022/2023 report. However, significant variation can be observed across markets: 🔹The share of EES under 15 kWh has seen the biggest growth wherever the residential segment has grown the most relative to the commercial segment, like in #Italy and #Austria. 🔹Compared to 2022, the proportion of residential EES has increased by a much smaller rate (or has even declined) in markets where the commercial segment has grown more in relative terms. 🔹The growth of one segment relative to the other is reflected, although to a moderate extent, in installers' portfolios and in the demand they capture. 👉Interested in these and other insights on the PV and EES market from the eyes of PV installers? In our PV InstallerMonitor© | EES InstallerMonitor© 2023/2024 you can take a close look at the business profiles of installation companies from 14 markets, as well as at competitive analyses of PV and EES manufacturers and wholesalers. More info here: https://lnkd.in/eVarRx_T. 👉We are also happy to grant access to the Global Energy Transition GET-Matrix©, a market intelligence and data analytics dashboard providing insights into the latest regulatory and market developments in ~60 global PV markets, 365 days a year.

🔍 The impact of component delivery delays on PV module stock levels across Europen markets: insights from the PV InstallerMonitor© 2023/2024 | EES InstallerMonitor© 2023/2024 According to data from our latest report, European #installers tend to purchase larger shares of #PV modules for inventory purposes on average in markets where significant delays in PV component deliveries are most frequently reported. 📊 According to our findings, based on a study conducted with more than 1,400 installation companies in 13 European countries, the #Netherlands, #Austria, #Germany, and #Sweden are the markets where the highest shares of PV modules are purchased for stock on average: from 22 percent in Sweden to just over a quarter of modules purchased in 2023 in the Netherlands. 📊 At the same time, in these markets around 20 percent of the companies surveyed reported significant delays in component deliveries. The weight of stock purchases is also correlated, albeit weakly, with the 2022-2023 YoY growth rates of installed capacity in the BAPV segment. 🔹Installation companies seem to anticipate supply issues and secure against them by restocking their inventory more. 🔹This dynamic may have significant implications in terms of inventory devaluation: installers with higher shares of inventory may be more exposed to declining component prices. 👉Interested in these and other insights on the PV and #EES market from the eyes of PV installers? Gain a more in-depth view in our latest edition of our PV InstallerMonitor© | EES InstallerMonitor©: take a close look at the business profiles of installation companies surveyed in 14 markets, as well as at competitive analyses of PV manufacturers and wholesalers. More on the study can be found here: https://lnkd.in/eVarRx_T 👉We are also happy to grant access to the Global Energy Transition GET-Matrix©, a market intelligence and data analytics dashboard which can be accessed 365 days a year to gain insights into the latest regulatory and market developments in ~60 global PV markets.
