From March 2014, CCL Components Ltd -- one of the UK'ss leading technical distributors in the renewable energy sector -- will begin taking deliveries of the SolarMax P series and MT series string inverter ranges for distribution to solar PV installers across the UK. Based in Scotland, CCL offers next-day delivery throughout the UK and European markets.

“As CCL is continuing to grow, we wanted to add another high-quality, competitive, European manufactured string inverter range into our portfolio, whilst SolarMax was looking to partner with a progressive technical distributor keen to showcase their products, said Paul Brooks, managing director of CCL. "We particularly liked the battery storage upgrade option offered by the SolarMax P series range, providing installers with potential repeat business from the same customer, and end users with a future-proofed inverter.”

Andy Lycett, Wholesale Manager of SolarMax UK, commented that the deal underlines the commitment SolarMax is making to the UK PV market in light of the investment SolarMax has undertaken in the country recently. "This deal with CCL provides great synergy, and is a signal of intent for 2014 and beyond," he explained.
