Fronius and SunWize Expand Partnership

SunWize Residential Power Systems, a leading installer in California and Oregon, determined it could lower the cost and improve service to its customers by standardizing on an inverter/monitoring solution. After evaluating a number of products, the Fronius IG Plus and DATCOM combination was selected on the basis of its technology, reliability, ease of use, and value.

SunWize customers using Fronius’ top of the line inverter and monitoring solution are able to track their system’s performance from anywhere in the world via an online portal. Lifetime access is free; the only investment required is for datalogger components used in the initial system installation. In addition, SunWize can monitor the system’s performance and will be alerted automatically in the event of a service disruption. This feature allows SunWize to further strengthen its commitment to quality and absolute customer satisfaction.

 “We wanted to standardize on a best-in-class inverter and monitoring solution to improve our operational efficiencies and deliver greater value to homeowners,” explains Paul Garvison, Vice President of Commercial and Residential Power Systems at SunWize. ”By teaming with our long-time partner Fronius, we can now offer our customers sophisticated, yet user-friendly monitoring at a nominal cost.”

 “We have for many years been a manufacturer partner of SunWize’s industry-leading distribution division,” states Gord Petroski, Director, Fronius USA, Solar Electronics Division. “We are very pleased to expand our relationship to include their rapidly growing Residential Power Systems Division.”
