			<title>Duty-paid modules available at attractive prices </title>
			<link>http://usa.krannich-solar.com/us-en/company/news-and-media/article/article/verzollte-module-zu-attraktiven-preisen-verfuegbar.html</link>
			<description>Provisional anti-dumping duties passed</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Last week the EU Commission announced 11.8% provisional anti-dumping duties, however uncertainty in recent weeks has meant that the available supply of reasonably priced products across Europe is declining. Once again, Krannich Solar demonstrates its business acumen and has filled its warehouse: we can continue to offer even larger quantities of Axitec, Bosch, Luxor and Hanwha Q-Cells modules at attractive prices and we are therefore best prepared to deal with your enquiries.
<h3>The EU directive on anti-dumping in detail</h3>
From 6 June 2013, a provisional anti-dumping duty of 11.8% will be levied in the EU on all wafers, cells and modules of Chinese origin. Should no negotiated settlement be reached with China by 5 August, average import duties of 47% will then automatically come into effect. The duties will be between 37.2 and 67.9 percent depending on how well the Chinese companies involved have cooperated with the EU Commission in the proceedings.

The final decision on the imposition of punitive duties will be made by the EU Council of Ministers on 5 December. A decision will also be made on this date about the retrospective imposition of import duties, which could then be collected as far back as 5 March. A majority of EU member states is needed for the duties to enter into force, however, to date, the majority of the member states have spoken out against the import tariffs.
<h3>Secure attractive prices now</h3>
Now is the time to persuade your customers to invest in a solar system. The impending rise in the punitive tariff applicable after 6 August 2013 could increase the price of modules, while the feed-in rate continues to fall, thereby lowering returns.
<br /><br />Our customers will be on the safe side with duty-paid products from wholesalers, because, as the original purchaser of imported solar products, Krannich Solar will bear all duty and import charges. This will also apply to any retroactively imposed punitive tariffs.]]></content:encoded>

			<title>New to the range: Innotech Solar</title>
			<link>http://usa.krannich-solar.com/us-en/company/news-and-media/article/article/neu-im-portfolio-innotech-solar.html</link>
			<description>Modules Made in Europe with good price-perfromance-ratio</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In May 2013, Krannich Solar brought another strong partner for powerful photovoltaic modules on board, Innotech Solar (www.innotechsolar.com).<br /><br />The company's cooperation with the Scandinavian module manufacturer is of benefit both to PV installers and installation operators:

<h3>Exceptional quality and a small CO2 footprint</h3>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <br />Innotech Solar can look back on a ten-year track record in the production of crystalline solar modules, which incorporates a wealth of accumulated experience, constant innovation and the highest quality standards. The results are the special quality features of ITS modules such as optimised, high-performance cells that are free of hot-spots, generous positive sorting (-0/+10 Wp), environmentally friendly production with a 74 % smaller CO2 footprint along with stable production and supply conditions.

<h3>Price certainty of EU products</h3>
<br />The expansion of the product portfolio to include European solar modules also guarantees independence from the EU anti-dumping directive that applies to photovoltaic components originating in China. Cooperation between Krannich Solar and Innotech Solar also enables installers to profit from price certainty that affords them greater planning security.

<h3>Proximity offers advantages</h3>
<br />The geographical proximity to the European manufacturer Innotech Solar also results in shorter transport routes. This is not only environmentally friendly as it saves on CO2 emissions, but also of benefit to customers and system operators in terms of logistics. Shorter routes and faster delivery times allow greater flexibility when it comes to planning installations. They also enable prompt replacement in the event of damage and ensure faster availability of new developments.

&quot;The cooperation with Krannich Solar is almost tantamount to an award for our ITS solar modules,&quot; says Dr. Thomas Hillig, Vice President Modules Sales &amp; Marketing at Innotech Solar. &quot;That's because we know that Krannich Solar tests all products thoroughly before passing them for distribution.&quot; Kurt Krannich, Managing Director at Krannich Solar, confirm this: &quot;Only when all components have been checked and performance and safety criteria met do we include a product in our portfolio. The quality of the ITS modules impressed us in every respect!&quot;]]></content:encoded>

			<title>Dome Mounting Systems by K2 Systems</title>
			<link>http://usa.krannich-solar.com/us-en/company/news-and-media/article/article/dome-montagesysteme-von-k2-systems.html</link>
			<description>For each request, the best system</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Lighter, faster, cheaper - these are the main advantages of the K2 Dome products developed by K2 Systems. These roof systems are especially created for flat roofs with low ballast potential and provide higher yields.<br /><br />In order to provide for any flat roof the optimal solution, there are two different systems: the double-sided elevated K2 Double Dome System, known as &quot;K2 D-Dome&quot;, and the single elevated K2 Single Dome System, known as &quot;K2 S-Dome&quot;. <br /><br />Whether it's &quot;Double&quot; or &quot;Single&quot; - both systems have their advantages. D- and S-Dome system will be installed with simple K2 components, whereby the construction time is reduced considerably. But it is not only that costs of installation time can be saved, but also for mounting products. Both are clearly reflected on the credit side of the return on investment. In terms of security and stability, the K2 Dome Systems are not inferior to the other K2 mounting systems.

<h3>The K2 Double Dome System</h3>
This system can be mounted on flat roofs with doubled orientation. It is elevated on both sides and thus ensures optimal sun exposure, even if the system is not south oriented. Due to the elevation degree of only 10°, the shading clearances are minimal.

Especially small and medium-sized industrial enterprises can increase the consumption of the power generated by their own PV system. Thanks to the angle of 10 ° it is possible to achieve about 80% more performance in comparison to a conventional south elevation system.

<link 347 - mehr>Mounting is child's play (video)</link>
<h3></h3>
<h3>The K2 Single Dome System</h3>
In contrast to the K2 Double Dome, the Single Dome System is elevated only in one direction. This system is particularly suitable for flat roofs with south orientation. A windbreaker on the back ensures optimal aerodynamic behaviour, which was professionally tested in a wind tunnel. Through the south-orientation, it is possible to achieve maximum yields.

The angle of 10 ° enables small distance shading. For this reason, it is possible to achieve about 30% more performance in comparison to a conventional south elevation system. As the K2 D-Dome System, the S-Dome System is also one of the most affordable lightweights in the assembly systems.

			<title>Speicherförderung sichern mit Krannich Trinity</title>
			<link>http://usa.krannich-solar.com/us-en/company/news-and-media/article/article/speicherfoerderung-sichern-mit-krannich-trinity.html</link>
			<description>Seit 1. Mai 2013 werden Batteriespeicher über die KfW gefördert.</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Der Wunsch des Verbrauchers nach Unabhängigkeit vom Strompreis und vom Stromversorger gewinnt in Deutschland immer mehr an Bedeutung. Dies belegt auch eine Umfrage des BSW, die Ende 2012 durchgeführt wurde, wonach PV-Privatkunden ein großes Interesse an Batteriespeichern haben. Die nun genehmigten Förderzuschüsse für PV-Speicher werden die Nachfrage nach entsprechenden Lösungen sicher anfachen.

Für das Speicherprogramm sollen in den nächsten drei Jahren jährlich rund 50 Mio. Euro zur Verfügung stehen. Damit könnten nach Berechnungen des BSW-Solar bis zu 15.000 Speicher pro Jahr gefördert werden, bei einer Durchschnittsgröße von 5 kWp. Damit könnte das Programm Investitionen in einer Größenordnung von 150 bis 200 Millionen Euro pro Jahr auslösen.<br /><br />Die Förderhöhe hängt von der Größe der Photovoltaik-Anlage und den Anschaffungskosten des Speichersystems ab. <span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />30 Prozent der Kosten für das Speichersystem werden bezuschusst.</span> Der maximale Fördersatz für Neuanlagen liegt bei <span style="font-weight: bold;">max. 600 Euro pro Kilowatt Solaranlagen-Leistung</span> und für Nachrüstungen von bestehenden PV-Anlagen bei max. 660 Euro. Darüber hinaus muss die <span style="font-weight: bold;">Einspeiseleistung der PV-Anlage auf 60% der Anlagenleistung reduziert werden</span> und der Batterie-Hersteller muss eine <span style="font-weight: bold;">7-jährige Zeitwertgarantie</span> mitliefern.

Die Eigenverbrauchslösung Krannich Trinity bietet eine große Auswahl an Paketen welche die o.g. Anforderungen erfüllen. Sowohl der Nedap Power Router als auch der SMA Sunny Island können auf 60% Einspeiseleistung reduziert werden und alle Hoppecke-Batterien mit einer angenommenen Lebensdauer von 12 Jahren gewähren die 7-jährige Zeitwertgarantie. D.h. alle Krannich Trinity-Pakete mit einer t12-Batterie von Hoppecke erfüllen die Anforderungen und sind damit förderfähig.

Mit den vorkonfigurierten Paketen kann der Installateur für jede Anforderung schnell und sicher die passende Lösung für den optimalen Eigenverbrauch seines Kunden auswählen. Krannich Trinity gibt es für eine Anlagenleistung von 3 bis 15 kWp. Die Pakete wurden herstellerunabhängig für optimale Effizienz und beste Kompatibilität zusammengestellt. Mittels Werten wie Dachgröße, Strombedarf und gewünschtem Autonomiegrad wird das passende Paket ausgewählt. Je nach Anlagenleistung und Speicherkapazität können zwischen 40 und 70% Autonomie vom Stromlieferanten erreicht werden.

Die Möglichkeit der dezentralen Speicherung von Solarstrom wird für den Vertrieb von Photovoltaikanlagen immer wichtiger. Mit dem Förderprogram gibt es nun ein weiteres wichtiges Vertriebsargument, jetzt in eine PV-Anlage zu investieren.

			<title>Krannich Solar at Intersolar Europe 2013 in Munich, Germany</title>
			<link>http://usa.krannich-solar.com/us-en/company/news-and-media/article/article/krannich-solar-bei-der-intersolar-europe-2013-in-muenchen.html</link>
			<description>19 - 21 June 2013, Hall A6, Booth Nr. 290</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[The energy transformation has powerful opponents. But Krannich Solar also has powerful solutions. Visitors at Intersolar Europe 2013 in Munich will have an opportunity to find out more about these solutions.

In Hall A6, Stand No. 290, Krannich Solar presents solutions for accelerating the energy transformation. For private individuals, commercial enterprises, agriculture, industry, communities and local authorities, for each one of us.

<h3>Krannich Solar will be presenting the following themes at Intersolar Europe in Munich:</h3>
<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Independent - Krannich Trinity, the clever solution for storing solar power</span><br />Krannich Trinity offers a large selection of packages for storage solutions configured for the many requirements of facility operators. By making use of pre-configured packages, installers can quickly and safely select the right solution for optimising their customers' own consumption.

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Easy-to-install - The K2 Double and Single Dome System for flat roofs</span><br />This light and aerodynamic system, which does not require a lot of components, impresses with a good price/performance ratio and rapid installation. The Double Dome System (&quot;D-Dome&quot;) elevated on both sides, and the Single Dome System (&quot;S-Dome&quot;) elevated on one side, are particularly suited for flat roofs with small load reserves. 

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Secure - The K2 fastening technology for any challenge</span><br />The new CrossHook 4S is sure to get the attention of trade fair visitors. This light and height-adjustable K2 roof hook can be used to adjust the height of the system, and is therefore also suited for older and uneven roofs.

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Clever - How businesses reduce their electricity costs</span><br />By using their own solar system, commercial operations can save operating costs and guarantee stable electricity prices. However, PV facilities for commercial operations are not of the &quot;one size fits all&quot; variety. Krannich's medium-sized business solution gives PV installers the option of developing a new market segment, and enables them to distinguish themselves with professional and sound advisory services.

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Rapid - The Krannich WebPortal for orders 24/7</span><br />Whether you are looking for information on system configurations, price inquiries, rush orders or marketing support - in the WebPortal, PV installers can browse the segments Webshop, PVplus and Marketing Support to access a wide range of services for successful contract implementation.

Traditionally, Krannich Solar has invited visitors to the &quot;Blue Hour&quot; (Blaue Stunde) at its trade fair stand at the end of the day. Visitors can unwind after a busy day on Wednesday, 19 June, and Thursday, 20 June, between 5:00 pm and 6:00 pm with relaxing music, fine finger food and cool drinks.

Come to Munich and visit Krannich Solar at Intersolar 2013!]]></content:encoded>

			<title>SolarEdge: New products</title>
			<link>http://usa.krannich-solar.com/us-en/company/news-and-media/article/article/solaredge-neue-produkte.html</link>
			<description>Greater compatibility and large installations</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[The product portfolio of inverters and power optimisers from SolarEdge, which has proven extremely successful to date, is now being enhanced to facilitate the use of third-party inverters. Also new is the ability to monitor and optimize the output of PV installations &gt; 1 MW at module level.

<span style="font-weight: bold; ">OPI300-LV with IndOP™-Technologie</span>
The use of Independent Optimisation technology (IndOP™) allows the OPI300-LV power optimiser to be connected to any inverter. No additional interface is required. The optimiser achieves a power increase of up to 25 % at an average efficiency of 98.8 %. The stable module voltage provides for optimum safety during installation, maintenance or in the event of fire. Monitoring at module level requires the Safety and Monitoring Interface (SMI-35). 

<span style="font-weight: bold; ">OP600-96V</span>
This module add-on is ideally suited to large PV installations and commercial systems. It is compatible with SolarEdge inverters upwards of 16 kW. Monitoring at module level enables rapid troubleshooting and simplifies the maintenance of installations. Even partially shaded installations can achieve a high efficiency of 99.5 %. The installation of strings of different lengths or orientation is also possible without difficulty. 

<span style="font-weight: bold; ">SMI-35</span>
The Safety and Monitoring Interface SMI-35 is installed between SolarEdge power optimisers and inverters from another manufacturer. This means that all inverters can be used to perform monitoring at module level. To enable this, the interface gathers output data of the individual modules (as measured by the power optimisers) and of the inverter. This data is then sent to the monitoring server. Data communication is via RS232, RS485 or Ethernet.

			<title>Europäische Module verfügbar!</title>
			<link>http://usa.krannich-solar.com/us-en/company/news-and-media/article/article/europaeische-module-verfuegbar.html</link>
			<description>Schlagen Sie der EU ein Schnippchen….</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Mit europäischen Modulen sind Sie immer auf der sicheren Seite. Sowohl die Qualität unserer Marken steht für hohe Zuverlässigkeit als auch mögliche Strafzölle wegen Antidumping spielen für diese Module keine Rolle.<br /><br />Die drei Hersteller Axitec, Bosch und Hanwha Q-Cells zeichnen sich durch herausragende Leistung und erstklassige Erträge ihrer Module aus. Darüber hinaus werden europäische Module nicht vom sogenannten „Anti-Dumpingverfahren“ und damit möglichen rückwirkend verhängten Strafzöllen betroffen sein.

Doch auch mit vom Großhandel verzollter Ware ist der Installateur auf der sicheren Seite, als Erstkäufer von importierten Solarprodukten übernimmt Krannich Solar alle Zoll- und Einfuhrkosten. Dies gilt auch für möglicherweise rückwirkend verhängte Strafzölle. Der Kauf von europäischen oder verzollten Modulen bei Krannich Solar schützt also Sie und Ihre Kunden vor bösen Überraschungen und gibt Ihnen Investitions- und Finanzierungssicherheit.

Der nach dem 6. Juni 2013 drohende Strafzoll könnte Module verteuern und die weiter sinkende Einspeisevergütung verkleinert ebenfalls die Rendite. Überzeugen Sie deshalb jetzt Ihre Kunden, in eine Solaranlage zu investieren. ]]></content:encoded>

			<title>Bundled energy - Solar power versus horse power</title>
			<link>http://usa.krannich-solar.com/us-en/company/news-and-media/article/article/sonnenpower-versus-pferdestaerken.html</link>
			<description>Interim report on the photovoltaic system Bläsihöfe in Wiesensteig at the foot of the Swabian Alps...</description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[In terms of horse power, the photovoltaic system at the horse farm &quot;Bläsihöfe&quot;, which was installed in 2011 and 2012, tops the energy values of its four-legged inhabitants by several magnitudes.

Within the course of one year, PV facilities with a capacity totalling 244 kWp were installed on the four roofs of the stables and riding hall in two sections. The Bläsihöfe on-roof power plant consists of 1,140 solar modules from Suntech, nine Sungrow inverters and a K2 Systems mounting system.

The 67 kWp system, which went into operation on 7 November 2011, already produced 67,000 kWh of electricity by the time the second 177 kWp system was installed. Both systems together generated 72,400 kWh of electricity from solar power as of January 2013. Operators, installers and participating companies are very satisfied with this interim result.]]></content:encoded>
