GTM Research confirms Solar-Log® as a Global Leader in Residential and Commercial PV Monitoring
BETHEL, Conn., Oct. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- GTM Research (the market analysis and advisory arm of Greentech Media) and SOLICHAMBA (a consulting firm specialized in solar PV O&M and asset management) conducted their annual global market analysis of PV monitoring. The "Global PV Monitoring 2017-2022" report confirmed Solar-Log® as the global market leader for residential and commercial-size PV plants (under 1 MWp), in the independent software vendor (ISV) category. In the overall global ranking, Solar-Log® continued its impressive run over the years by achieving third place.
GTM Research (Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.) and SOLICHAMBA (San Francisco, California, U.S.) release the numbers for the global PV monitoring software market every year in their research report. More than 60 companies active in the residential, commercial, industrial and utility-scale segments were analyzed.
In the report, 80% of the top 15 international companies provide inverter-independent systems. Solar-Log® achieved second place in this highly competitive market of inverter-independent monitoring. The company's global leadership in the commercial plant segment, with an installed power output up to 1 MWp, clearly reflects that the strategy to operate as an inverter-neutral monitoring and management system. The GTM report finds the Solar-Log® system is ahead of the competition with 9.24 GWp, more than any other monitoring system, including inverter-integrated solutions.
Dr. Frank Schlichting, CEO of Solare Datensysteme GmbH, sees the study as a confirmation of SDS's corporate strategy. "We believe the results of the new GTM Research study confirm that we are very successful with our broad portfolio that focuses on the residential, commercial and industrial markets. For the future, it is clear that we not only have to become more globally active, but also have to provide a wider range of services and to bring our know-how to markets that are at the initial stage of the transition to clean energy."
