EH Smith Sustainable Products has announced an agreement with Enphase Energy for the distribution and delivery of the Enphase System to the UK solar PV sector.
EH Smith is traditionally a specialist in heavyside building materials, but the new partnership is part of the company’s recent efforts to increase its presence in the sustainability market, which has already resulted in the creation of the new business EH Smith Sustainable Products.
Andrew Oram, sales manager for EH Smith Sustainable Products, said: “Enphase has created a paradigm shift in the performance of solar energy. Their microinverters ensure that solar panels work more efficiently and therefore deliver a more powerful commercial return than traditional string or central inverters. Our customers are snapping up their microinverters and we are rapidly-building a strong supply pipeline with Enphase that will make a real difference to how the UK views solar energy.”
Simon Baggaley, UK sales director for Enphase Energy, said: “We are delighted to work with EH Smith Sustainable Products as they value partnership. Enphase entered the UK market about two years ago and we have grown rapidly, keeping a strong momentum in 2014. Partners like EH Smith, serving with strong links with long-term loyal installer customers and robust local authority relationships, are a great fit with the Enphase way of doing business. We properly serve and support installers in this market thanks to our highly-specialised technical customer support team combined with the expertise on renewables and advisory approach that EH Smith Sustainable Products offers.”
