Asola - A big name in solar energy systems

Asola Advanced and Automotive Solar Systems GmbH is a German company that is a specialist in solar photovoltaic energy. The company is one the largest in the European Community in its field. They are one of the early entries into the industry and their products represent the cutting edge of technology. The company's products provide power that comes from the sun and they are friendly to the environment.

The principle behind solar photovoltaic energy is that energy from the sun is stored in monocrystalline or polycrystalline silicon solar panels. The stored energy then functions to power different pieces of equipment when they are hooked up as the stored solar energy flows from the panel to the junction box.

The front of the panel is made of solar tempered glass mounted on an aluminum alloy corrosion resistant frame. These solar panels can be mounted in a series and connected by plugs, depending on how much energy is required and can generate up to 1,100 volts of energy.

These panels are safe and efficient. They meet the Safety Class II standards and many of them are manufactured for use in the automotive industry. Asola designs solar energy products for a variety of different uses.

The company has a variety of long-term contracts and partnerships with companies in other countries in the EU for the provision of solar modules and systems. One of these deals has guaranteed Asola a steady supply of polysilcon so they are not subject to the variances in the market. There is also a plan with Erfurt to establish a plant in California and the company has plans to expand into Italy and Spain.
