Why The Fronius Inverter is in our top 3 Inverters we select for our customers
Choosing a good quality Inverter for your PV System makes the difference to your system of performing for only a few years to up to 25-30 years. To ensure you are choosing a good quality inverter it pays to invest in a product from a reputable company. One such company that we use is Fronius for its Fronius Primo inverters.
In our top 3 of Solar Inverter manufacturers is Fronius, an Austrian born company founded in 1945 by Günter Fronius. At that time, charging car batteries was not something that could be taken for granted. Günter Fronius was unwilling to accept this. To begin with, he repaired electrical appliances and he built his first charger using 50 Hz technology. An old army hut in Rankleiten near Pettenbach, where the Fronius family lived at the time, was the first company headquarters for this “specialist repair workshop for radios and electrical engineering”. With a small workshop next to the living quarters and his first employee Andreas Schinker, Günter Fronius laid the foundations for a global company.
In 1950, Günter Fronius expanded his product portfolio to include welding transformers. In the early eighties, Günter handed over the reigns to his children, Brigitte Strauß and Klaus Fronius. In 1992, the decision was taken to focus on the “future field” of solar energy, which is why the company today is split into three strong divisions: Perfect Welding, Solar Energy, and Perfect Charging.
Today, the company is headed by the grand-daughter of its founding member, Elisabeth Engelbrechtsmüller-Strauß and is now represented by subsidiaries in 28 countries and by sales partners and representatives in over 60 countries. The company is recognised as an innovation and technology leader and continue to drive towards the aim of the world’s power being supplied by 100% renewable energy. Under the motto “24 hours of sun”, Fronius is presenting its vision of a future without relying on fossil fuels. This is a completely new energy strategy in which only renewable sources are used to supply the population with power. The Fronius Primo inverters that we use represents an integral aspect of its product line.
