Services include the first planning of a solar system, the system sizing, the choice and procurement of solar components up to the installation, training, monitoring and maintenance. The project team draws on work experience in Africa and Asia. Autarsys provides containerized energy storage systems (ESS) for off-grid or weak-grid areas at a competitive price. It allows enhancing the share of renewable energies in hybrid systems (solar PV or wind / diesel genset) to go up to 90%. Compared to pure diesel-based energy supply the ESS with renewable energy sources provides power at average 30% less costs. Another application for the Autarsys ESS are on-grid applications such as energy arbitrage and peak-shaving incorporating UPS functionality. Hoppecke has specialised in the development of new technology and services for the storage of energy and is a manufacturer of industrial batteries, systems and chargers. The range of storage batteries is complemented by latest charging methods and monitoring units to form complete systems. Systems for energy services range from the purchase of a battery system to full service models with variable charges. In the last 15 years, Schletter has set up solar mounting systems for solar plants all over the world with a total installed power of 15 GW. As producer of innovative light metal products, Schletter develops and manufactures state-of-the-art solar mounting systems from aluminum and high-grade steel. With focus on the sector of fastening technology, the company produces most components in their factory, starting from simple screws up to the complete substructure. Besides this, Schletter GmbH is engaged in installation and system operation. The company SMA Sunbelt Energy GmbH is a 100% affiliated subsidiary of SMA Solar Technology AG. The company is engaged in the development, design, procurement, construction, operation and maintenance of photovoltaic hybrid projects around the world.

SolarWorld offers system solutions for all solar energy applications and additional services that safeguard the smooth operation of solar power systems. Sunset produces solar PV modules and hot water systems using modern German machinery. Their services comprise design, consultancy, installation, as well as maintenance. Depending on customers' wishes, construction requirements and the desired system size, Sunset applies a wide range of solar systems with various technologies, implementing anything from roof-mounted systems to large-scale facilities. Qinous develops and manufactures intelligent, highly standardized, Plug & Play energy storage solutions (ESS) based on long lasting Li- or Na-ion batteries. The Qinous ESS is designed for island grids as well as grid connected applications in the commercial, industrial, and public sector in the power range of 30 kw to the MW-range. The Qinous ESS enables for example significant diesel fuel reduction and cost savings on island grids that are currently only operated by diesel generators by perfectly integrating wind and solar energy into these grids with its integrated, user-friendly micro-grid site controller. The standardized approach and its simple-to-installand-use design and system control ease the installation and operation of this otherwise complex technology, reduces the overall costs of storage systems, and thus helps to facilitate the dissemination of stationary storage systems worldwide.
