Schneider Electric, the leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, recently announced a collaboration with our company, to make Schneider Home and residential product lines more accessible to solar installers across the United States.
BayWa r.e. Solar Trade U.S. will soon make Schneider Home available to our network of installers, providing streamlined access to solar and storage solutions in one channel. Schneider Home is a first-of-its-kind energy management system that allows homeowners to manage solar, battery energy storage, an EV charger, a smart electrical panel and connected switches and sockets – all controlled through an easy-to-use Schneider Home app.
According to the Solar Energy Industries Association’s Q4 2024 Solar Market Insight Report, the U.S. solar industry installed 8.6 gigawatts-direct current (GWdc) of capacity in Q3 2024, a 21% year-over-year increase with an outlook of 2% annual growth over the next five years. BayWa r.e. Solar Trade U.S. will leverage our expansive network of sales and development professionals and distribution centers nationwide to deliver Schneider Electric’s residential products. The collaboration enhances the availability of the complete Schneider Home solution, and residential offers, including Homeline and QO load centers, breakers, wiring devices, and more, and also supports a balance-of-system approach that offers installers a competitive edge in efficiency and customer service.
“We are thrilled to welcome Schneider Electric into our network of suppliers. Their global expertise in energy management, resilience, and home efficiency aligns seamlessly with our vision of driving the transition to renewable energy.
