Hello and welcome from Solar and Storage Life in Birmingham, UK. My name is Daniel Fuchs, and I'm the CCO at Joint forces for Solar and the International Battery and Energy Storage Alliance today. It's my great pleasure, um, to introduce my interviewee, who is Jason Wong, the general manager of Europe and Oceania at Solinteg. Jason, it's a sincere pleasure to have you with me here today. Hi, Daniel. Nice to meet you. Nice meeting you as well.

And what are the trends you recognize? Oh, UK market I think is, uh, very important energy storage, market marketing and, uh, always this is, uh, this is quite good market, uh, especially for the utility scaled. We, we all know that and, uh, we are more focused on the residential and commercial. We see the great opportunity and the potential of this market. Yeah, we also see it, uh, similar. I mean, at the end of the day, there is a stable residential market in the uk. Uh, and also CNI will be picking up gradually, uh, over the next years despite, uh, utility scale with the larger segment. But, uh, we still see more than 3.2 gigawatt, uh, of installations, uh, this year. Um, yeah. From a Solinteg point of view, what is your value proposition? Um, what do you offer, um, UK uh, energy transition to be quicker, faster, and more efficient? Uh, for us, we are focused on the residential and commercial parts, and, uh, we are provide like three kilowatt to 50 kilowatts, which is, uh, residential and commercial. What we have more focusing is, uh, use of hybrid inverters to, to do the energy saving for the end users, whatever the, the residential, all the, all the commercial clients. Mm-hmm. Okay. Yeah, I mean, a diversified portfolio, uh, is very important to serve customer needs, uh, even on an individual basis. So that's, that's great. And, um, yeah, when we look a little bit into the future, so the year 26, 27, how do you see the market, uh, developing, uh, over the next, uh, period? Oh, I think in future, in 20 26, 20 27 and future, I think this is a very potential market because we all know this market used to be a very big PV market without the energy storage, but now the dynamic pricing is become more and more popular and this can really save the cost for, for your electricity bill. So the energy storage and dynamic pricing and EMS combined together. So for next year, we believe this market will booming. Okay. We think so too. Um, thing has crossed, uh, there will be a bright future. Renewable energies are our future and won't stop, uh, for sure. Thank you very much for your Thank you. Pleasure to have you here today.
