The U.S. is projected to be the world’s largest solar market by 2014
• More than 100,000 Americans work in the solar industry at more than 5,600 companies in every state.
• Solar power in the U.S. now is about 4 megawatts, enough to power 730,000 American homes.
• 1,855 megawatts (MW) of photovoltaic (PV) solar systems installed in 2011, 109% increase over 2010
• The U.S. is projected by some analysts to become the world’s largest solar market by 2014. Solar is already the fastest growing energy sector in the U.S.
• During 2011, the price of solar panels dropped by 50 percent. Weighted average solar system price dropped by about 20%. Competition in the solar industry is good for American consumers.
• Continued industry growth enhances our energy security and diversifies our domestic energy portfolio

Basics of Solar Power Systems - Off-grid System: for areas lack of electricity
Basics of Solar Power Systems – Grid-tie System
Basics of Solar Central/String Inverter
Ginlong Central/String Inverter
Performance: Industry leading yield
Reliable and proven products
Maximum Yield for shorter payback period
High Efficiency
Low night Consumption
Starts to feed into the grid when other inverters haven’t started
Starts to work early when other inverters haven’t started and work longer hours during the day
Basics of Solar Micro-Inverter
Performance: Up to 25% more energy harvest
Long-term reliability: 25 years warranty
Intelligence: Module level monitoring
Easy safe installation: Low voltage, plug & play
Solar micro-inverters become mainstream
25 years warranty
Data monitoring system helps avoid losses due to unnoticed system failure
