Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - The Germany-based inverter specialist KACO new energy (link is external) has announced the opening of a new subsidiary in Jordan. The representation in Amman strengthens the company’s regional presence and expands on the spectrum of services in the Middle East.

The official opening ceremony took place on 23 April in Amman. Ralf Hofmann, CEO of KACO new energy, and Eng. Eyad Hanania, CEO of the Jordanian subsidiary, welcomed over 60 invited guests from businesses, politics and the media, amongst them the Secretary General Of the Jordanian Ministry Of Energy and Mineral Resources, Eng. Amani Alazzam.

"We are pleased that our new subsidiary can support Jordan’s sustainable development and that we can implement projects in this region of vast potential”, stated Eng. Eyad Hanania. For Jordan, 330 days of sunshine per year and an average global irradiation of about 2,000 kWh per square meter are estimated.

According to KACO, the subsidiary will principally sell the blueplanet 10.0 TL3 inverter in the residential area, the blueplanet 50.0 TL3 INT in the commercial sector and the blueplanet 2200 TL3 for utility-scale business. In that way KACO new energy can serve local demands for quality inverters and exceptional ″Made in Germany″ energy services on-site. The company can already showcase some successful reference projects such as the 162 kW system at the Al Manal Palace, the residence of HRH Prince Mohammad bin Talal.

Eng. Hanania highlights two particular competitive advantages: ″Firstly we are the only inverter manufacturer who can currently provide local service; our technicians have long-standing experience in the PV sector. Secondly, we also consider ourselves to be a long-term partner and we will be there for our customers for the whole lifespan of the PV system and certainly well beyond the current 2019 agenda.″
