New market overview of battery storage systems for solar energy published / "pv magazine Germany" unveilsfirst print and tablet edition

Berlin (ots) - Solarpraxis AG has published the first print and
tablet edition of "pv magazine Germany" with a comprehensive overview
of battery storage systems for solar power on the market. The
overview provides detailed descriptions of 176 systems from 38
suppliers. For the first time, a comparison of the prices for stored
electricity in cents per kilowatt hour of the individual systems has
been included. The focus is on economic viability and safety of
storage systems as well as technical issues. The print edition of "pv
magazine Germany" will be published during Intersolar Europe in
Munich in mid June.

Subsidies for storage systems for photovoltaic installations
granted by the Federal Government have led to fast growth of the
storage system market, which has become confusingly complex for
customers. The new overview provides orientation with respect to the
multitude of new storage systems for single family homes and
apartment buildings as well as small commercial enterprises. It is
based on a questionnaire comprising more than 100 questions and
developed in cooperation with Solarpraxis engineers and other
industry experts. In addition to the main system characteristics, the
market overview offers important information on the right
dimensioning and further selection criteria to help customers
identify the right storage system.

"This new market overview provides our readers with a host of
facts on battery storage systems for solar power available today,"
explains Karl-Heinz Remmers, CEO of Solarpraxis AG. Our "pv magazine"
editions equip decision-makers with the relevant practical knowledge
on the state of the art. We have been able to draw on both the
cooperation with external analysts and the know-how gathered in our
engineering and conference divisions.?

The magazine's current print edition also contains a ranking of
crystalline module producers and offers information on module
quality, as well as new business models for the solar industry.

Solarpraxis AG has been publishing trade magazines since 1998 and
launched its magazine for the German photovoltaics market, "pv
magazine Germany," in March 2013 as a German equivalent of the
international magazine, which has established itself as the leading
trade publication since it first came out in 2008. The German online
