Qcells Q.PARTNER program goes from strength-to-strength as network exceeds 1,000

  • More than 1,000 Q.PARTNERS are now working with Qcells across the EU
  • Q.PARTNER program is a long-standing collaboration between Qcells and a variety of solar professionals, delivering mutual benefits
  • Training session roadshow held in January across Germany helped to further strengthen relationships with Q.PARTNERS
  • Qcells’ Head of EU Marketing, Sinah Sartori, said: “The development of the Q.PARTNER program is extremely encouraging, as the program serves as an essential pillar in strengthening our customer relationships. As our product and services portfolio evolves, it is vital to inform our 1,000+ Q.PARTNERS about the opportunities available to them. This is why our training session roadshow was so meaningful.”

[Berlin, Germany, February 22, 2019] Hanwha Q CELLS GmbH (“Qcells” or “The Company”), the German subsidiary of one of the largest solar cell and module manufacturers in the world, Hanwha Q CELLS Co., Ltd., can today confirm that the Company began 2019 with more than 1,000 Q.PARTNERS in its ever-expanding EU network of trusted solar installers and distributors.

Devised as a means to ensure that solar professionals working with Qcells receive all the necessary marketing, branding and sales support, the Q.PARTNER program has become a beacon of what it means to work with Qcells across the European Union (EU).

Member numbers in the Q.PARTNER network now exceed 1,000, with a significant number of Q.PARTNERS operating in most of the leading solar markets of Europe. The number of registered partners is expected to continue growing in 2019 as Qcells seeks to build upon the strong foundations the Company has established throughout Europe over the past couple of years.

Growing EU market and evolving Qcells portfolio create further opportunities

As a leading solar module, systems and storage supplier, Qcells must constantly strike a balance between expansion and responsibility, not least in ensuring that the Company’s growing network of Q.PARTNERS receives the necessary support. The network helps ensure that the end customer is accurately introduced to Qcells’ product portfolio, and that the installer is equipped with the right amount of insight, product knowledge and supportive marketing material to ensure they are able to offer precise and comprehensive advice.

Given Qcells’ growing market share across Europe (the Company has been confirmed by EuPD Research as having the largest solar market share in Germany in 2018, for example), as well as Qcells’ broadening product and service portfolio for 2019, Qcells conducted a training session roadshow in mid-January to help explain the Company’s smart energy solutions, which in Germany will include the Q.HOME Cloud and Q.ENERGY in 2019. These additions to the Company’s portfolio see Qcells move into the next generation of energy solutions by becoming a fully integrated provider of clean energy, offering customers the chance to become 100% fully autonomous consumers of their electricity.

More than 170 Q.PARTNERS attended the training sessions held in Münster, Soltau, Thalheim, Pforzheim and Augsburg, where demonstrations of Qcells’ Q.HOME+ ESS storage solutions were also given. Due to the high interest, further Qcells roadshows are planned over the course of the first half of 2019, resuming in Germany in March.

Qcells’ Head of EU Marketing, Sinah Sartori, said: “The development of the Q.PARTNER program is extremely encouraging, as the program serves as an essential pillar in strengthening our customer relationships. As our product and services portfolio evolves, it is vital to inform our 1,000+ Q.PARTNERS about the opportunities available to them. This is why our training session roadshow was so meaningful.”
