With the aim of qualifying professionals in the solar energy market, the manufacturer GoodWe started the certification program for installers. The first class of the project Goodwe Plus+ had more than one hundred participants.

The event, which lasted three days, featured raffles for gifts and a smart meter, model HK1000. At the end of the course, participants took a test to then receive the certificate.
“GoodWe has been following the solar market for several years and we have seen the importance of keeping the installer qualified. So, nothing fairer than teaching us how to install our line”, he highlighted. Silvio Robusti, Marketing Manager for South America at GoodWe.
According to Robusti, the next certification should start in August and registrations will be made through manufacturer's website. In addition to qualification, certified installers will have access to a 10-year warranty for all on-grid inverters up to 20 kW from the manufacturer at no additional cost, with the warranty also extended to 7 years for inverters from 20 kW to 136 kW.
“We take great pride in creating and developing sophisticated solar technology and providing unparalleled customer service. We have great confidence in our product and want PV installers to feel like they have the full support of a world-class brand,” he said Apollo Chai, global director of Marketing at GoodWe.
Restructuring
According to the manufacturer, the expectation for innovations in the Brazilian market extends to new restructurings carried out in the marketing sector, such as the recent hiring of Robusti as area manager in South America, in line with the increase in the number of active employees in the technical support sector and commercial.
“We are structuring ourselves for a new cycle of growth. The expectation for 2022 is an even better second half, as happened in 2021”, he commented Sergio Carvalho, general director of GoodWe Brasil.
Robusti also highlights that sales increased by 25% in the first half of this year, compared to the same period last year. Still according to him, the Gray line boosted sales. “This shows that the launch of the Gray line, which is a line with a more competitive price, but with the same qualities as the other lines, was the correct strategy”, concluded Robusti.
