DRESDEN, Germany, June 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

• Future-proof and cost-effective premium products from the German solar pioneer
• SOLARWATT to show storage solutions and systems for intelligent energy management at Intersolar 2012

Photovoltaics will also pay off in the future. From 13 to 15 June 2012, SOLARWATT AG will present its new solar power systems at the Intersolar trade fair in Munich (hall A1, booth 450). The systems complement the German premium manufacturer's photovoltaic solutions with an energy storage device and an energy manager, so that the entire solar power system can intelligently and gradually take over on-site solar power generation for buildings based on customer needs.

SOLARWATT is thereby responding to requirements for on-site solar power consumption stemming from the amended German Renewable Energy Act (EEG) and its anticipated changes to the feed-in payment for solar power. "The new regulation will presumably establish that as of a certain plant size, a portion of the electricity generated must be used on-site in order to ease strain on power grids", explained Detlef Neuhaus, head of marketing at SOLARWATT AG. "That's why we're focusing on sustainable photovoltaic solutions that will continue to provide solar power at competitive costs, even after the EEG remuneration has been discontinued. This will show that investing in a solar power system also pays off in the long run in light of ever-increasing energy prices, while guaranteeing customers a high degree of self-sufficiency."

Note: Journalists can learn more details at a press conference on
14 June 2012, 11:00 AM at the SOLARWATT AG booth (hall A1, booth 450).
