In an era of high cost of living led by rises in gasoline and electricity prices, BenQ Solar is creating wins in both economic and environmental spheres.

“BenQ Solar can provide homes, businesses, and power plants with comprehensive solar power solutions,” says James C.P. Chen, Vice President, Solar Business Group at AU Optronics. “BenQ Solar understands the electrical power needs of Taiwan’s consumers, and we have used that knowledge to design an easy-to-use, highly efficient, and economical AC Unison power module and mini-grid solution. This a comprehensive approach to satisfying user needs in various areas like solar power generation, system installation, monitoring systems, power storage, and mixed-source power usage.”

The Ministry of Economic Affairs’ Bureau of Energy recently began its Million Rooftop PVs subsidy program, which aims to raise the level of photovoltaic power generation to 3100MW by 2030. The program is aimed at encouraging residents whose homes have a  roof as well as building owners to install solar panels, and sell excess electricity generated to Taipower, Taiwan’s electricity utility. This program has gained much attention from residential users in particular. BenQ Solar’s AC Unison power module solution with its shade-tolerant and salt-resistant features was specially designed for Taiwan with its densely populated urban areas where rooftops are often shaded by neighboring buildings, and the proximity of many residents to the ocean. These features ensure that power generation efficiency is maintained at a high level, while a supporting power monitoring system enables residents to check power generation status via their computers and mobile devices at any time. BenQ Solar is currently working with distributors and banks to provide residential users with financing services that lower initial costs. On another front, BenQ Solar’s AC Unison solar power solution won a Taiwan Green Classics Award from the Ministry of Economic Affairs, affirming its success in delivering effective green services.

BenQ Solar is also providing a mini-grid solution for users in remote areas of Taiwan, allowing them to take advantage of power generated by solar power modules and stored during the day, reducing the cost for diesel fuel or other costs associated with traditional power systems. Should solar-derived power be insufficient, the mini-grid solution can make flexible use of other electrical sources to achieve cost savings. BenQ Solar is currently deploying the mini-grid solution on Dongji Island in Taiwan’s Penghu archipelago, with the project slated for completion by year’s end.

Drawing on its strategy of  “global operations, local services”, BenQ Solar has worked with partners to complete power plant projects in Taiwan that supply a total of 38MW of electricity. In locations worldwide, it has likewise completed a number of solar power projects. BenQ Solar will continue to expand its channel network and distribution points in markets around the world, including Taiwan, to provide customers with comprehensive real-time localized support, and easy-to-install, high-efficiency, and reliable solar power solutions.
