“RobinSun's plug-in PV kits are the Ikea of PV installations for residential use. Customers self-install their kit (1-2 panels, microinverter, mount and cables), plug it into their home network and start generating solar energy immediately. From the moment the kit is plugged in, power consumption goes down in sunshine hours, decarbonizing the energy used.”
