"This partnership couldn't have come at a better time," said Ean Kyler, CEO of Krannich Solar. "As the solar industry continues to grow and prosper, it is pertinent that we keep up with the demands of the markets we serve. We are excited to work with Solar 4 America to help us meet the needs of solar installers in the US and continue to push the solar industry forward."

The S4A module manufacturing facility in Sacramento, CA currently produces 650MW, with capacity ramping up to 1.2GW by 2023 and 2.4GW in 2024.

Recently S4A and Krannich Solar signed a supply agreement and will immediately begin receiving modules and installing them in numerous residential and commercial projects.

Currently S4A has inventory and production capacities for 2022 on an array of modules including 330W and 410W all black panels for the residential market and 410W (72 cells), 450W, 550W, and 610W solar panels for commercial and utility markets. The offering includes CEC-listed and financing for fully approved Solar4America branded energy storage systems to the residential market.

For over 25 years, Krannich Solar has supported installation partners through all phases of projects. With an ever-growing market share, Krannich Solar, an owner-managed and self-financed PV distribution company, ranks among the leading global photovoltaic wholesalers. Since 1995, Krannich Solar has steadily expanded into 27 countries due to its customer-centered model, extremely quick turn-around times, and industry-best pricing and availability on the best products in the PV industry.

Unlike electrical wholesalers, Krannich Solar exclusively carries PV products, making them experts in their field. Krannich is positioned to accommodate installers of all sizes, from DIY to MW projects, with years of expertise and extensive resources at their disposal. With offices in New Jersey, California, Florida, and Texas, Krannich Solar USA is prepared to service clients throughout North America and has a proven track record of fulfilling installers' needs in a timely and efficient manner.

After a three-year hiatus, the SPI Show is back! It's the largest and most comprehensive event in North America for the clean energy industry and brings together an extensive alliance of renewable energy leaders for multiple days of programming and networking opportunities.

Solar4America can be found at Booth 4060 at the Expo and Krannich's team will be out and about on the expo floor. Both companies will have experts available to answer questions and provide information.
