Shoals Technologies Group, Inc. specializes in providing electrical balance of system (EBOS) solutions for solar energy projects worldwide. Essentially, they supply the critical components that connect solar panels to the grid and ensure the safe, efficient flow of electricity.
Core Business Focus
Shoals Technologies Group is primarily focused on the Balance of System (BOS) aspect of solar installations, specifically the electrical components. While solar panels convert sunlight into electricity, the EBOS encompasses all the electrical components beyond the panels themselves that are necessary to make a solar power plant functional and efficient. This includes everything from the wiring and connectors to the safety devices and monitoring systems.
Key Products and Solutions
Shoals offers a comprehensive suite of products designed to streamline the installation and operation of solar energy systems. Their offerings help reduce labor costs, improve safety, and enhance the overall efficiency of solar projects.
Their range of solutions includes:
- Custom Harness Solutions: Pre-assembled wiring solutions that simplify installation and reduce on-site labor.
- Combiner Boxes: Devices that consolidate multiple strings of solar panels into a single output, enhancing efficiency and safety.
- Junction Boxes: Enclosures that house electrical connections, protecting them from environmental factors.
- PV Wire: Specialized wiring designed for photovoltaic (solar) applications, built to withstand harsh outdoor conditions.
- In-line Fuses: Safety devices that protect electrical circuits from overcurrents.
- Racking: Structural components used to mount solar panels securely.
- String Level Monitoring Solutions: Systems that track the performance of individual strings of solar panels, allowing for early detection of issues and optimization of energy output.
By providing these integrated EBOS solutions, Shoals Technologies Group serves a global customer base, contributing to the deployment and efficiency of solar power generation around the world.
