Electricity from PV systems still accounts for 15% of the energy mix in France, but like everywhere else in Europe, this trend is on the rise. Accordingly, there is a need not only for technology providers who develop and improve solar panels, but also for experts who take care of the installation of new systems, both for individuals, communities and for the industry.
