    Renewable energy calls for reliable energy storage

    Renewables like wind and solar energy are intermittent by nature. To successfully master the energy transition, reliable energy storage systems are a must to provide the necessary supply stability. This opens up attractive growth opportunities for solution providers – but also requires huge investments, whose profitability depends on the long-term performance of assets.

    Green Tech Solutions pools expert resources and know-how in the field of renewable energies. Our warranty insurance solutions help to secure your sustainable business in the long run.

    Know the risks

    Energy storage systems often involve the complex integration of multiple high-tech components. These are all prone to failure and malfunction, particularly over long periods of ten years and more.

    As a manufacturer and system integrator you have to provide your customers with warranties. However, excessive warranty claims or a gap of warranties can negatively affect your financial stability.

    Serial failure events can cause high cumulative warranty claims
