"With our expanding customer base in the United States and increased visibility on new demand coming from Europe and Japan we have moved to strengthen our team to improve account coverage and to accelerate product development and system integration for our customers. Mr. Ganesan and Mr. Johnston significantly improve our bench strength in these two critical areas," commented Justin Holland, CEO of Eguana.

Mr. Ganeson's extensive knowledge and expertise in battery integration, power controls, and software paired with his experience and network within the US industry will drive results across Eguana's targeted channels.

We are targeting product releases for the residential solar storage market in Europe within the first half of 2016."

"Mr. Johnston's experience and expertise in power electronics and controls enables us to continue to shorten this process while driving product cost reduction within the development team." Prior to joining Eguana Mr. Johnston led a team of engineers in the design and development of tracker controllers, electrical systems, and module power electronics for SunPower Corporation, which is one of the largest residential solar companies in the US.
