全球領先的太陽能解決方案品牌BenQ太陽能(BenQ Solar)將瞄準台灣市場，於10月3日至10月5日的PV Taiwan太陽能展中，展示全台第一個整合性AC Unison交流電太陽能解決方案，同時也持續推展電廠專案，以及針對偏遠地區推出微型電網解決方案(mini-grid solution)，讓在地用戶彈性地運用能源、節省發電成本，並在油電雙漲的高物價時代，達到經濟與環保的雙贏。
「BenQ 太陽能提供住宅、商用及電廠的全方位太陽能解決方案。」友達光電太陽能事業副總經理陳建斌表示：「BenQ 太陽能貼近台灣消費者的電力需求，設計出簡單方便、高效率又經濟的AC 整合性模組與微型電網（mini-grid）太陽能解決方案，一次性地滿足用戶在太陽能發電、系統安裝、監控系統、儲備能源以及混合電力使用上的多重需求。」
經濟部能源局近來推動『陽光屋頂百萬座』補助計畫，希望在2030年達到3100MW(百萬瓦)的目標，以鼓勵自有屋頂與大樓型的用戶設置太陽能板，並將多餘電力長期賣給台電，這項措施引發住宅型用戶的關注。BenQ 太陽能也特別針對台灣地狹人稠，住宅密度高，屋頂常在交錯之下產生陰影，又位於沿海地帶的特性，設計具備「抗遮蔭」與「抗鹽化」的AC Unison整合性模組解決方案，以維持太陽能模組的最大發電功率，其配套的電力監控系統，能讓住戶透過電腦及行動裝置隨時掌握發電狀態。BenQ 太陽能目前已與經銷商及銀行合作，提供住宅型用戶融資服務，以降低初期的投入門檻。另一方面，AC Unison交流電太陽能解決方案也榮獲經濟部第2屆台灣綠色典範獎，肯定其綠色服務的成效。
BenQ太陽能同時針對台灣位處偏遠地區的用戶，提供微型電網解決方案（mini-grid solution），讓用戶能在白天儲存透過太陽能模組所產生的電力供居家使用，以減少柴油或其他供電系統所需的費用，若太陽能電力不足，微型電網解決方案能靈活調度其他電力來源，達到節省成本的功效。BenQ 太陽能目前已在澎湖的東吉嶼進行微型電網解決方案的建置，預計將在2012年底前完工。
透過「全球營運、在地服務」的經營策略，BenQ 太陽能與合作夥伴在台灣的電廠專案規模累計已達38MW，也在全球各地成功地完成多項太陽能專案，並持續在包括台灣在內的各國市場拓展其通路網絡與經銷商據點，以提供客戶即時完整的在地支援，以及易於安裝、高效率與可靠的太陽能解決方案。
enQ Solar, a global leader in solar power solutions, is targeting the Taiwanese market, exhibiting Taiwan’s first AC Unison solar power solution at the PV Taiwan exhibition taking place from 3 to 5 October. It is also continuing to promote its power station projects, offering a mini-grid solution for remote areas, allowing local residents to make flexible use of energy and reducing power generation costs. In an era of high cost of living led by rises in gasoline and electricity prices, BenQ Solar is creating wins in both economic and environmental spheres.
“BenQ Solar can provide homes, businesses, and power plants with comprehensive solar power solutions,” says James C.P. Chen, Vice President, Solar Business Group at AU Optronics. “BenQ Solar understands the electrical power needs of Taiwan’s consumers, and we have used that knowledge to design an easy-to-use, highly efficient, and economical AC Unison power module and mini-grid solution. This a comprehensive approach to satisfying user needs in various areas like solar power generation, system installation, monitoring systems, power storage, and mixed-source power usage.”
The Ministry of Economic Affairs’ Bureau of Energy recently began its Million Rooftop PVs subsidy program, which aims to raise the level of photovoltaic power generation to 3100MW by 2030. The program is aimed at encouraging residents whose homes have a roof as well as building owners to install solar panels, and sell excess electricity generated to Taipower, Taiwan’s electricity utility. This program has gained much attention from residential users in particular. BenQ Solar’s AC Unison power module solution with its shade-tolerant and salt-resistant features was specially designed for Taiwan with its densely populated urban areas where rooftops are often shaded by neighboring buildings, and the proximity of many residents to the ocean. These features ensure that power generation efficiency is maintained at a high level, while a supporting power monitoring system enables residents to check power generation status via their computers and mobile devices at any time. BenQ Solar is currently working with distributors and banks to provide residential users with financing services that lower initial costs. On another front, BenQ Solar’s AC Unison solar power solution won a Taiwan Green Classics Award from the Ministry of Economic Affairs, affirming its success in delivering effective green services.
BenQ Solar is also providing a mini-grid solution for users in remote areas of Taiwan, allowing them to take advantage of power generated by solar power modules and stored during the day, reducing the cost for diesel fuel or other costs associated with traditional power systems. Should solar-derived power be insufficient, the mini-grid solution can make flexible use of other electrical sources to achieve cost savings. BenQ Solar is currently deploying the mini-grid solution on Dongji Island in Taiwan’s Penghu archipelago, with the project slated for completion by year’s end.
Drawing on its strategy of “global operations, local services”, BenQ Solar has worked with partners to complete power plant projects in Taiwan that supply a total of 38MW of electricity. In locations worldwide, it has likewise completed a number of solar power projects. BenQ Solar will continue to expand its channel network and distribution points in markets around the world, including Taiwan, to provide customers with comprehensive real-time localized support, and easy-to-install, high-efficiency, and reliable solar power solutions.
