Thanks Eric. A follow on question if you don't mind.

Do you know how a solar site typically gets specified, who determines which companies inverter is selected, and I guess that differs if it's a residential site compared to an industrial one?

I assume an energy company for example doing a large scale site manage the project themselves and go through a formal quoting/approval process, but do solar panel manufactures like First Solar for example, typically only work with certain inverter companies like Power-One, or is it more a free for all?

On a smaller site I guess there are specialist integrators who manage the project, or do some solar panel manufacturers have their own internal teams who put together the whole site and manage it to completion?
