It is important that the panels work as optimally as possible. Taylor contributes to that.<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Originating as a spin-off from Eindhoven University of Technology and based in the Brainport innovation region, Taylor has quickly developed into a leading player in the solar energy field. To date, Taylor has supplied more than 45,000 products. Underlying this growth is the cell string optimiser technology developed by Taylor. This enables optimisation of the individual cell strings in solar panels, resulting in increased output of up to 20%, greater insight into performance and improved panel safety.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"vlp-link-container vlp-layout-basic wp-block-visual-link-preview-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ioplus.nl\/archive\/en\/from-eindhoven-to-china-taylor-can-barely-keep-up-with-demand\/\" class=\"vlp-link\" title=\"From Eindhoven to China: taylor can barely keep up with demand\"><\/a><div class=\"vlp-layout-zone-side\"><div class=\"vlp-block-2 vlp-link-image\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vlp-layout-zone-main\"><div class=\"vlp-block-0 vlp-link-title\">From Eindhoven to China: taylor can barely keep up with demand<\/div><div class=\"vlp-block-1 vlp-link-summary\">Michiel Roelofs and Rein Westerdijk are the founders of Taylor &#8211; a high-tech company that works on optimizing the efficiency of solar systems. <\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Product development and team scale-up<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Taylor will use the investment for product development and scaling up the team at home and abroad.

With this investment in Taylor, ANET is supporting a technology proven to make panels more efficient, sustainable and secure.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taylor is one of the former winners of the Gerard &amp; Anton Awards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eindhoven-based manufacturer of high-tech electronics for solar panels Taylor has secured an investment of eight million euros.
