These solar panels can be connected to the energy saving heat pump system in PHNIX headquarter and provide power to cooling, heating heat pumps and fan coil units, floor heating accessories, controlling systems, lights, TVs, and other appliances. The usage of solar power can not only beneficial to lower the consumption on electricity, but also agree with PHNIX company vision of contribution to environment protection.

With quick emergency response ability, PHNIX can always react quickly and take appropriate actions where necessary to ensure consistent production for delivering products and service with high standard to the customers.
