Yang Bo,Hoymiles founder and CEO,applauds this collaboration as he looks forward to a fruitful partnership with Aptos Solar Technology. "Closing the gap between the endless solar energy and usable solar power has always been what Hoymiles strives for. As we are celebrating our 10th anniversary this year,we are excited to bring solar and microinverters to the next level in the U.S. market together with Aptos.
