Stäubli and Create Energy announce strategic partnership to revolutionise PV connector technology for the renewable energy industry.

The Swiss-based Stäubli Electrical Connectors, market-leading in connecting PV DC systems, and Create Energy, a US-based leading innovator in renewable energy solutions, are proud to announce a strategic manufacturing partnership.

Together, the companies will produce a next-generation PV DC connector designed to transform the solar and renewable energy industry and address long-standing challenges in the tracker market. This will set a new benchmark for safety, reliability, and performance.

The collaboration combines Stäubli’s legacy of excellence in electrical connectivity with Create Energy’s agile innovation and advanced manufacturing capabilities.

“We’re excited to collaborate with Create Energy to bring this innovation to life and contribute to increasing safety and performance in the PV tracker systems. Together, we’re setting a new benchmark for PV connectivity in the renewables space, and we are excited about this future collaboration!” says Matthias Mack, Vice-President Renewable Energy at Stäubli.

The new connector is specifically designed to withstand the dynamic mechanical stresses and environmental conditions unique to solar tracking systems.

By leveraging Stäubli’s high-quality materials, electrical design expertise, and Create Energy’s precision engineering, the new product promises to enhance system longevity, reduce maintenance costs, and improve overall energy yield.

“The misuse of PV connectors in the tracker market has been a persistent issue, compromising system integrity and long-term performance. I have had a close association with the North American Staubli unit for over two decades. This partnership with Stäubli allows us to deliver a purpose-built solution that not only solves this problem but also pushes the industry forward.” says Dean Solon, Founder and CEO at Create Energy.

The new connector solution will be introduced to the market in 2026, with distribution across North America and international markets.
