Ikea has announced plans to trial selling solar PV systems in five of its stores in Germany. The company will offer its 2.2 KW Solstrale installation system for a minimum price of €5,500 ($4,730) at locations in Kaarst, Eching, Walldorf, Ulm and Freiburg from October, before planning to offer the product nationally in February 2019 via its website. The initiative is an extension of Ikea's collaboration with British firm Solarcentury, which has already seen the company offer solar PV systems in the UK, Belgium, Poland, Switzerland and the Netherlands.
