Not MCS certified

Why has Victron not chosen to certify their equipment to MCS standards? It makes it near impossible to get SEG payments in the UK.

MCS product standards cover PV modules and PV mounting equipment, there is no MCS specific requirement for the other components in a typical Victron system (inverters, batteries etc).

The only products Victron make that would need to be MCS certified are their PV modules, but given they are not targeted at the residential market it's understandable they haven't gone through the process as it is a fairly significant undertaking (factory audits etc).

Ah, I thought the inverter had to be MCS certified as well. Thanks for your answer.
