Countries Supported by the Solaredge Inverters the Solaredge Inverters Can Be Used in Many Different Countries Last update: Nov. 2016 Countries Supported by the SolarEdge Inverters The SolarEdge inverters can be used in many different countries. This document details countries where SolarEdge approves installation of its inverters. Installation should always be done in compliance with local regulations, and in case of a conflict between local regulations and this document, local regulations apply. Summary The SolarEdge inverters may be installed in the following countries. Unless stated otherwise, the approval refers to low voltage installations. For medium voltage installations, please contact SolarEdge support. Please refer to the country details below for more information, as in some countries not all grids are supported or not all inverter models are supported. In supported countries, connection of supported inverters to non-supported grids is permitted through a transformer, if the secondary connection (transformer connection to the inverter) is identical to a supported grid. NOTE Transformer procurement, installation, maintenance and support are the responsibility of the installer. Damage to the inverter due to incorrect transformer installation or use of a transformer that is incompatible with the SolarEdge system will render the SolarEdge warranty invalid. NOTE Prior to purchasing a StorEdge system verify battery availablity and service in the country. Availability of SolarEdge StorEdge products does not guarantee battery availabllity. A country listed in bold indicates that StorEdge inverters with backup are approved for installation in that country.

  • Weak States: Causes and Consequences of the Sicilian Mafia
    Weak States: Causes and Consequences of the Sicilian Mafia∗ Daron Acemoglu Giuseppe De Feo Giacomo De Luca MIT University of Leicester University of York LICOS, KU Leuven November 2018. Abstract We document that the spread of the Mafia in Sicily at the end of the 19th century was in part caused by the rise of socialist Peasant Fasci organizations. In an environment with weak state presence, this socialist threat triggered landowners, estate managers and local politicians to turn to the Mafia to resist and combat peasant demands. We show that the location of the Peasant Fasci is significantly affected by a severe drought in 1893, and using information on rainfall, we estimate the impact of the Peasant Fasci on the location of the Mafia in 1900. We provide extensive evidence that rainfall before and after this critical period has no effect on the spread of the Mafia or various economic and political outcomes. In the second part of the paper, we use the source of variation in the strength of the Mafia in 1900 to estimate its medium-term and long-term effects. We find significant and quantitatively large negative impacts of the Mafia on literacy and various public goods in the 1910s and 20s. We also show a sizable impact of the Mafia on political competition, which could be one of the channels via which it affected local economic outcomes. We document negative effects of the Mafia on longer-term outcomes (in the 1960s, 70s and 80s) as well, but these are in general weaker and often only marginally significant.

  • Forty Days in Italy Con La Mia Famiglia: How to Research Your Italian Roots & Travel to Italy on Your Own Terms
    Praise for Forty Days in Italy Con La Mia Famiglia: How to Research Your Italian Roots & Travel to Italy on Your Own Terms “Anthony Fasano is living the dream! He returned to bella Italia and unearthed his glorious roots in four ancestral villages. His journey will inspire and delight you. Every Italian American and every American of immigrant descent (is that all of us?) will find much to savor here. Bravo Antonio!” — Adriana Trigiani, Bestselling Author of The Shoemaker’s Wife “Anthony is one of those rare people who lets passion and curiosity spur him forward. As he began to learn more about his Italian-American heritage, it was inevitable the path would lead back to where it all began, and he would let none of the easy excuses — lack of time, money, language skills — stop him. “Through fortitude and a deep, genuine desire to reconnect with his Italian roots, Anthony did what most people only dream of: he found his Italian relatives and traveled to Italy to meet them! In doing so, he’s reunited the American and Italian sides of his family for future generations as no one before him was able to. And now he’s giving you a guide to do the same for you and your family.” — Dolores Alfieri, Co-Host of The Italian American Podcast “In his eminently practical and deeply passionate guide to visiting Italy and discovering his extended family, The Italian-American Podcast co-host Anthony Fasano details step-by-step how to research and retrace your ancestral roots. The fruits of his efforts affirm that we never truly leave the past behind, but rather our past shapes and informs the person we become.” — Maria Laurino, Author of The Italian Americans: A History “My own dream of Italy was fulfilled when I visited my ancestral hometown in southern Italy in the summer of 1995 by just showing up with some names of ancestors and a few pages copied out of a local phone book which I found at the Italian Tourism Board in New York City.

  • Leonard Lester – Artist (18Xx-195X)
    LEONARD LESTER – ARTIST (1870-1952) Notes from compiler: Leonard Lester lived in Alpine in the 1930s. Compared with other San Diego County artists he was relatively unknown because his poor health prevented him from entering many exhibitions. Nevertheless, a Google search on the internet revealed that he was respected by the art community and wasn’t totally unknown. His paintings won awards in the United States and abroad.1 In April of 1937, Leonard exhibited a group of his paintings and pastel drawings at Studio 6 in the House of Hospitality, Balboa Park (Kamerling, 1991, p. 23)2. Leonard didn’t consider himself a great artist. He was a modest man and shunned publicity – dismissing awards and praise as “applesauce.” He attributed most of his success to his artwork out of doors that were nature studies. He always saw the happy and optimistic in the picture before him. According to Leonard’s widow, Marian (Plummer) Lester (1893-1991), he was better as a writer and speaker than as an artist, but that is not to say he was a mediocre artist. Marian once said, “In all the years I’ve known Leonard, I don’t believe I’ve ever seen him use an eraser.” The information for this manuscript came from interviews with the artist’s widow, Marian Lester, newspaper articles, and books. My grandparents, Henry and Birdie Schulte, knew the Lesters quite well. I knew Marian as far back as the 1960s and visited her at her apartment and studio in Pacific Beach off and on until she passed away in 1991.

  • 1860 New Rules V1.9
    Railways on the Isle of Wight A Prune Production for Prime Games nd © Prune Enterprises; Mike Hutton 2004, 2 edition 2009 Page 1 Introduction Railways on the Isle of Wight were always a triumph of public service over profitability. The first railways on the Island were party built in response to Queen Victoria’s love of Osborne House, and ran from Cowes to Newport, & from Ryde to Ventnor down the east coast. Work started in 1860, as an odd collaboration of the South of England’s bitter rivals, the LSWR and LBSC. Further lines were built by local companies, often with high hopes. Eventually trains ran from Ryde to Ventnor, Freshwater to Newport, Cowes to Ryde via Newport, Newport to Sandown, and Merstone to Ventnor (the most picturesque line on the Island). A branch line from Brading to Bembridge was added to the main East Coast line. The Southwest of the Island was never connected to the network, as the terrain and lack of prospective traffic made this region unviable. A proposal to build a line down the southwest coast was forwarded in the 1880s, but the line was never built. Life was always going to be difficult for the companies on the Island. The majority of materials required had to be imported from the mainland, using one of the three main ferry routes. The island was (and is) dotted with difficult geology. Traffic was also sporadic, as the majority of the population lived on the east coast or in Newport, and the winter months rarely provided enough revenue for the companies to survive.
