for those not aware SMA (link above) has 3,000 employees. SMA is one of the world's largest solar inverter manufacturers.  The SMA Sunny Portal will go live publishing SolarCoin estimates for 300,000 installations monitored on the portal. Go live is late january 2019.  The 25GW on the portal represents about 6% of global solar energy production.  For context SolarCoin currently has roughly 4,300 installations and 2,800 claimants so this is meaningful potential growth depending on how many sign up.
