FRANKFURT, GERMANY, October 12, 2025 -- Renogy, a worldwide leader in off-grid and renewable energy solutions, is pleased to announce that it has officially joined the German Caravaning Industry Association, Caravaning Industrie Verband Deutschland e.V. (CIVD).

This achievement represents a key step forward in Renogy's commitment to advancing innovation and sustainability in Europe's rapidly developing caravan and off-grid living industries.

Founded in 1962, the CIVD represents the joint interests of the caravaning industry in Germany and Europe, including manufacturers, suppliers, and service companies. As an official member, Renogy will work closely with industry partners to create integrated, intelligent, and sustainable power solutions for motorhomes, RVs, and off-grid lifestyles.

“Joining CIVD reflects Renogy's dedication to advancing the future of mobile and off-grid energy,” said Tom Li, VP of Business, Renogy Europe. “As a global pioneer in off-grid power technology, we're committed to empowering freedom and independence through clean energy — and to supporting OEM partners and dealers in delivering smarter, safer, and more sustainable power systems to European consumers.”

A Trusted Partner with Global RV Industry Experience

Since its establishment in 2010, Renogy has gained substantial experience collaborating with RV and caravan producers around the globe, supplying not only top-tier products but also a comprehensive service and distribution support for consumers, OEMs, and dealers. From product design and technical support to international logistics and customer service, Renogy's framework guarantees smooth cooperation with industry partners and consistent reliability for end customers.

CI-BUS Integration: Ready for the European Standard

Renogy's continued integration with the CI-BUS communication protocol improves its compatibility with the European RV industry's leading digital control systems. This guarantees that Renogy's REGO™ Smart Power Solutions can interact effectively with OEM platforms — allowing unified control, system monitoring, and enhanced energy management throughout the vehicle's network. This CI-BUS compatibility demonstrates Renogy’s technical leadership and dedication to providing standardized, intelligent, and connected energy ecosystems in the European caravaning market.

Advancing Sustainable Mobile Energy Forward

Through its CIVD membership, Renogy will:

  • Cooperate with OEM partners to create advanced integrated energy systems.
  • Promote CI-BUS standard implementation and innovation in the caravaning industry.
  • Help shape industry guidelines that encourage safety, effectiveness, and sustainability.
  • Increase the use of renewable off-grid power across European and global markets.

"Our vision is to make clean, independent power accessible to everyone — whether you’re on the road, at a campsite, or living off the grid," added Goetz Rutenkolk, Head of Strategic Accounts Development, Europe. "CIVD membership allows Renogy to bring this vision closer to reality, together with Europe’s leading caravaning manufacturers and innovators."

Through this new partnership, Renogy strengthens its status as the premier global brand in off-grid power solutions, enabling users to adopt eco-friendly lifestyles and explore boundlessly.
