Every solar manufacturer’s PV products undergo a series of lab testing and research before they were listed on the scorecard. Generally, top performers/manufacturers are determined by the final average of the results of every bill of materials (BoM) and that is under the same model type.
In the Solar PV industry, tiers, rankings and scorecards of solar manufacturers matter a lot, particularly to solar contractors and end-consumers. Generally, these ranking lists served as primary sources for all the leading solar manufacturers in the global market.
The major players maintained their leading positions throughout the list. The top four were LONGi, Jinko, Trina and JA Solar, the same order as last year. Chint (Astonergy), Tongwei, Canadian Solar, Risen Solar, DAS Solar, GCL SI and First Solar were among the top five to ten.
Fortunately, there are a few reputable third-party solar companies such as BloombergNEF Tier 1 PV Modules List, PVEL Top Performers Scoreboard, and PV Module Index Report (by RETC) that provide reliable and accurate tiering systems for solar module manufacturers.
We use a consistent methodology for testing and ranking PV modules: the Product Qualification Program. Our process helps buyers compare products across different technologies, manufacturers and model types. Our testing goes beyond the model types of PV modules to assess unique bill of materials (BOM) combinations.
Rankings are based on performance and reliability data from the PVEL PV Module Product Qualification Program, a suite of lab and field tests that inform solar procurement and investment decisions. Click through the key takeaways below.
We are deeply committed to excellence in all our endeavors.
Since we maintain control over our products, our customers can be assured of nothing but the best quality at all times.
