“Should you go solar with Tier 1 Solar PV Modules?

​

This PV modules has been in business since 2000 or Decade older, and has been climbing the ranks as a popular residential solar panel manufacturer ever since. Their biggest selling point is their competitive pricing, as well as their sleek design. And you don’t have to sacrifice on performance either, as they have higher efficiency ratings than many competing panels, as well as a high energy yield.

​

The biggest downside to Indian Manufacturer is that they haven’t made it onto Bloomberg’s Tier 1 solar manufacturers list as REC Solar, Jinko Solar and Trina Solar. Typically, we recommend choosing Tier 1 solar panels for added long-term reliability, but that doesn’t mean Vikram Solar or Adani Solar panels won’t work well on your roof as they are not globally Tier 1, this module are Indian Tier 1 solar panels.
