When considering solar panel installations, it’s important to use high-quality panels from reputable manufacturers. Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF) maintains a list of “Tier 1” solar panel manufacturers, which is widely respected in the industry and is also a must for Granyt leased systems.
What is a Tier 1 Solar Panel Manufacturer?
Tier 1 manufacturers are those that have:
Supplied own-brand, own-manufacture products to six different projects
Obtained non-recourse financing from six different banks in the past two years
Demonstrated financial stability and bankability
It’s important to note that the Tier 1 list is not a measure of panel quality, but rather of the manufacturer’s financial stability and bankability.
For the most up-to-date Tier 1 list, it’s best to consult the latest Bloomberg New Energy Finance report or speak with us.
We have tried to create this list based off the best and most commonly used products on the market, apart from the panels being Tier 1 which is absolutely mandatory, should you have a preferred mounting or inverter manufacturer, please let us know and we will look to add it to the list.
