  5. CNPV Solar Panel Review

China’s Solar Industry is the biggest in the world with 5 of the biggest Solar Panel Manufacturers. The low costs of Chinese Solar Panels have made them capture almost 40% of the world’s market in 2010 up from almost 0% in 2005. The remarkable growth in the Chinese Solar Panel Industry has been due to the supportive government,    low labor and capital costs and aggressive competition. This has made the higher cost solar panel manufactures cut their prices in order to retain their marketshare. Trina Solar has shown the best growth amongst the solar panel producers and it now competes with Suntech which is the world’s biggest solar panel producer. China has also got a number of Tier 2 and Tier 3 producers of solar panels. These small solar panel companies sell mostly in the spot market and quote very low prices.

    We had some panels placed on our home. The panels are Talesun TP600P 240W. I did not see a section that spoke to the quality of these panels? Has Talesun discontinued these panels and are they good quality panels? Will the have an optimal level of performance 20 years from today?
