The Solar Panel Manufacturer Scoring System analyzed hundreds of data points drawn from solar panel spec sheets, company financial statements, and state-level government statistics to score each solar panel brand. The ranking covers diverse factors, including each panel’s overall value, module quality, warranty, and the manufacturer’s financial strength and investment in the U.S. market.
“2023 was an interesting year for solar, with rising interest rates and changes to major state solar policies altering the industry landscape. It’s more important than ever that homeowners and installers have access to trustworthy information about investing in solar. That’s why SolarReviews created a list of the top solar panel brands. We’re proud of our ranking system and know that it can help consumers invest in solar confidently”, said Andy Sendy, president of SolarReviews.

As we continue to innovate and grow, we take pride in being a leader in the U.S. solar industry and our role in shaping the clean energy transition into a reality.”
