JA Solar Panels – Premium Solar Panel and PV Cell Manufacturer

Initially founded in 2005, JA Solar has experienced rapid growth, rising through the ranks of photovoltaic product manufacturers to become a global leader in the industry. Their focus is on the development and manufacture of silicon wafers, PV cells, modules and PV power stations. JA Solar panels have been used for both commercial and residential uses including government backed projects in many countries.

While initially operating within China, JA Solar now has more than 20 branches around the world as well as 12 manufacturing bases, making their products available across 135 countries. This manufacturing power gives them an annual production capacity of 13.5GW, making them the third largest producer of solar panels as of September 2020. So is a JA Solar panel the right choice for you?

Why is JA Solar’s Financial Success Important?

The reason we usually note a company’s success when looking at their solar panels is due to the need for stability within the industry. As solar is still an emerging industry in many ways companies can come and go quickly. When we are looking for a manufacturer to do business with we always consider the long term look of the company.

One of the quickest ways to measure the stability of a company is using Bloomberg’s tier system. While many use this as a way to advertise the quality of the solar panel itself the rating is actually based on the bankability of the manufacturer based on all the information Bloomberg has access to. JA Solar was listed in the 4th Quarter Bloomberg NEF Tier 1 Ranking of 2020.

This is all very important because it means the company is sticking around and that means we can process any potential returns or warranty claims with confidence. Solar PV manufacturers offer long warranties on their products and while this may help sell them it’s all for nothing if the company goes under. JA Solar has also established an office in Australia which speeds up claims and let’s us sort out any potential issue in a good timeframe. This is to the benefit of us and our clientele.

PV Evolution Labs Top Performing Solar Panels

We have brought up PV Evolution Labs before when reviewing solar products and for good reason. Together with DNV GL they test solar panel reliability using a number of metrics in order to ascertain the best performing and most reliable panels out there on the market. As an independent body their testing carries great weight in the industry which is why so many solar manufacturers submit for testing even though it’s completely voluntary.

In the most recent report released by PV Evolution Labs, JA Solar panels were named a top performing product alongside many other big players in the PV manufacturing industry. If you would like to see a full list of top performing solar panels based on their testing you can visit their download page to grab a copy of the full report yourself.

Clean Energy Council Approved Solar Panels

The Clean Energy Council, or CEC, is a non-for-profit organisation that represents Australia’s leading renewable energy businesses as well as rooftop solar installers to further the development of clean energy in Australia while protecting consumers from nasty things like advertising fraud. Global Solar Solutions is an accredited member of the CEC as all good rooftop solar suppliers should be.

The CEC also builds and maintains a list of approved solar PV modules for installation under the Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES). This is incredibly important in order to get the most out of the returns your new solar power system can give you. A massive amount of the JA Solar range is listed in their approved modules which can be found on their website.
