Trina Solar Panels. They’re jolly good.<\/p><\/div>\n

Trina solar panels<\/a> took the stage this week as the solar manufacturing giant was named the most bankable PV producer in the world.<\/p>\n

The survey, conducted by Bloomberg New Energy Finance<\/a> (BNEF), asked banks, asset managers, engineering contractors, consultants and independent power producers from across the globe which \u201cmodule manufacturers were most likely to obtain non-recourse debt financing by commercial banks\u201d, according to a Feb 17 Trina press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to PV Magazine<\/a>, Trina was the only solar manufacturer that all respondents agreed was bankable.<\/p>\n

Teresa Tan, Chief Financial Officer of Trina Solar, said the award was a testament to the company\u2019s \u201csustainability and strength\u201d in the solar PV marketplace and its ability to concentrate on delivering \u201c… bankable PV solutions that are innovative and that will provide the best returns for our customers\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The result is richly deserved, according to Solar Quotes\u2019 chief Finn Peacock.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrina are great Tier 1 panels. They invest heavily in innovation and have strong links with the Australian National University\u00a0(ANU) \u2014 one of the world\u2019s leaders in PV research,\u201d he said. \u201cIn particular their \u2018smart panels\u2019 with built-in panel level optimisation are reported to be performing spectacularly well in Aussie conditions.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However Finn sounded a note of warning to Australian customers looking to cash in on the reputation for excellence of Trina solar panels.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only thing that can catch the unwary consumer out when buying Trina is the possibility of getting a \u2018grey (unofficial) import\u2019. There have been some reports of some of these grey imported Trina solar panels floating around the Aussie market.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Check Finn\u2019s article<\/a> for more information on \u201cgrey imports\u201d, the problems associated with them and how to avoid making the wrong purchasing decision.<\/p>\n

So over to you. Do you have experience with Trina solar panels<\/a>? If so, would you recommend them to your friends and neighbours? Most of all we\u2019d like to hear if you think they deserve BNEF\u2019s \u201cmost bankable\u201d award.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
