We want to thank all our teams who have made this possible. We are going from strength to strength, and we will continue to lead the development of next-generation mainstream solar technologies.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The announcement may have been met by competitor Trina Solar&#8217;s bean-counters reaching for their abaci (or abacuses) and frantically opening Excel spreadsheets. Yesterday <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/37c7Ao3\">Trina announced<\/a> it too had joined the 100 GW club, but made no claim to being the first.<\/p>\n<p>Jinko was founded in 2006 and Trina in 1996 &#8211; so the former&#8217;s ascension has been significantly more rapid.<\/p>\n<h2>How Many Solar Panels Is 100GW?<\/h2>\n<p>It depends on the capacity of the panels, which has grown considerably over the years. Back in 2008, sub-200W panels were commonly in use for home solar installations and these days 370 watts is pretty standard. Then there&#8217;s monster modules for solar farms that in Trina&#8217;s case can be as much as 690W.<\/p>\n<p>But based on 370 watts capacity, 100GW would equal 270.27 million modules &#8211; so, more than half a billion panels between the two companies.<\/p>\n<p>100GW is around six times more the total capacity of all small-scale (&lt;100kW) solar power systems ever installed in Australia &#8211; more than 16.6GW.<\/p>\n<p>Just as another really rough back-of-virtual-envelope sort of calculation, 100GW of modules could be expected to generate 146 terawatt-hours of electricity annually. That&#8217;s 146,000,000,000 kilowatt-hours; around two-and-half times the electricity all Australian households consume annually. In 2019-20, total electricity generation in Australia was around 265 TWh.<\/p>\n<h2>Both Brands Popular Panel Picks In Australia<\/h2>\n<p>Both Trina and Jinko solar panels have been used in Australia for years and have generally withstood the test of time; backed by pretty solid warranties and a local presence for each company. The brands have been very popular here given their quality, performance and comparatively low pricing points; mainly coming in towards the budget end of the spectrum.<\/p>\n<p>There are 1,335 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/panels\/trina-review.html\">Trina Solar reviews<\/a> from customers here on SolarQuotes with an all-time average star rating of 4.7 out of 5. The 1,678 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/panels\/jinko-solar-review.html\">Jinko Solar reviews<\/a> on SQ also have an average star rating of 4.7.<\/p>\n<p>Both companies are currently listed on our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/panels\/#recommended-brands\">recommended solar panel brands chart<\/a>. In the SolarQuotes 2022 Installers&#8217; Choice Awards, Trina took out first place and Jinko second in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solarquotes.com.au\/blog\/best-solar-panels-2022\/\">&#8220;best value&#8221;
