Axitec solar panels reviews

Axitec Energy GmbH & Co. KG has been on the solar scene since 2001. Headquartered in Germany, Axitec solar panels destined for the Australian market are manufactured in China. However, the company is keen to point out all research, development and engineering is carried out through Germany.

The company's Australian subsidiary, Axitec Energy Australia Pty Ltd, was established in late 2019 and has third-party logistics warehouses in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Adelaide - and the latter is also the location of the registered Australian head office.

Prior to establishing the Australian subsidiary, Axitec solar panels were available here for quite some time - up until around mid-2017 when the Clean Energy Council delisted all Axitec modules due to "serious non-conformance" issues.

But that appears to be water under the bridge, with the CEC currently listing dozens of models as being approved for use here. The CEC has tightened up quality controls since 2017, so the bar has been set even higher than it was back in 2017 to be eligible for inclusion (and staying there).

Among the models currently available in Australia suitable for residential applications are 370 Watt and 400 Watt panels, both accompanied by a 15 year product and 25 year performance warranty. Axitec solar panels currently use "half-cut" solar cell technology, popular with many major manufacturers these days. One of the benefits of panels with half-cut cells is they better resist the effects of shading.

We haven't had much in the way of feedback - positive, negative or neutral - from Australian customers or installers on the brand since the local subsidiary was established. If you have these modules installed on your rooftop, leave a review of Axitec solar panels here and share your thoughts on their quality and performance with other Australians who may be considering the brand for their installation.
