To meet US bankability requirements, the company has undergone a strict factory audit conducted by Munich Re. The resulting approval now provides long-term, back-to-back product warranty insurance for its utility customers, significantly protecting their long-term financial interests, particularly in the case of those operating large-scale, ground-mounted projects.

The newly signed 1.65GW contract will involve the supply of the company’s high-power H1 Series PERC modules, combining attractive aesthetics, low degradation and superior low light performance to deliver lower levelised cost of energy and higher returns on investment for customers, firmly establishing Hyperion as a reliable and trustworthy brand US customers can trust.
