Canadian Solar PV modules have scored top ranks in the PTC (PVUSA Test Condition) ratings. More than 9,000 modules have been rated as part of the California Energy Commission’s Solar Electric Incentive program. Canadian Solar modules are among the best modules in the efficiency ratings, with the CS6P-P module line scoring an average 91% in PTC efficiency ratings.

“Since its inception, Canadian Solar products have been backed by third-party certifications resulting from rigorous formal inspection and testing to ensure they meet international standards for performance, quality and safety,” Alan King, USA general manager at Canadian Solar commented. “We consistently earn high PTC ratings, providing assurance to our customers and partners in respect to the quality, performance and longevity of Canadian Solar modules and cells.”
