SolarWorld’s extended workmanship warranty, which insures the workmanship of its solar panels, has been increased from five years to 10 years with a retroactive activation for all panels delivered since January 1, 2011. The company revealed  the warranty extension as it launched its Sunmodule Plus solar panels, which feature mono- and poly-crystalline panels.

“We produce a very high-quality solar panel, and to share our confidence with end consumers, we offer a strong package of comprehensive warranty protections,” said Kevin Kilkelly, president of SolarWorld Americas. “A product is only as good as its protection policies and the accessibility of the manufacturer providing them. With more than 35 years of domestic manufacturing, we stand more firmly than ever on US soil to back our product with stronger-than-ever protections.”
