The Japan Photovoltaic Expansion Center (J-PEC) has certified a system configuration featuring Upsolar photovoltaic (PV) modules. The accreditation, which was obtained on February 3rd, insures that Upsolar products can be installed on residences and commercial facilities in Japan, qualifying them for Government solar subsidies.

“J-PEC certification is a critical step for any solar technology provider committed to the Japanese market,” said Zhe Jiang, CEO of Upsolar. “Achieving recognition from J-PEC is a testament to Upsolar’s high quality standards. We look forward to serving the growing Japanese solar market by offering the best price-to-quality ratio available.”
