Astronergy Solar Panels

Founded in 2006, Astronergy is a manufacturer of reliable monocrystalline and polycrystalline solar panels. Also known as Chint Solar, Astronergy is a subsidiary of the Chint Group, one of the largest electronics manufacturers in China. In 2014, Germany’s Conergy production plant was acquired by Astronergy. Since the acquisition, Astronergy has continued to grow globally over the years with production facilities now in Malaysia, Thailand, Germany, and China. They also have multiple offices around the world, including an office in the USA located in Burlingame, California. Astronergy now serves and distributes photovoltaic solar modules to most countries.

Astronergy offers a range of 95W-370W monocrystalline and 145W-330W polycrystalline photovoltaic modules. Their solar products provide cost effective solutions for all types of photovoltaic installations including residential, business, community or government projects. Bloomberg has listed Astronergy as a Tier 1 manufacturer based on their production volume, along with their financial stability and longevity. Astronergy provides affordable solar panels with a reinsured warranty of 25 years as a Tier 1 solar manufacturer.

TUV Testing for Degradation in Extreme Conditions

Astronergy mono and polycrystalline modules have passed the industry-leading Potential Induced Degradation (PID) test conducted by TUV Rheinland. PID is an effect that leads to significant power output decline of PV modules under the condition of negative bias voltage, high temperature and increased humidity. During the test, PV modules from Astronergy were assessed after being exposed to -1000 V at a temperature of 85 degrees C and relative humidity of 85% for 96 hours. Astronergy's PV modules exhibited less than 1.4% degradation result, which is below the TUV standard of not exceeding 5%, the company says.
