The certification process involved rigorous testing against mechanical and environmental stresses, including hail damage resistance and standard design qualification protocols like IEC/EN 61215. By meeting these benchmarks, the modules aim to provide investors and asset owners with greater predictability regarding long-term performance and insurability in regions prone to extreme weather.

Dr. Shawn Qu, Executive Chairman and Chief Technology Officer, noted that as extreme weather events increase in frequency, hardware resilience becomes a primary factor in project bankability. The designation serves to reduce hail-related operational liabilities, helping to protect revenue streams for utility-scale projects throughout their lifecycle.
