Upsolar Receives Very Good From German Ko Test Magazine


Following the independent testing results of the German magazine Öko-Test (April 2010), China based Upsolar was rated “very good” among 15 international solar photovoltaic suppliers.

Only 4 companies obtained a “very good” rating, and Upsolar was the only one of 7 Chinese companies to achieve this. This is major achievement for Upsolar and reflects the quality of its products.

The testing, done by Photon laboratory on behalf of Öko-Test, focused on the actual power output when compared to the data sheet, tolerances, module efficiency, cell quality, as well as performing tests for micro cracks. Upsolar’s product was rated “very good” (test performed on UP-M185M).

The cornerstone of Upsolar’s success has been the rigorous quality-control management system we have developed and its employees’ implementation of these online QC Management standards at all its partners’ manufacturing platforms in collaboration with the third party QC management provider, Bureau Veritas (BV). BV also helps Upsolar to continually improve upon these processes while at the same time conducting audits of all Upsolar products prior to their shipment.

Using top-quality module components from qualified international manufacturers ensures the delivery of a consistently high quality product. All potential components are strictly tested in our in-house state of the art testing center and selected according to their performance and ability to withstand a range of different climatic conditions including high wind and snow loads. End products are also tested in our laboratory in order to achieve a longer lifetime and product safety.

“We are proud of the quality and efficiency of our products and happy to prove that our quality controls and strict component selection were not vain. They enable us to deliver safe solar”, says Mr. Jiang, CEO and founder of Upsolar Co., ltd.
