On August 23, Bloomberg New Energy Finance (BNEF) released its ‘3Q 2024 PV Module Maker Tier 1 List.’ Huasun Energy, recognized for its high-efficiency and reliable heterojunction (HJT) photovoltaic (PV) products, strong brand presence, and robust financial foundation, has once again secured its place on the prestigious BNEF Tier 1 list. This continued inclusion underscores Huasun’s leadership and exceptional performance in the global solar market.
What is BNEF PV Module Maker Tier 1 List?
The BNEF Tier 1 ranking is a highly influential and authoritative evaluation system within the global PV industry. It assesses PV module manufacturers based on several critical factors, including product quality, eligibility for government project bids, and capability to secure bank financing.
The rigorous and transparent selection process of the Tier 1 list has earned it broad recognition and established it as a key benchmark for evaluating the comprehensive strength of PV module producers. It also serves as a vital reference for attracting investment in global solar projects. Huasun’s consistent inclusion on this list highlights its outstanding performance in technological innovation, product quality, and brand influence, further emphasizing its contribution to the sustainable development of the global solar industry.
What are the Specific Requirements of the BNEF Tier 1 List with Tougher Standards?
To qualify for the BNEF Tier 1 list, module manufacturers must meet stringent criteria. They are required to supply their own-branded and self-manufactured products for at least six distinct projects that have received non-recourse financing from six different non-development banks within the past two years. These deals must be over 5MW (a change in 1Q 2024 from 1.5MW in previous quarters) and tracked by BNEF’s database, ie the project location, capacity, developer, bank and module maker must be in the public domain. This rigorous standard ensures that only manufacturers with proven reliability and significant financial backing are included on the Tier 1 list.
