BNEF's stringent criteria for evaluating PV module suppliers include comprehensive assessments of corporate strength, project execution capabilities, and bank financial backing. Since 2024, the criteria have become even stricter, requiring companies to deliver more than 5MW of self-branded, internally produced modules for six different solar projects within two years, with these projects receiving non-recourse financing from six different commercial banks. The transparency and rigor of BNEF's Tier 1 selection process make this list an essential resource for stakeholders in the new energy industry when making business decisions.
