RETC's PVMI evaluates modules over a 12-month period using advanced, beyond-certification testing protocols.

"Earning this recognition year after year reflects our relentless focus on quality," said Nigel Cockroft, General Manager of JinkoSolar (U.S.) Inc. "Along with strong performances in other key bankability indices—#1 among 40 manufacturers in the Wood Mackenzie Global Solar Module Manufacturers list, AAA-rated by PV Tech's ModuleTech Bankability Report, and the only manufacturer rated bankable by 100% of survey participants in the BNEF PV Module Bankability Survey—this achievement underscores why customers continue to place their trust in JinkoSolar."

"To be recognized as an 'Overall Highest Achiever' in the PV Module Index Report, manufacturers must complete RETC's rigorous bankability assessment program and excel across multiple test sequences and disciplines. JinkoSolar's consistent year-over-year results demonstrate a best-in-class commitment to reliability, performance, and quality."
