[RE-wrenches] Picking a Quality Chinese PV Module

[Jamie Johnson]

Nick,

We have been installing Trina modules on projects in FL for the past year and I am pleased with their performance and quality.  They also have one of the best balance sheets in the business.

It is unavoidable these days but I try -and I feel it's the correct thing to do- to buy things with an eye toward was is good (or at least not harmful) to my country and, if possible, the planet. In any event, experimenting on my clients with a new product from a Chinese manufacturer is something I will not do.
