With Sharp ailing as well, that leaves Mitsubishi and Kyocera and the
remaining Japanese modcos left to duke it out.

The news tonight commented that Panasonic/Sanyo has been downrated to "junk
status."

>From the sounds of it, Solar World has a new ACPV module to add to its line
of products. My perspective is the 'strength' of  a new Enphase product is
more an untried risk than the established SW modules.

Just a hunch though..

Enphase <http://www.enphase.com/>  Energy says that building products
provider CertainTeed has chosen Enphase as its exclusive inverter partner
for the new Solstice AC solar roof product. 
The Solstice system includes an Enphase M215 microinverter mounted directly
to a SolarWorld 250 W photovoltaic module and monitored by Enphase's
Enlighten software. The system is expected to be available this month and
will be available with CertainTeed's system and installation warranty, the
companies note.

Hello Wrenches,

How strong a company is Solar World?  I've been hearing that their balance
sheet might not be the best.  If they go under, do we loose the warranty?  

Is there a strong American made module?  What module from anywhere can be
trusted to be around for the 25 year warranty period?

Thanks in advance,

Drake
