Hi, I have 2 quotes, one for Sunpower panels by a company whose business is primarily home solar installs (been around 15 years). And one for Q.Cells by a larger company who’s been around 80 years and more diversified. Company stability is worth noting cause I hear tales of solar companies going under voiding warranties.
Option 1: (15 year solar panel only company) Sunpower M Series 425 iq7hs microinverter 3.4 kWh system Price: 10k
Option 2: (80 year energy company) Hanwha Q.Cell Q.Peak DUO 10+ 365 iq8+ microinveter 3.65 kWH system Price: 11k
I know that I’m getting .2 kWH more in option 2 but prices are similar and I heard Sunpower is usually really expensive; should I be concerned? Also heard that Sunpower can be less transparent on production, is this true?
Which would you go with? I know there are some apples to oranges differences here, but would you feel safe going option 1 (less expensive, more efficient panels) knowing that if solar sales slow down company viability can be impacted, or option 2 safer (albeit more expensive, better microinverter)
Does anyone have experience with Sunpower or Hanwha warranties? Are both customer services good?
