What we like about SunPower Maxeon

- 22.7% panel efficiency (Maxeon 3) using back-contact cell technology
- Maximum annual degradation rated at 0.25%, the lowest we track
Where SunPower Maxeon could be better
- Premium price, well above mainstream Trina/JA Solar/Jinko pricing
- 2024-25 corporate restructuring (Maxeon exiting non-US markets to TCL) makes it worth confirming local stock and support with your installer
- The 40-year warranty term requires installation by a registered Maxeon Partner; unregistered installs default to 25 years
Who SunPower Maxeon suits
