- How long has SOLARWATT been established?
Founded in 1993 in Dresden, Germany, SOLARWATT has over 30 years of experience as a pioneer in the European solar industry. They are widely recognized as an innovator and market leader, having launched the very first glass-glass solar module back in 1998. Additionally, the company is backed by majority shareholder Stefan Quandt (also a major shareholder of BMW).
- How durable are SOLARWATT solar panels?
SOLARWATT glass-glass modules are exceptionally robust. By replacing the traditional plastic backsheet with a second layer of glass, they are highly resistant to micro-cracks, weather extremes, fire, and moisture intrusion, ensuring high yields and longevity over decades.
- Are SOLARWATT glass-glass panels safe against fire?
Yes. SOLARWATT glass-glass modules feature a double-glass construction instead of a traditional plastic backsheet, giving them a Class A fire rating (the highest possible classification for fire resistance).
- What makes SOLARWATT’s 30-year warranty different from standard manufacturer warranties?
Unlike many panel manufacturer warranties that only cover product defects, SOLARWATT’s 30-year all-inclusive warranty covers parts, labor, and even logistics or scaffolding costs. If something goes wrong, you aren’t left paying out-of-pocket or caught between the installer and the manufacturer.
