Canadian Solar Panel Deals for 2017

This year in solar energy, Canadian Solar has continued to manufacture and release a series of PV modules at higher wattages, better efficiencies, and lower costs than any other year before. These are the same brand of polycrystalline and monocrystalline modules used in various size solar applications around the globe, including many systems here in the United States.

The trending release of 72-cell solar panels of 300 watts or more is also continuing to scale down area sizes needed for system space, whether a roof-mount or ground mount installation. This translates to same amount of roof space 2-4 years ago would be able to accompany less total kW usage as it does now, and with the price per watt decreasing, customers may be looking at more photovoltaics for the same price or less in total system cost.

Take the CS6U-345M series module for example –

*Canadian Solar CS6U-345M Solar Panel

These 345 watts, 72-cell monocrystalline solar panels boast a cell efficiency of 17.74%. Their total dimensions are 77.20 x 39.10 x 1.57 inches, weighs 49.4 lbs. They are international tested and certified, and come with Canadian Solar’s great 25-year warranty. This module is currently being sold at $0.68 cents per watt, and less with bulk purchases.

Or there is the CS6K-275M series module –

These 275 watts, 60-cell monocrystalline solar panels have a cell efficiency of 16.80%. Total dimensions are 65.00 x 39.10 x 1.57 inches, weighing 40.10 lbs. Tested, certified, and comes with the same 25-year warranty as other modules. This module is currently being sold at $0.73 cents per watt, and higher discounts on bulk purchases.

Finally, the CS6P-265P DC (SmartDC) series module comes with a SolarEdge optimizer pre-installed on the back of the module –

These 265 watts, 60-cell polycrystalline solar panels have a cell efficiency of 16.47%. The total dimensions are 64.50 x 38.70 x 1.57 inches, weighing 42.10 lbs. As always, they come tested and certified with Canadian Solar’s 25-year warranty. This module we carry for $1.07 cents per watt, and gains the added value of having an optimizer ready for system installation to concurrent inverters. Discounts available on bulk orders.

When you pair these modules and the rest of your solar energy system components with local, state, and federal incentives, the overall price of your PV array decreases further – by an average of 30% and sometimes more. This makes going solar in 2017 an attractive option to saving on long-term electric costs and contributing to an environmentally friendly energy solution.

Canadian Solar remains one of our top picks as a module producer we supply that is recommending as a value based company. Their modules are always reliable, built with quality, and compete with other manufacturers solar panels in total ROI.

When you choose to go solar, we think you should take Canadian Solar panels into consideration for your next solar energy system.
