Top Brand PV

The neutral assessment of a company’s performance is based on comprehensive analyses as well as the application of EUPD Research’s innovative quality models. Based on the results, best-in-class companies may be awarded with the Top Brand Award. The award and accompanying award rights may increase the winner’s credibility and the overall trust level among end consumers and business partners. Additionally, awarded companies may boost their brand recognition and image towards new potential clients.

In terms of implementation, awards can be flexibly used for numerous marketing and communication campaigns enhanced by EUPD Cert’s industry-wide leading international media network. One of our most recognized company awards is the Top Brand PV Award.

  • Process and Added Value

    How successful is a module, inverter and storage manufacturer’s or wholesale company’s brand launch? Every year, EUPD Research conducts an independent brand awareness analysis of different brands within its well-established study, the Global PV InstallerMonitor. As a result of the comprehensive survey among solar installers of global solar markets, the best-rated brands receive a Top Brand PV Award in various categories.

  • Recommended by Installers

    We thoroughly analyze the brand image in a specified market for the Top Brand PV Award, while many other quality assessments, seals or awards primarily focus on technical aspects of solar products only. We directly reach out to the experts – the solar installation companies.

  • What We Measure

    We at EUPD Research have developed a robust valuation model based on our longstanding market research expertise. Aspects of a successful brand leadership of solar companies take center stage. A precise picture is given based on ten different evaluation factors. Since 2010, we present the Top Brand PV Award for various products and business areas: modules, inverters, storage technologies and wholesale.

  • Your Benefits

    Our independent results increase credibility and trust with end consumers and business customers.

    • Strengthening of image in a competitive global market
    • Improved recognition value for potential buyers
    • Flexible integration of award in marketing activities
    • Accompanying award rights and communication support significantly improves awareness in a market
    • Media-effective award presentation and delivery
