Which brands appear on this page?
Brands with at least one product published in the catalogue on the review date are shown. The range evolves and must be confirmed on the product page or while preparing the quotation.
Professional catalogue by manufacturer
Solar energy brands for professionals
PnP organises its catalogue by technology and brand so installers, engineering firms and O&M teams can move from a project requirement to the published product families. Brand alone does not decide the solution: application, architecture, documented compatibility, warranty, communications and support must be reviewed first.

Frequently asked questions
How to compare solar brands using technical criteria
Must all components be from the same brand?
Not necessarily. The decision depends on architecture and documented compatibility between equipment. A shared manufacturer does not guarantee compatibility across ranges or generations.
How should inverter brands be compared?
By application, phases, AC power, DC/AC ratio, MPPTs, string voltage and current, grid code, protection, communications, battery and backup functions.
How should battery brands be compared?
Review AC or DC coupling, voltage, BMS, documented usable capacity, charge and discharge power, scalability, backup, protection, warranty and compatibility.
What changes when choosing panels or mounting?
For modules, assess electrical data, dimensions, technology, coefficients and warranty. For mounting, assess roof, fixation, layout, loads, corrosion and a validated bill of materials.
How are support and warranty checked?
Identify the exact version, retain serial numbers and logs, follow the manufacturer procedure and confirm who provides each support level before closing the quotation.

Professional selector
Choose the technical path for your project
Brand is not the starting point. Select the application and review the architecture before comparing manufacturers or references.
1. What do you need to solve?
2. Architecture and data to validate
Design a new photovoltaic installation
Start with the site, target power, grid and consumption profile; then select the components.
- Grid and phases: voltage, single- or three-phase supply and connection-point requirements.
- PV array: power, strings, MPPT window, current and environmental conditions.
- Architecture: grid-connected, hybrid, backup or provision for future storage.
- Integration: protections, metering, communications and commissioning.
Indicative guidance: it does not confirm compatibility or replace checking technical data sheets, manuals, regulations and actual installation conditions.
Add storage to an existing inverter
First determine whether the solution integrates on the DC side with the manufacturer or through an independent AC-coupled architecture. Do not assume compatibility.
- Exact inverter model, version, firmware and documentation.
- AC or DC coupling point, metering, EMS and actual backup requirement.
- Power, usable energy, consumption profile, cycles and operating objective.
- Protections, selectivity, communications and grid requirements.
Indicative guidance: it does not confirm compatibility or replace checking technical data sheets, manuals, regulations and actual installation conditions.
Expand or replace equipment through revamping
New equipment must not be treated as a direct replacement: recalculate the complete system before choosing a manufacturer or reference.
- Actual DC array inventory, strings, currents, voltages and MPPTs.
- AC-side power and limits, grid, transformer and connection point.
- Protections, regulations, communications, monitoring and control.
- Space, cabling, required works and commissioning strategy.
Indicative guidance: it does not confirm compatibility or replace checking technical data sheets, manuals, regulations and actual installation conditions.
Size commercial and industrial storage or BESS
Separate power from energy, define the expected service and use load data before preparing the architecture.
- Load curve, peak power, daily energy and tariff periods.
- Objective: self-consumption, peak shaving, arbitrage, backup or a prioritised combination.
- kW/kWh ratio, cycles, reserve, degradation and control strategy.
- Grid, PCS, EMS, protections, space, ventilation, safety and regulations.
Indicative guidance: it does not confirm compatibility or replace checking technical data sheets, manuals, regulations and actual installation conditions.
Technical comparison
Compare architectures before comparing brands
Four reference families to structure the analysis. The final choice depends on the exact equipment, site, grid, regulations and operating objective.
Grid-connected PV
- When it fits
- A new installation focused on daytime generation and self-consumption, with no initial storage.
- Reference architecture
- DC PV array → grid inverter → AC board, loads and grid.
- Key validations
- Power, phases, strings, MPPT window, current, metering, export control and protections.
- Main limitation
- By itself it does not shift energy between tariff periods or provide backup.
DC hybrid storage
- When it fits
- A new or redesigned project planned from the outset with a battery and possible backup.
- Reference architecture
- Battery and PV array integrated on the DC bus through a hybrid inverter and manufacturer-defined control.
- Key validations
- Voltage, current, BMS, firmware, capacity, backup, metering, protections and exact accessories.
- Main limitation
- Requires exact documented compatibility between inverter, battery, BMS, firmware and accessories.
AC-coupled storage retrofit
- When it fits
- An existing PV installation where storage is added while retaining the current inverter.
- Reference architecture
- An independent storage system coupled on the AC side and coordinated through metering and control.
- Key validations
- Existing diagram, coupling point, meter, EMS, backup, power, energy and protections.
- Main limitation
- It is not the same as connecting a battery to the existing inverter’s DC port.
AC-coupled BESS/PCS
- When it fits
- A commercial or industrial project defined by its load curve, power, energy and required services.
- Reference architecture
- Battery and PCS form an AC system coordinated by an EMS and integrated with the grid, loads and protections.
- Key validations
- Load curve, kW/kWh, cycles, reserve, transformer, grid, control, space, ventilation and safety.
- Main limitation
- Requires site-specific engineering, protections and regulatory validation.
Indicative comparison with no commercial ranking. It does not confirm compatibility, direct replacement or performance for a specific project.
