solar and all the common parts that are involved should be made in country. These high shipping
prices are going blow every one’s budget.

It’s actually great from an installer perspective to get transparency like this. However, it’s all about how you pivot to make not only the clients happy, but the systems installed successful with no issues.

Wormser said, “protocol exists,” and that is absolutely true. It’s what makes or breaks companies most of the time in our opinion.

That said, vendor transparency shouldn’t stop at wafers, cells and modules. I realize that forced labor in Asia is a big issue, but there are others as well and for domestic goods production as well as foreign. The same principals of vendor transparency regarding human rights also apply to quality assurances for B.O.S. component manufacturers. As B.O.S. component innovators and manufacturers, we have always taken the high road with certifications of raw material, testing, engineering and ISO 9001 production. We offer lifetime warranties on our goods because we have three decades of proven performance enduring the test of time– the most important certification. If these proofs are not visible on a vendor website, they probably don’t exist. We are proud and happy to publish proof of all sales and technical claims on our website for anyone to see. Most of our competitors– not so much.
