Qcells’ U.S‑assembled, 22.5 % efficient panels cost just $2.67–$3.50 per watt installed and carry a 25‑year warranty plus nine straight Kiwa PVEL “Top Performer” awards—benefits that US Power delivers directly through its official partnership with Qcells.

More than five million American rooftops now harvest sunshine, yet homeowners still face three roadblocks: unpredictable equipment costs, fragmented warranties, and confusing incentive rules. By teaming up with Qcells, US Power removes those headaches—offering a single, U.S‑made hardware stack that slashes payback times and maximizes federal tax perks.

The 3 Big Obstacles for Homeowners

Most solar quotes trip over the same issues:

  1. Fragmented warranties—panels, batteries, inverters all from different brands, with separate contacts and fine print.
  2. Premium pricing—often exceeding $3.60 per watt installed, extending payback well beyond a decade.
  3. Unproven claims—many brands don’t even show up on independent stress‑test charts (e.g., Kiwa PVEL).

By pairing with Qcells, US POWER smooths out these wrinkles—single-brand hardware, streamlined warranties, and reliable performance backed by solid data. Their official partnership ensures consistency in pricing and installation, avoiding the surprises that plague mix‑and‑match systems.

5 Reasons Qcells (and US POWER) Outperform the Rest

How the Numbers Work Out

  • Installed price for a 6 kW Qcells system: approximately $2.90/W → $17,400 before incentives
  • Federal Clean Energy Credit: –30% → –$5,220
  • Net cost: $12,180
  • Annual savings (e.g. in California): ~$1,650
  • Estimated payback: ~7.4 years—substantially quicker than higher-priced competitors
  • Made in the USA: Reliability You Can Trust

    Qcells' American production isn’t marketing fluff—it’s a strategic advantage:

    • Streamlined supply chain = faster installs and locked-in pricing.
    • US manufacturing qualifies you for the Domestic Content bonus.
    • Backed by Hanwha Solutions—a Fortune Global 500 powerhouse with global R&D and financing clout

    • Nine straight years as a “Top Performer” in stress tests
    • Exceptional resilience to heat, hail, and degradation

    That kind of field-tested reliability means better output and fewer worries.

    • Tesla Powerwall 3
    • FranklinWH Home Power
