Qcells retains No.1 market share spot in U.S. residential and commercial PV module segments

Latest U.S. PV Leaderboard report by Wood Mackenzie solidifies Qcells as a sustained market leader

Qcells today announced that it has retained its top market share in the U.S. residential and commercial solar module markets, underscoring the Company's consistent leadership in the industry.

According to the Q1 2022 U.S. PV Leaderboard report by leading energy research and consultancy firm Wood Mackenzie, Qcells obtained 24.1 percent market share in the U.S. residential market for FY 2021, marking 14 consecutive quarters of its No.1 position. The Leaderboard report also ranks Qcells as the U.S. commercial market leader with 20.6 percent market share, a 2 percent increase from FY 2020. Qcells has held the No.1 position in the commercial segment for the last three fiscal years.

Qcells' long-haul commitment to the U.S. market
Alongside its leading market performance, Qcells has achieved milestones solidifying its longstanding commitment to the U.S. market. With the inauguration of its Dalton, Georgia manufacturing facility, the largest module production plant in America, Qcells provides up to 1.7GW of domestically assembled modules annually to the U.S. solar market. Qcells' commitment to the U.S. also extends to its module distribution and fulfillment as well as its growing integrated energy solutions for the residential, commercial and utility solar sectors.

Most recently, Qcells' parent company, Hanwha Solutions, announced plans to launch a multi-billion-dollar expansion to secure capabilities across the full solar value chain including domestically sourced raw material such as low-carbon polysilicon. This initiative, which would benefit significantly from the passing of the Solar Energy Manufacturing for America Act (SEMA) and smart trade policy, will secure Qcells with full control of its solar supply chain while creating thousands of well-paying jobs in the U.S.

Justin Lee, CEO of Qcells, said: "Qcells is proud to retain the No.1 market share position in the U.S. residential and commercial PV module sectors. Our consistent market leadership in these two segments is made possible by the support and loyalty of our valued customers. Qcells will keep reaching to greater heights and strive to continue being the dependable choice for the U.S. market."
