SUZHOU, China — Runergy has been honored with the 2026 “All Quality Matters” Award for Comprehensive PV Module Reliability, presented by TÜV Rheinland at the 2026 “All Quality Matters” Solar & Storage Awards Ceremony in Suzhou, China.
The award recognizes the strong performance of Runergy’s PV modules in a comprehensive range of stringent reliability tests, highlighting their long-term stability and ability to perform reliably across diverse operating environments.
“All Quality Matters” Award – A Rigorous Benchmark for PV Module Reliability
Organized by TÜV Rheinland, a globally recognized independent testing, inspection and certification organization, the “All Quality Matters” program has been established for more than 12 years and has become one of the leading quality-focused evaluation programs in the solar and energy storage industry.
Rather than relying solely on conventional standards-based testing, the program evaluates PV modules through a comprehensive series of enhanced reliability tests. These include accelerated aging, environmental durability, mechanical load, potential-induced degradation (PID), and ultraviolet (UV) aging tests.
The testing is designed to assess how PV modules withstand demanding operating conditions, including high temperatures, high humidity, wind and sand, and other challenging environmental factors. By combining rigorous test protocols with objective test data, the program provides an independent benchmark for evaluating the long-term reliability of PV modules and offers valuable guidance to project investors, EPC contractors and end customers worldwide.
Reliability Demonstrated Across Multiple Test Conditions
Runergy’s PV modules successfully completed the full suite of TÜV Rheinland’s stringent reliability evaluations and delivered strong results across multiple test categories, including thermal cycling, damp heat, mechanical load, degradation resistance and UV resistance.
The modules demonstrated excellent control of power degradation, validating the performance of their materials, encapsulation processes and manufacturing quality control systems.
These results further demonstrate the modules’ suitability for a wide range of applications, from utility-scale solar power plants and commercial and industrial distributed PV systems to projects located in regions with challenging climatic conditions. Their robust reliability helps support stable energy generation and long-term project performance throughout the system lifecycle.
As a leading global manufacturer of PV cells and modules, Runergy is committed to a “Technology First, Quality First” approach. The company has established a dedicated PV research institute and operates a TÜV Rheinland-qualified witness laboratory, while continuing to strengthen its investment in R&D and quality management.
Runergy has implemented a comprehensive, closed-loop quality management system covering every stage of the product lifecycle—from raw material qualification and manufacturing process control to finished-product reliability verification.
The company’s commitment to technological innovation has also resulted in significant breakthroughs in PV cell efficiency. Runergy previously achieved a 26.9% efficiency record for a full-area n-type TOPCon solar cell, representing a major milestone in the industrial-scale efficiency development of TOPCon technology.
Dr. Longzhong Tao, General Manager of Runergy, said:
“Receiving TÜV Rheinland’s ‘All Quality Matters’ Award for Comprehensive PV Module Reliability is a strong recognition of Runergy’s commitment to product quality and an endorsement of our R&D and manufacturing capabilities. Reliability is fundamental to the long-term value of photovoltaic products.
“Looking ahead, Runergy will continue to advance technological innovation and quality improvement, delivering PV products that combine high performance with long-term reliability. We are committed to supporting the high-quality growth of the global clean energy industry and advancing our mission: ‘A Global Partner In Renewable Energy.’”
