Written summary
Horay Solar is a Chinese photovoltaic manufacturer founded in 2010 and headquartered in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province. It entered the Bloomberg New Energy Finance Tier 1 module list in Q1 2025, confirming bankability with major project lenders, and operates at an annual production capacity of around 2.5 GW. Its products are distributed across Europe, North America, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. A.B. Energy, by contrast, did not surface in any credible industry databases, trade press, or independent review platforms in this research cycle. The company may be a regional or emerging player with limited public documentation, which makes direct comparison difficult. On institutional footprint alone, Horay Solar holds a clear, verifiable advantage.
Horay Solar's confirmed product line centers on N-Type TOPCon modules, a cell architecture now favored for its lower temperature coefficients and higher bifacial gain relative to older PERC technology. The company markets bifacial panels in the 410 W to 665 W range, covering commercial rooftop and utility-scale ground-mount applications. Its publicly documented warranty terms include a maximum 2% first-year degradation and 0.55% annual degradation thereafter, yielding at least 84.8% retained output at 25 years - terms broadly in line with mid-to-upper-tier Chinese manufacturers. For A.B. Energy, no product family details, cell technology, or warranty terms could be located through independent sources, so any characterization of its offering would be speculative.
For a buyer operating in 2025 - whether sourcing for a commercial rooftop or a small utility project - Horay Solar is the more documentable choice: it carries confirmed BNEF bankability, a disclosed manufacturing scale, and independently listed product specifications. A.B. Energy cannot be assessed on equivalent terms without additional primary documentation from the buyer. If A.B. Energy is under consideration, verifying its bankability status and obtaining a third-party test report before committing to a sizable procurement is strongly advisable.
