Catalogue against catalogue
An average over a catalogue describes the range a manufacturer publishes, not the module you would buy. A brand with two flagship panels and eighty older ones averages worse than one that has retired its back catalogue.

Written summary
AEET Energy Group GmbH is a German photovoltaic wholesale partner and full-service installer headquartered in Bad Gandersheim, Germany. The company does not manufacture solar panels itself; it acts as a procurement and distribution hub, reselling modules from third-party panel makers alongside planning, installation, and maintenance services for the German and Central European market. AEET holds TÜV Rheinland certifications and maintains a network of over 500 certified specialist partners across Germany. SolaX Power Network Technology, headquartered in Hangzhou, China, was founded in 2012 and has grown into a globally recognized brand listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, with reported annual inverter production capacity of around 6 GW, more than 2,800 employees, and commercial operations across over 80 countries. In terms of international institutional footprint and bankable scale, SolaX carries the stronger global profile.
Because AEET is a distributor and integrator rather than a manufacturer, its effective "product catalog" reflects whichever third-party panel brands it stocks at a given time, bundled with compatible inverters and mounting hardware. SolaX, by contrast, is best known for its X1 and X3 hybrid inverter series, residential and commercial battery storage, and EV-charging equipment - the company does not produce photovoltaic modules. A buyer choosing SolaX would pair its inverters and batteries with panels sourced separately. AEET's proposition is localized, one-stop procurement and installation in Germany; SolaX's proposition is a well-engineered inverter and storage ecosystem competitive with brands like Fronius or Growatt.
For a typical buyer in 2025, these two brands are not interchangeable alternatives - they occupy different positions in the solar supply chain. A German homeowner or commercial customer seeking turnkey installation support would engage AEET as a regional integration partner. A system designer selecting inverter and storage hardware for any market would evaluate SolaX on its own merits. In practice, a system built with SolaX inverters and AEET as the procurement and installation partner would be entirely coherent.
