Power Rating of PV Modules

The Florida Solar Energy Center has become the first U.S. laboratory accredited for testing and certifying the

power rating of photovoltaic (PV) modules. The accreditation audit was done by PowerMark Corporation, which is the sole U.S. agent for the Photovoltaic Global Approval Program. Once manufacturers have put their products through this certification process, it will be possible to get true apples-to-apples performance comparisons of modules and packaged PV systems from different manufacturers.
