Solar panel longevity is a topic we answer questions about frequently. Given the financial investment involved with installing solar panels for your home, it’s understandable you’d want to know how long that investment will hold up! Fortunately, our team has a great answer to this question. 

Solar panels are built to last. Plus, with the panels’ warranty, you’ll enjoy a high-quality, renewable energy source for decades to come without worry should your panels require repair or replacement. Let’s discuss more on how long you can expect your solar panels to hold up in South Carolina, as well as how a warranty can provide a good buffer just in case. 

How Long Can You Expect Solar Panels to Last?

Solar panels are made from materials engineered to last for decades. That being said, it’s likely you will be able to get the most from your solar panels in the first 25-30 years. The panels Pink Energy installs can be expected to still produce at a minimum of 85 percent of their original capacity after 25 years.1 In other words, you’ll be able to generate plenty of renewable energy for your home in the decades to come! 

The panels should hold up well to the elements thanks to their durability, and with the powerful monocrystalline structure of Pink Energy’s American-made panels, you’ll be able to produce solar electricity efficiently. 

Understanding Your Solar Warranty

Solar panels are made tough, but even the unexpected can occur. To address this, there are two different parts of a solar panel warranty: equipment and performance. From here on out, we’ll outline the warranties on the top-tier solar panels we install. 

The solar panels we install come with a minimum 25-year linear power performance warranty as well as a 25-year product workmanship guarantee.1 What do these mean?
