CanadianSolar Modules
For the past 20 years, Canadian Solar has consistently been the top choice for customers and investors due to its quality and superior technologies. Their products consistently rank in Tier 1, among the top 5 globally in production, and number 1 in quality and performance/price (according to the IHS Markit Survey). Canadian Solar has been a pioneer in creating new trends, applying various cutting-edge technologies to solar panels, such as Black Silicon, PERC, Half-cut cells, 9 Busbars, Bifacial, and Dual Modules, reducing investment costs, improving electricity output, and increasing the system’s lifespan.
The application of multiple new technologies enables Canadian Solar panels to have a capacity over 26% higher than conventional panels, reducing the impact of shading on the panel surface, lowering LCOE electricity production costs by up to 4.5%, system cost by up to 2.7%, and shortening the payback period for projects.

ENVIRONMENTAL
From 2017 to 2022, CSI achieved reductions in our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, energy intensity, water intensity, and waste intensity of 20%, 25%, 67%, and 45%, respectively. Specifically, on GHG emissions, CSI have made further progress towards climate impact transparency by disclosing certain scope 3 emissions.
CSI updated our 5-year rolling targets, aiming to achieve GHG emission, energy intensity, water intensity, and waste intensity reductions of 28%, 29%, 26% and 23%, respectively, from 2022 levels by 2027.
CSI is on track to achieve the goal of powering global operations with 100% renewable electricity before 2030
