About PTC Rating
The Go Solar campaign established an industry standard with the creation of the PTC rating program and has become universally recognized for providing a more real world measurement of solar panel performance. PTC ratings or Photovoltaic Utility Scale Application Testing Conditions were initiated by the California Energy Commission via the California Go Solar program to measure a solar module–s power output in the real world. California solar installers pay close attention to PTC ratings since they can apply for rebates on photovoltaic installations built using modules successfully listed in the eligibility program. A higher PTC rating indicates higher actual on-site solar energy production per watt installed, which leads to faster return on investment. PTC stands for Photovoltaic Utility Scale Application Testing Conditions. The list of all eligible modules can be found here:
