I'm seeing ~ $2.60/watt from a major Chinese manufacturer for a modest volume purchase.
What are you all seeing as far as $/watt? marco Joel, Since late last year we've been stocking the Yingli 175w single-crystal modules. They seem dependable, haven't heard of any problems with them. Earlier in the year they were a low-cost choice for very cost-sensitive projects, but they were a 1st choice for very, very few dealers. Lately, with all PV prices tumbling, they've been even less attractive. I think the immediate future for Chinese modules will be developing country projects, and very large projects where price points matter more than a dependable track record or possible warranty service in a decade or two.
