Funny you should mention them, we're just in the process of launching an
installation partnership with Romag after making just that assessment earlier in January, plus having inquiries about BIPV and solar slates, which they also make.
We arranged a factory visit a couple of weeks back, and I'm pretty impressed to find that they'd spent ÂŁ2 million late last year on an electroluminescense machine to dramatically improve their quality control, as well as increased flash testing and automation of the soldering process.
They've also dramatically improved the quality of their mono panels using the new higher performance N-type cells similar to those used in the Yingli Panda, and Sunpower ranges (though not as efficient as sunpower), for better low light and high temperature performance, plus all black for the same prices as white back sheets, and pricing that's really very competitive. IMO they're now up there quality wise with the best in the world for the 250Wp panels, when I really didn't rate their panels when I looked at them a couple of years back.
Only thing is that they say they're being a bit picky about who they work with as they really want to be working with companies who're going to be able to offer their entire product range of BIPV, solar slates, in roof mounting etc as well as the standard panels, as they view this as insulating them a bit from the massive demand swings of the more standard panel market, which actually was what we initially approached them about.
I understand that Romag are mainly selling direct to installers, though from Sibert's post above, I'm wondering if they're now stocking them?
