For all of you out there who love the details behind data, we included the fine print on these statistics below. And while collecting and reporting accurate solar industry statistics can be challenging, we commend CSI for their efforts in this area for North America's largest solar market. As an example, SunPower re-brands inverters, which can skew some of CSI's numbers in tracking this data. Regardless, we are still humbled and appreciative of our accomplishments, and thank all of our customers for their continued support.

*Based on CSI data 11/1/12 counting sales 10/25/12 through 10/31/12 - sales counted when "First Reservation Request Review Date" is during the time period. NOTE "# Sales" is the number of new reservations. "Avg $/CEC" is the average value of the average value of each contract value divided by the CEC-AC rating of each system in watts.
