A Legacy of Innovation
Successfully delivering a solar power plant is complicated. We know, because we’ve spent a lot of time designing, developing, constructing and operating some of the largest solar power plant installations around the world when we were part of SunPower Corporation.
Today, following our spin-off from SunPower in 2020, we’re channeling all the knowledge from that past into innovative solar panels—panels that exceed the expectations of the EPCs and developers delivering today’s large-scale solar power plants. Our shared experience and understanding translates to better performing, highly reliable technology you can put your trust in.
Leading Energy Providers Choose Maxeon
Over the course of our 35+ years in solar, our panels have been installed in more than 5 GW of solar power plants across 6 continents, enabling insightful relationships with some of the world’s most sophisticated utilities, developers and EPCs.
Nearly 700 megawatts of our high efficiency bifacial Performance 5 UPP solar panels will power the Gemini solar plus storage power plant project located near Las Vegas, Nevada, United States. The project is being built and will be owned and operated by Primergy Solar and, upon completion, it will be one of the largest operational solar power system in the U.S.

Panel Choice Matters
Cell and Panel Manufacturing
We know it takes a lot of time and resources to bring a solar power plant project to life.
You need a technology partner that not only understands the risk you’re taking, but how their products impact every stage of your project.
Project Development
High power, high performance Maxeon Performance panels optimize project layout to provide more power in less space.
And our use of third-party PAN files ensures more accurate and predictive modelling for your project.
Project Finance
Project financiers mitigate risk by backing solar projects that utilize technology with a proven track record.
In addition, Maxeon Solar Technologies also has the financial backing of Total S.A., the world’s 4th largest public energy company.* Source: Forbes, The World's Largest Oil & Gas Companies 2020. Forbes Global 2000.
Engineering, Procurement and Construction
EPC firms want technology that is reliable, easy to install and keeps solar power plant construction costs down; while project owners demand technology they can trust to maximize their ROI.
Both can achieve peace of mind with Maxeon Performance panel technology.
Operations & Maintenance
What good is technology that constantly breaks down and needs attention?
Maxeon Performance panels offer proven reliability to last in the field well beyond their warranty.

A Global Footprint
We’ve designed, developed, constructed, operated and supplied more than 5 GW of panel technology to some of the largest solar power plants around the world.
Experience Matters
Solar Star
At 747 MW, the largest solar power plant in the USA was developed, designed and built for BHE Solar, a subsidiary of BHE Renewables, in 2015.
Limondale
Commissioned by Belectric in 2020 for innogy, Australia’s largest solar power plant in Balranald, New South Wales features 872,000 Maxeon Performance panels (349 MW).
Hong Phong 4
Constructed by HaDo Group in 2019, this 48 MW project sits on the coast of south-central Vietnam and features 120,000 Maxeon Performance panels in Vietnam’s first solar power plant to utilize tracker technology.
