AIKO EUPD Research has recognized the company as a Top Brand PV 2026 in several European markets, including Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Spain, and Eastern Europe. The company has also received the Top Brand PV Europe 2026 distinction, placing it among the leading photovoltaic brands in the European market.
The EUPD Research Top Brand PV recognition is considered one of the most prestigious certifications in the photovoltaic industry due to its methodology, which is based on installer surveys and market analysis. It reflects the industry's assessment of various parameters, such as brand awareness, likelihood of recommendation, and distribution performance. The certification thus provides an independent measure of brand strength and market acceptance.
Furthermore, the Top Brand PV award in Europe and several of its key solar markets reflects the growing adoption of AIKO's ABC (All Back Contact) technology. The company was the first manufacturer to fully commit to N-type BC technology, with investments focused on its large-scale commercialization and the development of solutions to address various manufacturing and reliability challenges. These advancements have helped accelerate the consolidation of BC technology as a high-efficiency solution that is increasingly prevalent in the market.
Energy production, reliability, safety, and long-term investment value are increasingly important factors in the decisions of installers and system owners. This shift in priorities has led to the recognition of AIKO modules in residential, commercial and industrial (C&I), and utility-scale applications.
“Top Brand PV is awarded based on direct experience and feedback from installers operating in each market,” said Daniel Fuchs , Chief Customer Officer of EUPD Research.
“The fact that AIKO has received this recognition in both key national markets and across Europe reflects strong market confidence in its products and brand,” he added.
These awards reinforce AIKO's position in Europe, where demand for high-efficiency solar solutions continues to grow. The company remains committed to innovation in ABC technology to offer greater performance, reliability, and long-term value to its customers, and to contribute to the advancement of the European energy transition towards a more sustainable, low-carbon model.
