Solar Power World is doing the same, and we\u2019d like to celebrate some of the best products on the market and the best people promoting our industry.<\/p>\n<p>Here we unveil the winners of our inaugural Top Products competition, as judged by industry professionals and peers. Eighty products were submitted for judging, and we awarded Best-in-Show distinctions to products in both the large-scale and residential markets. We also recognize Honorable Mentions in popular categories like inverters, mounting and panels. We think these Top Product awards hold a lot of weight, as installers and developers were the ones to pick them. Only the highestperforming and most beneficial products for installation were chosen as winners, and we\u2019re proud to share them with you.<\/p>\n<p>Solar Power World also celebrates a group of people doing great things in policy, product development and market exposure in a new section we\u2019re calling Rising Stars. These leaders and thinkers are paving the way for advancement in all areas of solar, storage and clean energy, and we\u2019ll be following their achievements, of which we know there will be many.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a lot of good to reflect on this year. Congratulations to the 2024 Top Products distinction recipients and this year\u2019s class of Rising Stars!<\/p>\n<p>Kelly Pickerel<br \/>\nEditor in Chief<br \/>\nkpickerel@wtwhmedia.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A time to reflect MANY PEOPLE SPEND December reflecting on their accomplishments of the last year before making new goals for the next.
