Hi,

The first option using the JA solar and Fronius inverter is definitely the best out of the three. Fronius is the leading inverter on the market and JA is one of [top 10 solar panel manufacturers](https://www.cleanenergyreviews.info/blog/2017/9/11/best-solar-panels-top-modules-review). Also the 315W mono panels from JA solar will perform better than any cheaper 285-300W poly panels.

Most importantly make sure the company who is doing the install is reputable (preferably local) and does not push you into making a decision.

Cheers,  
Jason

Q Cells is probably a more reputable brand, and I would go for Q Cells in this case though. Hope that helps Marty

Canadian have generally produced more cost effective polycrystalline cells and developed some advanced high efficiency panels based on the half-cut polycrystalline cell design. However, more recently Canadian have shifted to developing more efficient mono-PERC shingled cel…

> Hi all A lot of people on our forum want to know if they are getting a good deal with their solar quotes, because most of us don’t have endless money to spend on a solar system. I would generally recommend considering top quality panels, like LG, and inverters like Fronius or Enphase, because they do often work out to be the best option financially in the long run. However, I’d like to answer the question here about what the best “value” solar system is. If you are on a tight budget, and can’t …
