Maxeon, which sells in Australia under the SunPower Maxeon brand, said a third-party study to assess the energy pay-back time (EPBT) for its Maxeon 3 panels had confirmed the energy produced over the technology’s lifetime far exceeds the energy required in its production. The EPBT assessed the cumulative energy demand (CED) over all the life cycle stages of the Maxeon 3 panels and considered local grid efficiencies for different global locations, including Australia.
