High-efficiency cadmium telluride solar panels manufactured in Ohio's Glass City
Toledo Solar stands as Ohio's premier solar panel manufacturer, leveraging the Glass City's century-old tradition of precision manufacturing to produce cutting-edge cadmium telluride (CdTe) photovoltaic technology. Located in the heart of America's industrial corridor, our state-of-the-art facility combines advanced automation with Ohio's skilled workforce to deliver reliable, cost-effective solar solutions for residential and commercial applications.
Our manufacturing process utilizes cadmium telluride PV technology, the only thin film technology with lower costs than conventional solar cells made of crystalline silicon, making Toledo solar panels an economically superior choice for large-scale installations. With the smallest carbon footprint, lowest water use and shortest energy payback time of less than a year, our panels represent the most environmentally responsible solar technology available today.
🏭 Manufacturing Excellence
Glass City heritage meets modern innovation. Advanced automation ensures consistent quality. Ohio-based production eliminates supply chain risks while supporting local economy.
⚡ Technology Innovation
CdTe technology features a direct bandgap of approximately 1.45 eV, nearly ideal for solar energy conversion, allowing panels to absorb sunlight more efficiently than silicon. Superior performance in high-temperature environments with temperature coefficient ranging from -0.20%/°C to -0.30%/°C.
💰 Cost Advantage
Manufacturing costs 70% lower than crystalline panels at $0.46/Watt. Reduced installation complexity and faster project deployment minimize total system costs.
🌡️ Climate Resilience
Superior performance in high-temperature environments with lower temperature coefficient compared to silicon panels, experiencing less efficiency loss as temperatures rise. Ideal for Ohio's variable climate conditions.

Toledo solar panel installation Ohio residents benefit from substantial federal and state incentives. The federal solar Investment Tax Credit provides 30% of system costs through 2032, while Ohio's net metering policies allow homeowners to sell excess energy back to the grid at retail rates.
Our Toledo solar energy systems residential installations typically achieve 15-20 year payback periods, with many customers seeing immediate monthly savings. The combination of Ohio solar panels federal tax credit benefits and reduced electricity bills creates compelling financial returns for property owners.
"Our 50kW Toledo solar installation has exceeded performance expectations by 12% in the first year. The panels maintain efficiency even during Ohio's hottest summer days, outperforming our previous silicon array."
— Jennifer M., Manufacturing Plant Manager, Dayton
"Toledo Solar's local manufacturing gave us confidence in supply reliability. Installation was seamless, and their technical support team understands Ohio's unique climate challenges."
— Robert K., Commercial Property Developer, Columbus
CdTe solar cells represent 21% of the U.S. market and 4% of the global market in 2022, with deployment increasing from megawatt to gigawatt scale as modules have more than doubled in efficiency over the past 15 years.
CdTe is a II-VI metal chalcogenide with direct band gap of ~1.45 eV and very high optical absorption, making it an ideal material for PV applications. This technology requires only 2 μm thick material due to its advantage over light absorption, reducing manufacturing costs and material usage.
Yes. The cadmium within CdTe panels is encapsulated within the semiconductor material, reducing the risk of cadmium exposure during regular use. During a module's lifespan it will not release any particles or vapors if used as intended.
Exceptionally well. CdTe panels are particularly suitable for hot climates and can maintain more stable energy output compared to silicon alternatives in regions with extreme temperatures.
We partner with leading solar financing companies offering 0% down payment options, solar loans with competitive rates, and Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) that require no upfront investment.
Yes. Our certified installer network covers all of Ohio, providing complete turnkey solutions from system design through commissioning and ongoing maintenance support.
