S&P Global Unveils 2025 Tier 1 Cleantech Companies List, Chinese Firms Dominate

S&P Global Commodity Insights has unveiled the 2025 Tier 1 Cleantech Companies list, a transparent benchmark for reliability and long-term performance in the clean energy supply chain. The list reflects the global distribution of industrial power, with Chinese firms dominating most categories.

The inaugural list covers 63 renewable energy suppliers across four categories: solar modules, inverters, wind turbines, and battery energy storage systems (BESS). Companies were selected based on their performance across six dimensions, including market presence, financial performance, and sustainability assessment. While the full list is not publicly available, examples include Canadian Solar and Hanwha Qcells for solar modules, and CATL, Tesla, and LG Energy Solution for BESS.

Fourteen solar energy companies, including Trina Solar and JinkoSolar, made the cut. The BESS category showed greater geographic diversity, with companies like CATL, Tesla, and LG Energy Solution listed. Nine wind energy companies, such as Goldwind and Vestas, were recognized. Some firms, like Trina Solar, appeared in more than one category, demonstrating their vertically integrated positions. The inverters category includes companies like Huawei, Sungrow, and Enphase Energy.

The 2025 Tier 1 Cleantech Companies list provides a clear benchmark for quality and resilience in the clean energy supply chain. It highlights the global dominance of Chinese firms in most categories, while also recognizing strong performances from companies in other regions. The list offers transparency and helps stakeholders make informed decisions in the rapidly evolving clean energy market.
