Antaisolar Secures French ETN Certification, Empowering France's Green Energy Future with Compliant Solutions
December 09, 2025
Currently, the French market for photovoltaic mounting systems is predominantly led by European manufacturers. Although Chinese companies possess advantages in technology and cost, the lack of ETN certification has long hindered their entry into the French rooftop solar market. To overcome this hurdle, Antaisolar has consistently dedicated efforts to product quality enhancement and technological breakthroughs, achieving a significant milestone—we are delighted to announce that Antaisolar has successfully obtained the crucial French ETN (Etude de Technique Nouvelle) certification. This accomplishment not only serves as authoritative recognition of our product quality and technical capabilities but also marks a critical step in our strategic expansion across Europe and our deepened commitment to the renewable energy market in France.
What is the France ETN Certification for Mounting Systems?
ETN (Etude de Technique Nouvelle) — the New Technical Study Report — is a technical assessment report issued by French control offices and the Scientific and Technical Center for Building regarding the compatibility of mounting systems with photovoltaic modules. It is a unique certification process in France specifically for PV mounting systems, which examines key aspects such as waterproofing, mechanical resistance, wind load resistance, pressure tolerance, fire risks, and feasibility across different geographical regions.
The French ETN certification for mounting systems is granted to manufacturers by an authorized certification body after testing and evaluating the mounting system and its compatible PV modules. Manufacturers who obtain ETN certification can collaborate with various PV module producers to demonstrate the compatibility between the modules and the mounting system. Therefore, ETN certification is essential for mounting system manufacturers seeking to enter the French rooftop and carport PV project markets.
