We also ensure the products are delivered to the client’s requested destination, and we can deliver to both warehouses or job sites. Our equipment clears customs five to seven days before hitting the port, so we can move the modules out of the port fast and without incurring extra charges.
- We offer both EXW and DDP logistics options.
- We offer port and drayage services.

COMMERCIAL SOLAR LOANS
Where Do You Go For Solar Panel Financing?
Unicorn Solar works with several financial institutions to help finance our customers’ commercial, utility, and residential projects. We have worked with several financial institutions to present our customer’s projects to get funding. We have learned that our customers often require capital to grow their business, so Unicorn decided to find a few experienced finance teams with whom we can help provide growth opportunities. We hope the following information increases your specific value propositions:
Developers/EPCs receive 100% of the loan at NTP. This ensures EPCs are paid and don’t have to wait on benchmark payments. Loans are aligned with the PPA term length. Our lenders can lend against the value of the project’s valuation, not the company owning or building it. This is why some lenders lend 100% upfront. It is a one-time loan, paid at closing.
When COD is reached, the construction loan is converted to a permanent loan without the extra paperwork required. Paperwork is completed at the loan’s origination. Most importantly, we can provide “tax equity” and the whole capital stack if requested. The tax equity is applied towards the loan repayment; thus, the project and equity are enhanced by 35% at COD. This gives the owner equity, higher bonding capacity, and increased portfolio valuation.
We help Developers/EPCs to stay in their projects instead of selling them before NTP, which means their returns can be 4X over their investments. Now, we can avoid selling off to aggregators early in development. Once one loan is developed, the rest will be automated, cutting time off in the application process. Then, submit and approve, and funds are transferred.

Solar Risk Management in Auditing and Testing
When you purchase equipment, do you have audit reports from the supplier?
Risk management identifies, assesses, and controls an organization’s capital and earnings threats. Within the solar industry, the areas of high risk are equipment purchases, construction processes, plans, project investing, and development.
Risk management allows organizations to prepare for the unexpected by having an experienced employee, agent, or consultant go through the events that would upset a successful result. Our boots on the ground in Asia for auditing each production requirement gives security where the production schedule is based on expectation and when the flash reports are completed, and modules are being packed for delivery to the port of origin.
With an expert team in Asia and the US, we navigate the complexities of equipment procurement, addressing factors like transportation, customs, and market requirements. Unicorn Solar goes beyond traditional sourcing, offering cost-effective solutions for EPCs and installers who often face additional fees through distributors. The fees charged by these companies have a 5 to 10-cent delta above Unicorn’s prices. Our competitive advantage lies in providing diverse options while ensuring cost-effectiveness, saving our clients from unnecessary expenditures.
Our integrated services seamlessly cover audits, eliminating extra expenses. We are your dedicated partner, ensuring the best pricing and quality audited panels. Utilizing cutting-edge testing systems, we guarantee optimal data quality and compliance.

Gestión de Riesgos Solares en Auditoría y Pruebas
Al comprar un equipo, ¿tiene informes de auditoría del proveedor?
La gestión de riesgos identifica, evalúa y controla las amenazas al capital y las ganancias de una organización. En la industria solar, las áreas de alto riesgo son las compras de equipos, los procesos de construcción, los planes, la inversión en proyectos y el desarrollo.
La gestión de riesgos permite a las organizaciones prepararse para lo inesperado al contar con un empleado, agente o consultor experimentado que revise los eventos que podrían afectar un resultado exitoso. Nuestro equipo realiza auditorías en el terreno Asiatico para garantizar cada proceso de producción, brindando seguridad. Además, cuando se completan los informes de testeo (flash reports) y los módulos se empacan para su entrega al puerto de origen, podemos ofrecer total confianza.
Nuestra ventaja competitiva radica en ofrecer opciones diversas, mientras garantizamos rentabilidad, lo que permite a nuestros clientes evitar gastos innecesarios.
Nuestros servicios integrados cubren de manera completa las auditorías, eliminando gastos adicionales. Somos su socio dedicado, asegurando los mejores precios y paneles auditados con la más alta calidad. Utilizando sistemas de pruebas avanzados, garantizamos datos óptimos y cumplimiento.
