Market context
Global evidencechange in the site menu
Global benchmark. This scorecard is benchmarked globally. A global score does not imply local availability, certification, warranty coverage, or installer compatibility.
Benchmark anchor. The score is anchored to the highest published rating in this exact published series. Scored model: Centaur 2LT 540 · checked 2026-08-22. Evidence.
Sources & references · checked 2026-09-20
Strong evidence coverage
16 of 16 scored criteria link directly to a published source.
Values marked estimated, derived, or not found remain visible on the audit sheet and do not carry the same evidential weight as a linked source. Coverage measures direct links, not an independent guarantee that a claim is correct.
Record revision. Oxford PV Centaur 2LT June 2026 datasheet and current Gen2 product page, rechecked 2026-09-20. Encapsulation joined from 2 mm front glass, 2 mm rear glass, and an anodised aluminium frame.

AU Support Note
- Before
- Centaur 2LT is a published saleable Gen2 product, but exact Australian availability, certification and local warranty support remain unproven.
- After
- Centaur 2LT remains a published Gen2 product. Oxford PV expects volume-manufactured tandem modules in 2027 and reports customer pilots, but exact Australian availability, certification and local warranty support remain unproven.
