Case study — Solar panels for Curaçao

The exact question we hear from Willemstad: “Where do I order solar panels from — China or the USA?” Here's what the math says for a 10 kW system (20 × 550W panels).

🇨🇳

China (Shenzhen → Willemstad)

~$2,000 landed
  • Panels: $960 (FOB ~$0.087/W)
  • Sea LCL: ~$435 (~50 days)
  • Duty + BBO + local: ~$620

🏆 Cheapest by far — ~50% saving

🇺🇸

USA (domestic panels)

~$4,000 landed
  • Panels: ~$2,880 ($0.26–0.32/W)
  • Sea hop from Miami: ~$330 (4–7 days)
  • Duty + BBO + local: ~$780

⚡ Wins on speed + warranty, loses on price

The insight: US import tariffs (up to 125% on Chinese panels) only apply to goods imported into the USA — a Curaçao buyer doesn't pay them. So the US "domestic premium" buys speed and certification, not savings. Want the same analysis for your product? Run it above or ask us.
