Manufacturer-document records linked to this model: 1. Those records do not by themselves establish domestic content or PFE status.
A U.S. factory, a BABA attestation, and an FTC Made in USA claim are not an IRS domestic-content determination. Ownership, component origin, and project location are not established by the catalog record.
This record does not say the product qualifies for section 48E.
What the evidence says
No U.S. contribution on the evidence Does Not Contribute
Verified evidence and applicable rules establish that this equipment does not add to the domestic-content calculation used here. Foreign-made equipment does not automatically disqualify a project.
Where it was made
Verified foreign manufacture. A manufacturer source names manufacture outside the United States for this identifier. That does not automatically disqualify a project.
IRS domestic-content contribution
Does Not Contribute. This is not a tax credit by itself.
BABA
BABA not verified. No DOE-hosted attestation in the Sunrise archive names this product.
PFE
PFE not established. Ownership, control, and material-assistance facts were not in the catalog. A country of manufacture is not a prohibited-foreign-entity finding.
U.S.-made, BABA, and IRS contribution are independent. This product does not independently guarantee a domestic-content bonus.
Technical documentation
Archived file csi_hiku_cs3n_ms.pdf prints manufacture in china.
IRS component treatment: PV module. Steel or iron versus manufactured product: MANUFACTURED_PRODUCT.
Sources checked: Sunrise catalog identity (manufacturer, model, SKU, category); DOE-hosted BABA attestation archive (named-product match only); IRS Notice 2025-08 listed manufactured-product / steel-iron mapping by category; Stored facilities table (U.S. factory presence is not SKU origin); Stored manufacturer headquarters country (not treated as SKU origin); Manufacturer-document evidence rows linked to this model (1); Official catalog-part evidence table: no row linked to this SKU; Archived manufacturer files scanned for origin phrases (293 files; linked files only applied to this SKU); No manufacturer technical-library URL is on file for this name; Sunrise archive, DOE BABA files, and linked documents were still checked.
Still needed: Project-level mix of other domestic manufactured products still required for a project calculation
Why no stronger classification: A linked manufacturer document states foreign manufacture of this equipment. Under the elective safe harbor, an unverified-domestic manufactured product does not add to the domestic assigned percentage. It does not automatically disqualify the project.

Power Hopper Sunrise is research support, not tax advice. A product badge is not a project tax credit.
