Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies | ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization SunPower Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, "SunPower," the “Company,” "we," "us," or "our") is a leading solar technology and energy services provider that delivers complete solar solutions to customers primarily in the United States and Canada through an array of hardware, software, and financing options and "Smart Energy" solutions. Our Smart Energy initiative is designed to add layers of intelligent control to homes, buildings, and grids—all personalized through easy-to-use customer interfaces. We are a leader in the U.S. Distributed Generation (“DG”) storage and energy services market, providing customers control over electricity consumption and resiliency during power outages while providing cost savings to homeowners, businesses, governments, schools, and utilities through multiple offerings. Our sales channels include a strong network of dealers and resellers that operate in both residential and commercial markets. SunPower is a majority-owned subsidiary of Total Solar INTL SAS ("Total," formerly Total Solar International SAS) and Total Gaz Electricité Holdings France SAS (“Total Gaz”), each a subsidiary of Total SE (“Total SE,” formerly Total SA) (see “Note 2. Transactions with Total and Total SE ). On August 26, 2020, we completed the spin-off (the “Spin-Off”) of Maxeon Solar Technologies, Ltd., a Singapore public company limited by shares (“Maxeon Solar”), consisting of certain non-U.S. operations and assets of our former SunPower Technologies business unit. As a result of the Spin-Off, we no longer consolidate Maxeon Solar within our financial results of continuing operations. For all the periods prior to the Spin-Off, the financial results of Maxeon Solar are presented as net earnings from discontinued operations on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Liquidity We believe that our total cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our obligations over the next 12 months from the date of issuance of our financial statements, including repayment of our 0.875% senior convertible debentures due June 1, 2021 (the "0.875% debentures due 2021"), of which an aggregate principal amount of $62.5 million was outstanding as of April 4, 2021. In addition, we have historically been successful in our ability to divest certain investments, including our investment in shares of Enphase Inc., and non-core assets, secure other sources of financing, such as accessing the capital markets, and implement other cost reduction initiatives such as restructuring, to address our liquidity needs. Although we have historically been able to generate liquidity, we cannot predict, with certainty, the outcome of our actions to generate liquidity as planned. Basis of Presentation and Preparation Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("United States" or "U.S.," and such accounting principles, "U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information, and include the accounts of SunPower, all of our subsidiaries and special purpose entities, as appropriate under U.S. GAAP. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial information included herein is unaudited, and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of our management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The January 3, 2021 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from SunPower’s audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 22, 2021, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in SunPower's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021. The operating results for the three months ended April 4, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for fiscal year 2021, or for any other future period. We have a 52-to-53-week fiscal year that ends on the Sunday closest to December 31. Accordingly, every fifth or sixth year will be a 53-week fiscal year. The current fiscal year, fiscal 2021, is a 52-week fiscal year, while fiscal year 2020 was a 53-week fiscal year. The first quarter of fiscal 2021 ended on April 4, 2021, while the first quarter of fiscal 2020 ended on March 29, 2020. Management Estimates The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates in these condensed consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, specifically the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, standalone selling price of performance obligations, and variable consideration; credit losses, including estimating macroeconomic factors affecting historical recovery rate of receivables; inventory and project asset write-downs; long-lived asset impairment, specifically estimates for valuation assumptions including discount rates and future cash flows; fair value of investments, including equity investments for which we apply the fair value option and other financial instruments; valuation of contingencies such as accrued warranty; the incremental borrowing rate used in discounting of lease liabilities; the fair value of indemnities provided to customers and other parties; and income taxes and tax valuation allowances. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Summary of Selected Significant Accounting Policies Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021 for the full list of our significant accounting policies. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which simplifies the accounting for income taxes, eliminates certain exceptions within ASC 740, Income Taxes , and clarifies certain aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. Most amendments within the standard are required to be applied on a prospective basis, while certain amendments must be applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. We adopted the ASU during the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope . The ASU is an update to ASU 2020-04 issued by the FASB in March 2020 and is intended to clarify the scope of ASC 848 to include derivatives that are affected by a change in the interest rate used for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that do not also reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. This guidance is effective immediately upon issuance on January 7, 2021. We adopted the ASU during the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The adoption did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The amendment reduces the number of accounting models used for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock, which results in fewer embedded conversion features separately recognized from the host contracts. ASU 2020-06 is effective no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Early adoption is permitted no earlier than the first quarter of fiscal 2021, and the ASU should be applied retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the provisions of ASU 2020-06 on our financial statements and disclosures. |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Transactions with Total and Total S.A. | TRANSACTIONS WITH TOTAL AND TOTAL SE In June 2011, Total completed a cash tender offer to acquire 60% of our then outstanding shares of common stock at a price of $23.25 per share, for a total cost of approximately $1.4 billion. In December 2011, we entered into a Private Placement Agreement with Total, under which Total purchased, and we issued and sold, 18.6 million shares of our common stock for a purchase price of $8.80 per share, thereby increasing Total's ownership to approximately 66% of our outstanding common stock as of that date. As of April 4, 2021, ownership of our outstanding common stock by Total SE and its affiliates was approximat ely 51%. Subsequent to the spin-off of Maxeon Solar, Total received a pro rata distribution of ordinary shares of Maxeon Solar, and its percentage ownership of shares in SunPower did not change. Supply Agreements In December 2019, we sold our membership interests in certain project companies to Total Strong, LLC., a joint venture between Total and Hannon Armstrong. During the three months ended April 4, 2021, we recognized revenue of $15.1 million for sales to this joint venture, for continued recognition of engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") revenue during the quarter, which is included within "Solar power systems, components, and other" on our consolidated statements of operations. Affiliation Agreement We and Total have entered into an Affiliation Agreement that governs the relationship between Total and us (the "Affiliation Agreement"). Until the expiration of a standstill period specified in the Affiliation Agreement (the "Standstill Period"), and subject to certain exceptions, Total, Total SE, and any of their respective affiliates and certain other related parties (collectively, the "Total Group") may not effect, seek, or enter into discussions with any third party regarding any transaction that would result in the Total Group beneficially owning our shares in excess of certain thresholds, or request us or our independent directors, officers, or employees to amend or waive any of the standstill restrictions applicable to the Total Group. The Standstill Period ends when Total holds less than 15% ownership of us. The Affiliation Agreement imposes certain limitations on the Total Group's ability to seek to effect a tender offer or merger to acquire 100% of our outstanding voting power and imposes certain limitations on the Total Group's ability to transfer 40% or more of our outstanding shares or voting power to a single person or group that is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of Total SE. During the Standstill Period, no member of the Total Group may, among other things, solicit proxies or become a participant in an election contest relating to the election of directors to our board of directors. The Affiliation Agreement provides Total with the right to maintain its percentage ownership in connection with any new securities issued by us, and Total may also purchase shares on the open market or in private transactions with disinterested stockholders, subject in each case to certain restrictions. The Affiliation Agreement also imposes certain restrictions with respect to the ability of us and our board of directors to take certain actions, including specifying certain actions that require approval by the directors other than the directors appointed by Total and other actions that require stockholder approval by Total. Cooperation Agreement In December 2020, we entered into a strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement (the "Cooperation Agreement") with Total that governs the ongoing relationship between us and Total with respect to development and sale of certain future commercial solar power projects. The Cooperation Agreement lays the foundation for the potential to jointly develop certain projects and allows us and Total to expand investments in solar power projects to provide for future opportunities and investment volume. Among other things, the Cooperation Agreement provides for: • our obligation to offer and ability to sell certain projects to Total at pre-agreed model metrics; • our ability to obtain non-recourse financing of construction costs; • our ability to obtain financing of development costs as various milestones in the project development cycle are achieved; • exclusivity over our offering of various post-sale services for projects sold to Total or its affiliates; and • our right to offer EPC services on some downstream generation projects being developed by Total. The Cooperation Agreement will remain in effect until December 31, 2023, unless otherwise terminated. 0.875% Debentures Due 2021 In June 2014, we issued $400.0 million in principal amount of our 0.875% debentures due June 1, 2021. An aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million of the 0.875% debentures due 2021 was initially acquired by Total. Interest is payable semi-annually, beginning on December 1, 2014. The 0.875% debentures due 2021 are convertible into shares of our common stock at any time. When issued, the initial conversion rate in respect of the 0.875% debentures due 2021 was 20.5071 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 0.875% senior convertible debentures (which was equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $48.76 per share). After giving effect to the Spin-Off, effective September 1, 2020, the conversion rate was adjusted to 25.1388 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures (which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $39.78 per share). The applicable conversion rate may further adjust in certain circumstances, including a fundamental change, as described in the indenture governing the 0.875% debentures due 2021. If not earlier repurchased or converted, the 0.875% debentures due 2021 mature on June 1, 2021. During the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, we purchased $337.4 million of aggregate principal amount of the 0.875% debentures due 2021, including $250.0 million of principal amount representing the entire amount held by Total, for cash proceeds of approximately $334.7 million, net. As of April 4, 2021, the outstanding principal amount of the 0.875% debentures due 2021 was $62.5 million, none of which was held by Total. 4.00% Debentures Due 2023 In December 2015, we issued $425.0 million in principal amount of our 4.00% debentures due 2023. An aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million of the 4.00% debentures due 2023 was acquired by Total. Interest is payable semi-annually, beginning on July 15, 2016. The 4.00% debentures due 2023 are convertible into shares of our common stock at any time. When issued, the initial conversion rate in respect of the 4.00% debentures due 2023 was 32.7568 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures (which was equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $30.53 per share). After giving effect to the Spin-Off, effective September 1, 2020, the conversion rate adjusted to 40.1552 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures (which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $24.90 per share), which provides Total the right to acquire up to 4,015,515 shares of our common stock. Notice of the conversion rate adjustment was delivered to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the trustee, in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the 4.00% debentures due 2023. The applicable conversion rate may further adjust in certain circumstances, including a fundamental change, as described in the indenture governing the 4.00% debentures due 2023. If not earlier repurchased or converted, the 4.00% debentures due 2023 mature on January 15, 2023. Joint Solar Projects with Total and its Affiliates We enter into various EPC and operations and maintenance ("O&M") agreements relating to solar projects, including EPC and O&M services agreements relating to projects owned or partially owned by Total and its affiliates. As of April 4, 2021, we had $48.4 million of "Contract assets", $1.1 million of "Contract liabilities" and $0.2 million of "Accounts receivable, net" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets related to projects in which Total and its affiliates have a direct or indirect material interest. Related-Party Transactions with Total and its Affiliates: The following related-party balances and amounts are associated with transactions entered into with Total and its Affiliates.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers | REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS Disaggregation of Revenue The following tables represent disaggregated revenue from contracts with customers for the three months ended April 4, 2021, and March 29, 2020 along with the reportable segment for each category: Three Months Ended (In thousands) April 4, 2021 March 29, 2020 Category Residential, Light Commercial Commercial and Industrial Solutions Others Total Residential, Light Commercial Commercial and Industrial Solutions Others Total Solar power systems sales and EPC services $ 232,777 $ 62,992 $ 1,587 $ 297,356 $ 221,915 $ 47,627 $ 676 $ 270,218 Operations and maintenance — 3,270 611 3,881 — 2,561 12,510 15,071 Residential leasing 1,120 — — 1,120 1,324 — — 1,324 Solar services 4,041 — — 4,041 3,509 424 — 3,933 Revenue $ 237,938 $ 66,262 $ 2,198 $ 306,398 $ 226,748 $ 50,612 $ 13,186 $ 290,546 We recognize revenue for sales of modules and components at the point that control transfers to the customer, which occurs upon shipment or delivery to the customer, depending on the terms of the contract, and we recognize revenue for operations and maintenance and solar services over the term of the service period. For EPC revenue and solar power systems sales, we commence recognizing revenue when control of the underlying system transfers to the customer and continue recognizing revenue over time as work is performed based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligations. For contracts in which we sell membership interests in certain project companies, we recognize revenue for the initial development and other solar assets at the point that control transfers to the customer, and we recognize continuing EPC revenue for work provided to the joint venture over time as work is performed. Our arrangements may contain clauses such as liquidated damages for delays or early performance bonus, most favorable pricing, or other provisions that can either increase or decrease the transaction price. These variable amounts generally are awarded upon achievement of certain performance metrics or milestones. Variable consideration is estimated at each measurement date at its most likely amount to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and true-ups are applied prospectively as such estimates change. Judgment is required to evaluate assumptions including the amount of net contract revenues and the total estimated costs to determine our progress towards contract completion and to calculate the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize. If estimated total costs on any contract are greater than the net contract revenues, we recognize the entire estimated loss in the period the loss becomes known. For contracts with post-installation systems monitoring and maintenance, we recognize revenue related to systems monitoring and maintenance over the non-cancellable contract term on a straight-line basis. Changes in estimates for sales of systems for EPC services occur for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to (i) construction plan accelerations or delays, (ii) product cost forecast changes, (iii) change orders, or (iv) changes in other information used to estimate costs. Changes in estimates may have a material effect in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The table below outlines the impact on revenue of net changes in estimated transaction prices and input costs for systems related sales contracts (both increases and decreases) for the three months ended April 4, 2021 and March 29, 2020 as well as the number of projects that comprise such changes. For purposes of the following table, only projects with changes in estimates that have an impact on revenue and or cost of at least $1.0 million, calculated on a quarterly basis during the periods, are presented. Also included in the table is the net change in estimate as a percentage of the aggregate revenue for such projects. Three Months Ended (In thousands, except number of projects) April 4, 2021 March 29, 2020 Increase (decrease) in revenue from net changes in transaction prices $ — $ — Increase (decrease) in revenue from net changes in input cost estimates — (1,133) Net decrease in revenue from net changes in estimates $ — $ (1,133) Number of projects — 1 Net change in estimate as a percentage of aggregate revenue for associated projects — % (1.1) % Contract Assets and Liabilities Contract assets consist of (i) retainage which represents the earned, but unbilled, portion of a construction and development project for which payment is deferred by the customer until certain contractual milestones are met; and (ii) unbilled receivables which represent revenue that has been recognized in advance of billing the customer, which is common for long-term construction contracts. Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue and customer advances, which represent consideration received from a customer prior to transferring control of goods or services to the customer under the terms of a sales contract. Refer to Note 4. Balance Sheet Components for further details. During the three months ended April 4, 2021, the decrease in contract assets of $0.5 million was primarily driven by billings for commercial projects where certain milestones had been reached, as well as a decrease in management's estimate of variable consideration on power plant development projects and commercial projects sold in prior years. During the three months ended March 29, 2020, the decrease in contract assets of $35.7 million was primarily driven by billings for commercial projects where certain milestones had been reached as well as changes in estimates of variable consideration due for previous sales of certain power plant projects. During the three months ended April 4, 2021 and March 29, 2020, the decrease in contract liabilities of $13.5 million and $11.4 million, respectively, was primarily due to the attainment of milestones billings for a variety of projects.

During the three months ended March 29, 2020, we recognized revenue of $46.6 million that was included in contract liabilities as of December 29, 2019. The following table represents our remaining performance obligations as of April 4, 2021 for EPC agreements for projects that we are constructing or expect to construct. We expect to recognize $143.6 million of revenue upon transfer of control of the projects. Project Revenue Category EPC Contract/Partner Developed Project Expected Year Revenue Recognition Will Be Completed Average Percentage of Revenue Recognized Various Distribution Generation Projects Solar power systems sales and EPC services Various 2023 92.7 % As of April 4, 2021, we have entered into contracts with customers for sales of modules and components for an aggregate transaction price of $242.1 million, the substantial majority of which we expect to recognize over the next 12 months. |

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement (observable inputs are the preferred basis of valuation): • Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2 — Measurements are inputs that are observable for assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, other than quoted prices included within Level 1. • Level 3 — Prices or valuations that require management inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis We measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels during any presented period. The following table summarizes our assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis as of April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021: April 4, 2021 January 3, 2021 (In thousands) Total Fair Value Level 3 Level 2 Level 1 Total Fair Value Level 3 Level 2 Level 1 Assets Other long-term assets: Equity investments with fair value option ("FVO") $ 9,924 $ 9,924 $ — $ — $ 9,924 $ 9,924 $ — $ — Equity investments with readily determinable fair value 569,418 — — 569,418 614,148 — — 614,148 Total assets $ 579,342 $ 9,924 $ — $ 569,418 $ 624,072 $ 9,924 $ — $ 614,148 Liabilities Other long-term liabilities: Interest rate swap contracts $ 452 $ — $ 452 $ — $ 600 $ — $ 600 $ — Total liabilities $ 452 $ — $ 452 $ — $ 600 $ — $ 600 $ — Equity investments with fair value option ("FVO") We have elected the fair value option in accordance with the guidance in ASC 825, Financial Instruments , for our investment in the SunStrong Capital Holdings, LLC ("SunStrong") joint venture and SunStrong Partners, LLC ("SunStrong Partners"), to mitigate volatility in reported earnings that results from the use of different measurement attributes (see Note 9). We initially computed the fair value for our investments consistent with the methodology and assumptions that market participants would use in their estimates of fair value with the assistance of a third-party valuation specialist. The fair value computation is updated using the same methodology on a quarterly basis considering material changes in the business of SunStrong or other inputs. The investments are classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy because we estimate the fair value of the investments using the income approach based on the discounted cash flow method which considered estimated future financial performance, including assumptions for, among others, forecasted contractual lease income, lease expenses, residual value of these lease assets and long-term discount rates, and forecasted default rates over the lease term and discount rates, some of which require significant judgment by management and are not based on observable inputs. The following table summarizes movements in equity investments for the three months ended April 4, 2021. There were no internal movements to or from Level 3 from Level 1 or Level 2 for the three months ended April 4, 2021. (In thousands) Beginning balance as of January 3, 2021 Equity Distribution Additional Investment Ending balance as of April 4, 2021 Equity investments with FVO $9,924 $— $— $9,924 Level 3 significant unobservable inputs sensitivity The following table summarizes the significant unobservable inputs used in Level 3 valuation of our investments carried at fair value as of April 4, 2021. Included in the table are the inputs or range of possible inputs that have an effect on the overall valuation of the financial instruments. 2021 Assets: Fair value Valuation Technique Unobservable input Range (Weighted Average) Other long-term assets: Equity investments $ 9,924 Discounted cash flows Discount rate 12.5%-13% 1 7.5% 1 Total assets $ 9,924 1 The primary unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of our equity investments, when using a discounted cash flow model, are the discount rate and residual value. Significant increases (decreases) in the discount rate in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. We estimate the discount rate based on risk appropriate projected cost of equity. We estimate the residual value based on the contracted systems in place in the years being projected. Significant increases (decreases) in the residual value in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. Equity investments with readily determinable fair value In connection with the divestment of our microinverter business to Enphase Energy, Inc. ("Enphase") on August 9, 2018, we received 7.5 million shares of Enphase common stock (NASDAQ: ENPH). The common stock received was recorded as an equity investment with readily determinable fair value (Level 1), with changes in fair value recognized in net income in accordance with ASU 2016-01 Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities . For the three months ended April 4, 2021 and March 29, 2020, we recorded loss of $44.7 million and gain of $47.9 million, respectively, within "other, net" in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. During the three months ended March 29, 2020 , we sold an additional one million shares of Enphase common stock in open market transactions for cash proceeds of $43.7 million. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis We measure certain investments and non-financial assets (including property, plant and equipment, and other intangible assets) at fair value on a non-recurring basis in periods after initial measurement in circumstances when the fair value of such asset is impaired below its recorded cost. As of April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, there were no material items recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis. Equity investments without readily determinable fair value |

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract] | |
Restructuring | RESTRUCTURING January 2021 Restructuring Plan During the quarter ended April 4, 2021, we adopted a restructuring plan to realign and optimize workforce requirements concurrent with the planned closure of our manufacturing facility in Hillsboro, Oregon. In connection with the restructuring plan, which included actions to be implemented in the first quarter of 2021 and expected to be completed by the third quarter of 2021, we expected the majority of our approximately 170 primarily manufacturing employees to exit over a period of 3 to 6 months. Further, in connection with the closure, in April 2021, we signed agreements with two independent third parties to sell certain assets and liabilities, as well as, retain and engage some employees at the facility in providing R&D services. The proceeds for the assets and sale of R&D services, together with the assumption of certain liabilities, will reduce our previously anticipated restructuring charges. As of April 4, 2021, we had incurred cumulative costs of approximately $3.7 million in restructuring charges, primarily relating to the severance benefits. The majority of the remaining charges relating to the severance benefits are expected to be incurred in the second fiscal quarter of 2021, while a small portion may be incurred in 2022 through the end of the R&D services agreement. We expect to incur restructuring charges totaling approximately $7.0 million to $9.0 million, consisting primarily of severance benefits (between $4.0 million and $5.0 million) and real estate lease termination costs (between $3.0 million and $4.0 million). December 2019 Restructuring Plan During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, we adopted a restructuring plan to realign and optimize workforce requirements in light of changes to our business, including the Spin-Off of Maxeon Solar. In connection with the restructuring plan, which included actions implemented in the fourth quarter of 2019, we expected between 145 and 160 non-manufacturing employees, representing approximately 3% of our global workforce, to exit over a period of approximately 12 to 18 months. Between 65 and 70 of these employees were in our legacy SunPower Technologies business unit and corporate, most of whom exited our company following the Spin-Off, and the remainder of which exited upon completion of transition services. As the legacy SunPower Energy Services business unit refines its focus on distributed generation, storage, and energy services, 80 to 90 employees exited during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2019 and the first half of 2020. As of April 4, 2021, we had incurred cumulative costs of approximately $10.2 million in restructuring charges consisting primarily of severance and retention benefits and the Plan is substantially complete. The following table summarizes the comparative periods-to-date restructuring charges by plan recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations: Three Months Ended (In thousands) April 4, 2021 March 29, 2020 Cumulative To Date January 2021 Restructuring Plan: Severance and benefits $ 3,671 $ — $ 3,671 Other costs 1 13 — 13 Total January 2021 Restructuring Plan 3,684 — 3,684 December 2019 Restructuring Plan: Severance and benefits (28) 1,639 10,005 Other costs 1 112 — 159 Total December 2019 Restructuring Plan 84 1,639 10,164 Other Legacy Restructuring Plans (2) (63) 68,640 Total restructuring charges (credits) $ 3,766 $ 1,576 $ 82,488 1 Other costs primarily represented associated legal and advisory services and costs of relocating employees.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Facility and Equipment Leases We lease certain facilities under non-cancellable operating leases from third parties. We also lease certain buildings under non-cancellable finance leases. Operating leases are subject to renewal options for periods ranging from 1 year to 10 years. We have disclosed quantitative information related to the lease contracts we have entered into as a lessee by aggregating the information based on the nature of asset such that the assets of similar characteristics and lease terms are shown within one single financial statement line item. The table below presents the summarized quantitative information with regard to lease contracts we have entered into: Three Months Ended (In thousands) April 4, 2021 March 29, 2020 Operating leases: Operating lease expense $ 3,714 $ 3,418 Sublease income (106) (35) Rent expense $ 3,608 $ 3,383 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities Operating cash flows for operating leases 1 $ 4,163 $ 3,309 Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for leases 1 $ 11,528 $ 12,461 Weighted-average remaining lease term (in years) - operating leases 8.0 7.0 Weighted-average discount rate - operating leases 8.8 % 9 % 1 Amounts for the three months ended April 4, 2021 and March 29, 2020 include consolidated balances, including discontinued operations. The future minimum lease payments to be paid under non-cancellable leases in effect at April 4, 2021, are as follows (in thousands): As of April 4, 2021 Operating Leases 2021 $ 13,375 2022 15,090 2023 12,289 2024 8,426 2025 4,758 Thereafter 26,098 Total lease payments 80,036 Less: imputed interest (24,167) Total $ 55,869 As of April 4, 2021, we have two additional operating leases that have not yet commenced with future minimum lease payments amounting t o $24.7 million. These operating leases will have a lease term of 16 years after their commencement. Purchase Commitments Future purchase obligations under non-cancellable purchase orders and long-term supply agreements as o f April 4, 2021 are as follows: (In thousands) Fiscal 2021 Fiscal 2022 Fiscal 2023 Fiscal 2024 Fiscal 2025 Thereafter Total 1 Future purchase obligations $ 207,960 $ 108,401 $ 33,148 $ 1,710 $ 775 $ 5,307 $ 357,301 1 Total future purchase obligations were composed of $33.5 million related to non-cancellable purchase orders and $323.8 million related to long-term supply agreements. The future purchase obligations presented above primarily consist of commitments to purchase photovoltaic modules pursuant to the supply agreement with Maxeon Solar entered into on August 26, 2020, as amended, as well as commitments to purchase Module-Level Power Electronics ("MLPE") supplied by one vendor. The terms of all our long-term supply agreements are reviewed annually by us and we assess the need for any accruals for estimated losses on adverse purchase commitments, such as lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments that will not be recovered by future sales prices, forfeiture of advanced deposits and liquidated damages, as necessary. Product Warranties The following table summarizes accrued warranty activities for the three months ended April 4, 2021 and March 29, 2020: Three Months Ended (In thousands) April 4, 2021 March 29, 2020 Balance at the beginning of the period $ 81,877 $ 101,380 Accruals for warranties issued during the period 9,484 6,526 Settlements and adjustments during the period (19,090) (8,354) Balance at the end of the period $ 72,271 $ 99,552 In some cases, we may offer customers the option to purchase extended warranties to ensure protection beyond the standard warranty period. In those circumstances, the warranty is considered a distinct service and we account for the extended warranty as a performance obligation and allocate a portion of the transaction price to that performance obligation. More frequently, customers do not purchase a warranty separately. In those situations, we account for the warranty as an assurance-type warranty, which provides customers with assurance that the product complies with agreed-upon specifications, and this does not represent a separate performance obligation. Such warranties are recorded separately as liabilities and presented within "accrued liabilities" and "other long-term liabilities" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets (see Note 4. Balance Sheet Components ). Project Agreements with Customers Project agreements entered into with our commercial and power plant customers often require us to undertake obligations including: (i) system output performance warranties, (ii) penalty payments or customer termination rights if the system we are constructing is not commissioned within specified time frames or other milestones are not achieved, and (iii) system put rights whereby we could be required to buy back a customer's system at fair value on specified future dates if certain minimum performance thresholds are not met for specified periods. Historically, our systems have performed significantly above their performance warranty thresholds, and there have been no cases in which we have had to buy back a system. As of April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, we had $8.3 million and $9.1 million, respectively, classified as "accrued liabilities," and $2.8 million and $3.1 million, respectively, classified as "other long-term liabilities" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets for such obligations. Liabilities Associated with Uncertain Tax Positions Total liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions were $12.5 million and $12.6 million as of April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, respectively. These amounts are included within "other long-term liabilities" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets in their respective periods as they are not expected to be paid within the next 12 months. Due to the complexity and uncertainty associated with our tax positions, we cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the period in which cash settlement, if any, would be made for our liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions in Other long-term liabilities. Indemnifications We are a party to a variety of agreements under which we may be obligated to indemnify the counterparty with respect to certain matters. Typically, these obligations arise in connection with contracts and license agreements or the sale of assets, under which we customarily agree to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of warranties, representations and covenants related to such matters as title to assets sold, negligent acts, damage to property, validity of certain intellectual property rights, non-infringement of third-party rights, and certain tax-related matters including indemnification to customers under Section 48(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, regarding solar commercial investment tax credits ("ITCs") and U.S. Treasury Department ("U.S. Treasury") cash grant payments under Section 1603 of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (each a "Cash Grant"). Further, in connection with our sale of residential lease assets in fiscal 2018 to SunStrong, we provide Hannon Armstrong indemnification related to cash flow losses arising from a recapture of California property taxes on account of a change in ownership, recapture of federal tax attributes and cash flow losses from leases that do not generate the promised savings to homeowners. The maximum exposure to loss arising from the indemnification for SunStrong is limited to the consideration received for the solar power systems. In each of these circumstances, payment by us is typically subject to the other party making a claim to us that is contemplated by and valid under the indemnification provisions of the particular contract, which provisions are typically contract-specific, as well as bringing the claim under the procedures specified in the particular contract. These procedures usually allow us to challenge the other party's claims or, in case of breach of intellectual property representations or covenants, to control the defense or settlement of any third-party claims brought against the other party. Further, our obligations under these agreements may be limited in terms of activity (typically to replace or correct the products or terminate the agreement with a refund to the other party), duration or amount. In some instances, we may have recourse against third parties or insurance covering certain payments made by us. In certain circumstances, we are contractually obligated to compensate customers and investors for losses they may suffer as a result of reductions in benefits received under ITCs and U.S. Treasury Cash Grant programs. We apply for ITCs and Cash Grant incentives based on guidance provided by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and the U.S. Treasury, which include assumptions regarding the fair value of the qualified solar power systems, among others. Certain of our development agreements, sale-leaseback arrangements, and financing arrangements with tax equity investors, incorporate assumptions regarding the future level of incentives to be received, which in some instances may be claimed directly by our customers and investors. Generally, such obligations would arise as a result of reductions to the value of the underlying solar power systems as assessed by the IRS. At each balance sheet date, we assess and recognize, when applicable, the potential exposure from these obligations based on all the information available at that time, including any audits undertaken by the IRS. The maximum potential future payments that we could have to make under this obligation would depend on the difference between the eligible basis claimed on the tax filing for the solar energy systems sold or transferred to indemnified parties and the values that the IRS may determine as the eligible basis for the systems for purposes of claiming ITCs or Cash Grants. We use the eligible basis for tax filing purposes determined with the assistance of independent third-party appraisals to determine the ITCs that are passed-through to and claimed by the indemnified parties. We continue to retain certain indemnities, specifically, around ITCs and Cash Grants and California property taxes, even after the underlying portfolio of assets is sold to a third party. For contracts that have such indemnification provisions, we recognize a liability under ASC 460, "Guarantees," for the estimated premium that would be required by a guarantor to issue the same guarantee in a standalone arm’s-length transaction with an unrelated party. We recognize such liabilities at the greater of the fair value of the indemnity or the contingent liability required to be recognized under ASC 450, "Contingencies." We initially estimate the fair value of any such indemnities provided based on the cost of insurance policies that cover the underlying risks being indemnified and may purchase such policies to mitigate our exposure to potential indemnification payments. After an indemnification liability is recorded, we derecognize such amount typically upon expiration or settlement of the arrangement. As of April 4, 2021, and January 3, 2021, our provision was $9.7 million and $9.4 million primarily for tax-related indemnifications. SunPower is party to various supply agreements (collectively, the “Hemlock Agreements”) with Hemlock Semiconductor Operations LLC (f/k/a Hemlock Semiconductor Corporation) and its affiliate, Hemlock Semiconductor, LLC, for the procurement of polysilicon. In connection with the Spin-Off, SunPower and Maxeon Solar entered into an agreement pursuant to which Maxeon Solar has received SunPower’s rights under the Hemlock Agreements (including SunPower’s deposits and advanced payments thereunder) and, in return, Maxeon Solar has agreed to perform all of SunPower’s existing and future obligations under the Hemlock Agreements (including all take-or-pay obligations). While, as we remain a party to the Hemlock Agreements, we may contractually be liable to the vendor in case of non-payment by Maxeon Solar, we do not believe we have any current or future net exposure under the Hemlock Agreements as of the end of quarter ended April 4, 2021. Maxeon Solar's remaining obligations under this contract amount to $90.9 million and $125.8 million, for the remainder of fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2022, respectively. Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement entered into by us and Maxeon Solar, we also agreed to indemnify Maxeon Solar for any liabilities arising out of certain existing litigation relating to businesses contributed to Maxeon Solar in connection with the Spin-Off. We expect to be actively involved in managing this litigation together with Maxeon Solar. The indemnity qualifies for the criteria for accounting under the guidance in ASC 460 and we have recorded the liability of litigation of $4.5 million equal to the fair value of the guarantee provided as of the period ended April 4, 2021. Legal Matters We are a party to various litigation matters and claims that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. While we believe that the ultimate outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on us, their outcomes are not determinable and negative outcomes may adversely affect our financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. |

Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs") A VIE is an entity that has either (i) insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (ii) equity investors who lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. We follow guidance on the consolidation of VIEs that requires companies to utilize a qualitative approach to determine whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. The process for identifying the primary beneficiary of a VIE requires consideration of the factors that indicate a party has the power to direct activities that most significantly impact the investees' economic performance, including powers granted to the investees' governing board and, to a certain extent, a company's economic interest in the investee. We analyze our investments in VIEs and classify them as either unconsolidated VIEs or consolidated VIEs ( Refer to our Form 10K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021 for further details on our various VIE arrangements ). Unconsolidated VIEs We have elected the FVO in accordance with the guidance in ASC 825, Financial Instruments , for our investments in SunStrong, SunStrong Partners, and 8point3 Holdings, our unconsolidated VIEs. Refer to Note 6. Fair Value Measurements . Summarized Financial Information of Unconsolidated VIEs The following table presents summarized financial statements for SunStrong, a significant investee, based on unaudited information provided to us by the investee: 1 Three Months Ended (In thousands) April 4, 2021 March 29, 2020 Summarized statements of operations information: Revenue $ 33,097 $ 29,464 Gross income (loss) 1,214 (1,438) Net (loss) income (45,789) 21,640 As of (In thousands) April 4, 2021 January 3, 2021 Summarized balance sheet information: Current assets $ 92,493 $ 93,752 Long-term assets 1,439,119 1,378,382 Current liabilities 47,859 48,126 Long-term liabilities 1,168,705 1,130,484 1 Note that amounts are reported one quarter in arrears as permitted by applicable guidance.

Our outstanding convertible debentures are senior, unsecured obligations ranking equally with all of our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. Loan Agreement with California Enterprise Development Authority ("CEDA") In 2010, we borrowed the proceeds of the $30.0 million aggregate principal amount of CEDA's tax-exempt Recovery Zone Facility Revenue Bonds (SunPower Corporation - Headquarters Project) Series 2010 (the "Bonds") maturing April 1, 2031 under a loan agreement with CEDA. The Bonds mature on April 1, 2031 and bear interest at a fixed rate of 8.50% through maturity, and include customary covenants and other restrictions on us. As per the terms of the agreement, the bonds were subject to a 'make-whole' provision, wherein if retired prior to April 1, 2021, the Company has to 'make-whole' the bond holders for the full amount of unpaid interest through the term of the loan. After the make-whole provision expired in April 2021, the bonds can be retired any time at par value. As of April 4, 2021, the fair value of the Bonds was $30.1 million, determined by using Level 2 inputs based on quarterly market prices as reported by an independent pricing source. On April 15, 2021, we repaid the outstanding principal amount of our $30.0 million loan with CEDA. Non-recourse Financing and Other Debt In order to facilitate the construction, sale, or ongoing operation of certain solar projects, including our commercial projects, we regularly obtain project-level financing. These financings are secured either by the assets of the specific project being financed or by our equity in the relevant project entity and the lenders do not have recourse to our general assets for repayment of such debt obligations, and hence the financings are referred to as non-recourse. Non-recourse financing is typically in the form of loans from third-party financial institutions, but also takes other forms, including partnership flip structures, sale-leaseback arrangements, or other forms commonly used in the solar or similar industries. We may seek non-recourse financing covering solely the construction period of the solar project or may also seek financing covering part or all of the operating life of the solar project. We classify non-recourse financings on our consolidated balance sheets in accordance with their terms; however, in certain circumstances, we may repay or refinance these financings prior to stated maturity dates in connection with the sale of the related project or similar such circumstances. As of April 4, 2021, we had $151.5 million outstanding under these financings. We also enter other debt arrangements to finance operations. The following presents a summary of these non-recourse financing and other debt arrangements: Aggregate Carrying Value 1 (In thousands) April 4, 2021 January 3, 2021 Balance Sheet Classification PNC Energy Capital loan 2 $ 5,478 $ 5,545 Short-term debt and Long-term debt Asset-Backed Loan 68,977 32,690 Short-term debt and Long-term debt Safe Harbor 74,243 75,910 Short-term debt and Long-term debt Other debt 2,845 560 Short-term debt and Long-term debt Various construction project debt 3 — 9,583 Short-term debt 1 Based on the nature of the debt arrangements included in the table above, and our intention to fully repay or transfer the obligations at their face values plus any applicable interest, we believe their carrying value materially approximates fair value, which is categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. 2 In fiscal 2013, we entered into a financing agreement with PNC Energy Capital, LLC to finance our construction projects. Interest is calculated at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR plus 4.13%. 3 In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 and throughout fiscal 2020, we entered into various financing agreements with Fifth Third Bank, National Association, to finance our construction projects. The amount borrowed is non-recourse in nature and cannot exceed the total costs of the project. Each draw bears interest on the unpaid amount at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR. The loan matures at the earliest of 85 days after the project is placed in service; 9 months after the initial borrowing date; or the first anniversary of satisfaction of the closing conditions set forth by the Lenders, including the delivery of the signed loan agreement by the borrower Asset-Backed Loan with Bank of America |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Related Party Transactions | TRANSACTIONS WITH TOTAL AND TOTAL SE In June 2011, Total completed a cash tender offer to acquire 60% of our then outstanding shares of common stock at a price of $23.25 per share, for a total cost of approximately $1.4 billion. In December 2011, we entered into a Private Placement Agreement with Total, under which Total purchased, and we issued and sold, 18.6 million shares of our common stock for a purchase price of $8.80 per share, thereby increasing Total's ownership to approximately 66% of our outstanding common stock as of that date. As of April 4, 2021, ownership of our outstanding common stock by Total SE and its affiliates was approximat ely 51%. Subsequent to the spin-off of Maxeon Solar, Total received a pro rata distribution of ordinary shares of Maxeon Solar, and its percentage ownership of shares in SunPower did not change. Supply Agreements In December 2019, we sold our membership interests in certain project companies to Total Strong, LLC., a joint venture between Total and Hannon Armstrong. During the three months ended April 4, 2021, we recognized revenue of $15.1 million for sales to this joint venture, for continued recognition of engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") revenue during the quarter, which is included within "Solar power systems, components, and other" on our consolidated statements of operations. Affiliation Agreement We and Total have entered into an Affiliation Agreement that governs the relationship between Total and us (the "Affiliation Agreement"). Until the expiration of a standstill period specified in the Affiliation Agreement (the "Standstill Period"), and subject to certain exceptions, Total, Total SE, and any of their respective affiliates and certain other related parties (collectively, the "Total Group") may not effect, seek, or enter into discussions with any third party regarding any transaction that would result in the Total Group beneficially owning our shares in excess of certain thresholds, or request us or our independent directors, officers, or employees to amend or waive any of the standstill restrictions applicable to the Total Group. The Standstill Period ends when Total holds less than 15% ownership of us. The Affiliation Agreement imposes certain limitations on the Total Group's ability to seek to effect a tender offer or merger to acquire 100% of our outstanding voting power and imposes certain limitations on the Total Group's ability to transfer 40% or more of our outstanding shares or voting power to a single person or group that is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of Total SE. During the Standstill Period, no member of the Total Group may, among other things, solicit proxies or become a participant in an election contest relating to the election of directors to our board of directors. The Affiliation Agreement provides Total with the right to maintain its percentage ownership in connection with any new securities issued by us, and Total may also purchase shares on the open market or in private transactions with disinterested stockholders, subject in each case to certain restrictions. The Affiliation Agreement also imposes certain restrictions with respect to the ability of us and our board of directors to take certain actions, including specifying certain actions that require approval by the directors other than the directors appointed by Total and other actions that require stockholder approval by Total. Cooperation Agreement In December 2020, we entered into a strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement (the "Cooperation Agreement") with Total that governs the ongoing relationship between us and Total with respect to development and sale of certain future commercial solar power projects. The Cooperation Agreement lays the foundation for the potential to jointly develop certain projects and allows us and Total to expand investments in solar power projects to provide for future opportunities and investment volume. Among other things, the Cooperation Agreement provides for: • our obligation to offer and ability to sell certain projects to Total at pre-agreed model metrics; • our ability to obtain non-recourse financing of construction costs; • our ability to obtain financing of development costs as various milestones in the project development cycle are achieved; • exclusivity over our offering of various post-sale services for projects sold to Total or its affiliates; and • our right to offer EPC services on some downstream generation projects being developed by Total. The Cooperation Agreement will remain in effect until December 31, 2023, unless otherwise terminated. 0.875% Debentures Due 2021 In June 2014, we issued $400.0 million in principal amount of our 0.875% debentures due June 1, 2021. An aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million of the 0.875% debentures due 2021 was initially acquired by Total. Interest is payable semi-annually, beginning on December 1, 2014. The 0.875% debentures due 2021 are convertible into shares of our common stock at any time. When issued, the initial conversion rate in respect of the 0.875% debentures due 2021 was 20.5071 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 0.875% senior convertible debentures (which was equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $48.76 per share). After giving effect to the Spin-Off, effective September 1, 2020, the conversion rate was adjusted to 25.1388 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures (which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $39.78 per share). The applicable conversion rate may further adjust in certain circumstances, including a fundamental change, as described in the indenture governing the 0.875% debentures due 2021. If not earlier repurchased or converted, the 0.875% debentures due 2021 mature on June 1, 2021. During the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, we purchased $337.4 million of aggregate principal amount of the 0.875% debentures due 2021, including $250.0 million of principal amount representing the entire amount held by Total, for cash proceeds of approximately $334.7 million, net. As of April 4, 2021, the outstanding principal amount of the 0.875% debentures due 2021 was $62.5 million, none of which was held by Total. 4.00% Debentures Due 2023 In December 2015, we issued $425.0 million in principal amount of our 4.00% debentures due 2023. An aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million of the 4.00% debentures due 2023 was acquired by Total. Interest is payable semi-annually, beginning on July 15, 2016. The 4.00% debentures due 2023 are convertible into shares of our common stock at any time. When issued, the initial conversion rate in respect of the 4.00% debentures due 2023 was 32.7568 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures (which was equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $30.53 per share). After giving effect to the Spin-Off, effective September 1, 2020, the conversion rate adjusted to 40.1552 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures (which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $24.90 per share), which provides Total the right to acquire up to 4,015,515 shares of our common stock. Notice of the conversion rate adjustment was delivered to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the trustee, in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the 4.00% debentures due 2023. The applicable conversion rate may further adjust in certain circumstances, including a fundamental change, as described in the indenture governing the 4.00% debentures due 2023. If not earlier repurchased or converted, the 4.00% debentures due 2023 mature on January 15, 2023. Joint Solar Projects with Total and its Affiliates We enter into various EPC and operations and maintenance ("O&M") agreements relating to solar projects, including EPC and O&M services agreements relating to projects owned or partially owned by Total and its affiliates. As of April 4, 2021, we had $48.4 million of "Contract assets", $1.1 million of "Contract liabilities" and $0.2 million of "Accounts receivable, net" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets related to projects in which Total and its affiliates have a direct or indirect material interest. Related-Party Transactions with Total and its Affiliates: The following related-party balances and amounts are associated with transactions entered into with Total and its Affiliates.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES In the three months ended April 4, 2021, our income tax benefit of $5.2 million on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes and equity in earnings of unconsolidated investees of $54.7 million was primarily due to the current quarter windfall benefit from stock-based compensation deduction, and true-up of estimated state tax liability. Our income tax provision of $0.9 million in the three months ended March 29, 2020 on a profit from continuing operations before income taxes and equity in earnings of unconsolidated investees of $21.0 million was primarily due to tax expense in foreign jurisdictions unrelated to Maxeon Solar that were profitable. During the three months ended April 4, 2021, in accordance with FASB guidance for interim reporting of income tax, we have computed our provision for income taxes based on a projected annual effective tax rate. Our projected effective tax rate is based on forecasted annualized results which may fluctuate significantly in future periods, in particular due to the uncertainty in our annual forecasts resulting from the unpredictable duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operating results. Total liabilities associated with uncertain tax positions were relatively unchanged at $12.5 million and $12.6 million as of April 4, 2021 and January 3, 2021, respectively. The adoption of ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Net Income (Loss) Per Share | NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE We calculate basic net income (loss) per share by dividing earnings allocated to common stockholders by the basic weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted weighted-average shares is computed by using the basic weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus any potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the treasury-stock method and the if-converted method, except when their effect is anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities include restricted stock units and the outstanding senior convertible debentures. ASC 260 requires that companies use income from continuing operations as a "control number" or benchmark to determine whether potential common shares are dilutive or antidilutive. When calculating discontinued operations, we used the same number of potential common shares used in computing the diluted per-share amount of income from continuing operations in computing all other reported diluted per-share amounts, even if the effect will be antidilutive compared to their respective basic per-share amounts. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to stockholders: Three Months Ended (In thousands, except per share amounts) April 4, 2021 March 29, 2020 Basic net income (loss) per share: Numerator: Net (loss) income attributable to stockholders - continuing operations $ (48,385) $ 21,540 Net loss attributable to stockholders - discontinued operations — (22,971) Net loss attributable to stockholders $ (48,385) $ (1,431) Denominator: Basic weighted-average common shares 171,200 168,822 Basic net (loss) income per share - continuing operations $ (0.28) $ 0.13 Basic net loss per share - discontinued operations — (0.14) Basic net loss per share $ (0.28) $ (0.01) Diluted net income per share: Numerator: Net (loss) income attributable to stockholders - continuing operations $ (48,385) $ 21,540 Add: Interest expense on 0.875% debentures due 2021, net of tax — 505 Net (loss) income available to common stockholders - continuing operations (48,385) 22,045 Net loss available to common stockholders - discontinued operations $ — $ (22,971) Denominator: Basic weighted-average common shares 171,200 168,822 Effect of dilutive securities: Restricted stock units — 2,104 0.875% debentures due 2021 — 6,350 Dilutive weighted-average common shares: 171,200 177,277 Dilutive net (loss) income per share - continuing operations $ (0.28) $ 0.12 Dilutive net loss per share - discontinued operations — (0.13) Dilutive net loss per share $ (0.28) $ (0.01) The following is a summary of outstanding anti-dilutive potential common stock that was excluded from diluted net income per share attributable to stockholders in the following periods: Three Months Ended (In thousands) April 4, 2021 March 29, 2020 Restricted stock units 876 3,343 0.875% debentures due 2021 1,575 — 4.00% debentures due 2023 17,068 13,922 |

Segment and Geographical Inform
Segment and Geographical Information | 3 Months Ended |
Apr. 04, 2021 | |
Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment and Geographical Information | SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION Our Residential, Light Commercial ("RLC") refers to sales of solar energy solutions, including sales to our third-party dealer network and resellers, storage solutions, cash and loan sales and long-term leases directly to end customers. The Commercial and Industrial Solutions segment ("C&I Solutions") refers to direct sales of turn-key EPC services, and sales of energy under power purchase agreements ("PPAs"). Certain legacy businesses consisting of worldwide power plant project development and project sales which we are winding down, as well as U.S. manufacturing, are not significant to overall operations, and are deemed non-core to our other businesses and classified as "Others". Certain key cross-functional support functions and responsibilities including corporate strategy, treasury, tax and accounting support and services, among others, continue to be centrally managed within the Corporate function. Each segment is managed by a business general manager that reports to our Chief Executive Officer, as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who reviews our business, manages resource allocations and measures performance of our activities between the RLC, C&I Solutions and Other segments. The CODM further views the business performance of each segment under two key sources of revenue - Dev Co and Power Co. Dev Co refers to our solar origination and installation revenue stream within each segment such as sale of solar power systems with our dealers and resellers network as well as installation and EPC revenues while Power Co refers to our post-system sale recurring services revenues, mainly from, asset management services and O&M services through our SunStrong partnership dealer services for RLC and our commercial dealer network for C&I Solutions. The risk profile of each revenue stream is different, and therefore, the segregation of Dev Co and Power Co provides the CODM with appropriate information to review business performance and allocate resources to each segment. Adjustments Made for Segment Purposes Adjustments Based on International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) Mark-to-market gain (loss) on equity investments We recognize adjustments related to the fair value of equity investments with readily determinable fair value based on the changes in the stock price of these equity investments at every reporting period. Under U.S. GAAP, mark-to-market gains and losses due to changes in stock prices for these securities are recorded in earnings while under IFRS, an election can be made to recognize such gains and losses in other comprehensive income. Such an election was made by Total SE. Further, we elected the FVO for some of our equity investments, and we adjust the carrying value of those investments based on their fair market value calculated periodically. Such option is not available under IFRS, and equity method accounting is required for those investments. Management believes that excluding these adjustments on equity investments is consistent with our internal reporting process as part of our status as a consolidated subsidiary of Total SE and better reflects our ongoing results. Other Adjustments Intersegment gross margin Our U.S. manufacturing operations that are part of the Others segment manufacture and sell solar modules to both operating segments, RLC and C&I Solutions, based on transfer prices determined based on management's assessment of market-based pricing terms. Such intersegment sales and related costs are eliminated at the corporate level to derive our condensed consolidated financial results. Gain (loss) on sale and impairment of residential lease assets In fiscal 2018 and 2019, in an effort to sell all the residential lease assets owned by us, we sold membership units representing a 49% membership interest in majority of its residential lease business and retained a 51% membership interest. We record an impairment charge based on the expected fair value for a portion of residential lease assets portfolio that was retained. Any charges or credits on these remaining unsold residential lease assets impairment, as well as its corresponding depreciation savings, are excluded from our non-GAAP results as they are not reflective of ongoing operating results. Stock-based compensation Stock-based compensation relates primarily to our equity incentive awards. Stock-based compensation is a non-cash expense that is dependent on market forces that are difficult to predict. We believe that this adjustment for stock-based compensation provides investors with a basis to measure our core performance, including the ability to compare our performance with the performance of other companies, without the period-to-period variability created by stock-based compensation. Transaction-related costs In connection with material transactions such as acquisition or divestiture of a business, we incur transaction costs including legal and accounting fees. We believe that it is appropriate to exclude these costs from our segment results as they would not have otherwise been incurred as part of our business operations and are therefore not reflective of ongoing operating results. Business reorganization costs In connection with the spin-off of Maxeon into an independent, publicly traded company, we incurred and expect to continue to incur in upcoming quarters, non-recurring charges on third-party legal and consulting expenses, primarily to enable in separation of shared information technology systems and applications. Management believes that it is appropriate to exclude these from company's non-GAAP results as it is not reflective of ongoing operating results. Restructuring charges We incur restructuring expenses related to reorganization plans aimed towards realigning resources consistent with our global strategy and improving our overall operating efficiency and cost structure. Although we have engaged in restructuring activities in the past, each has been a discrete event based on a unique set of business objectives. We believe that it is appropriate to exclude these from our non-GAAP results as they are not reflective of ongoing operating results. Results of operations of legacy business to be exited We exclude the first quarter 2021 results of operations of Hillsboro, Oregon facility from our non-GAAP results given that Hillsboro, Oregon facility ceased revenue generation in the first fiscal quarter of 2021 and all subsequent activities are focused on the wind-down of operations, pursuant to the previously announced closure of the operations. As such, they are not reflective of ongoing operating results. Litigation We may be involved in various instances of litigation, claims, and proceedings that result in payments or recoveries. We exclude gains or losses associated with such events because the gains or losses do not reflect our underlying financial results in the period incurred. We believe that it is appropriate to exclude these from our non-GAAP results as they are not reflective of ongoing operating results. Segment and Geographical Information The following tables present segment results for the three months ended April 4, 2021 for revenue, gross margin, and adjusted EBITDA, each as reviewed by the CODM, and their reconciliation to our condensed consolidated results under U.S. GAAP, as well as information about significant customers and revenue by geography based on the destination of the shipments, and property, plant and equipment, net by segment.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("United States" or "U.S.," and such accounting principles, "U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information, and include the accounts of SunPower, all of our subsidiaries and special purpose entities, as appropriate under U.S. GAAP. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial information included herein is unaudited, and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of our management, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. The January 3, 2021 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from SunPower’s audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 22, 2021, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in SunPower's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2021. The operating results for the three months ended April 4, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for fiscal year 2021, or for any other future period. |
Fiscal Periods | We have a 52-to-53-week fiscal year that ends on the Sunday closest to December 31. Accordingly, every fifth or sixth year will be a 53-week fiscal year. The current fiscal year, fiscal 2021, is a 52-week fiscal year, while fiscal year 2020 was a 53-week fiscal year. The first quarter of fiscal 2021 ended on April 4, 2021, while the first quarter of fiscal 2020 ended on March 29, 2020. |
Management Estimates | Management Estimates The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates in these condensed consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, specifically the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, standalone selling price of performance obligations, and variable consideration; credit losses, including estimating macroeconomic factors affecting historical recovery rate of receivables; inventory and project asset write-downs; long-lived asset impairment, specifically estimates for valuation assumptions including discount rates and future cash flows; fair value of investments, including equity investments for which we apply the fair value option and other financial instruments; valuation of contingencies such as accrued warranty; the incremental borrowing rate used in discounting of lease liabilities; the fair value of indemnities provided to customers and other parties; and income taxes and tax valuation allowances. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. |
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards and Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted | Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes , which simplifies the accounting for income taxes, eliminates certain exceptions within ASC 740, Income Taxes , and clarifies certain aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. Most amendments within the standard are required to be applied on a prospective basis, while certain amendments must be applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. We adopted the ASU during the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope . The ASU is an update to ASU 2020-04 issued by the FASB in March 2020 and is intended to clarify the scope of ASC 848 to include derivatives that are affected by a change in the interest rate used for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that do not also reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform. This guidance is effective immediately upon issuance on January 7, 2021. We adopted the ASU during the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The adoption did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)—Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The amendment reduces the number of accounting models used for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock, which results in fewer embedded conversion features separately recognized from the host contracts. ASU 2020-06 is effective no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2022. Early adoption is permitted no earlier than the first quarter of fiscal 2021, and the ASU should be applied retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the provisions of ASU 2020-06 on our financial statements and disclosures. |
