Highlights
The company behind Solar’s Most Trusted
REC is a solar panel manufacturer, trusted for almost three decades. Since their founding in 1996, REC has gone from industry pioneer to thought leader and front-running innovator, resulting to a leading solar brand with a history and a future!
Winner of multiple third-party awards
Awards and accreditations are nice, especially when they’re from independent expert juries, highly-respected organizations, and solar installers! REC is proud to have amassed several over the years for our product innovations, manufacturing innovation, after-sales service, sustainability, and quality. Innovation is in our DNA; global energy transitions cannot progress without new means and technology leaps. REC is proud to be a true innovator in solar technology.
Leading technology that delivers more power to more people in more places
REC has introduced a series of game-changing solar panel innovations, evidenced by multiple legitimate third-party awards, including being the only solar brand with three Intersolar Awards. REC continuously inspires the industry with its progressions in panel technology, including mastering HJT – the solar technology of the future, already at REC today.
Mastering HJT: The solar technology of the future, already at REC today
REC Alpha, solar panels based on Heterojunction technology (HJT), launched in 2019. With it, REC leapfrogged other brands and manufacturers, spearheading the drive towards more: more innovation, more environmental good, more power. The long-term reliability of HJT is supported by the power warranty of REC Alpha panels, which promises at least 92% of nameplate power in year 25. This enables consumers to keep and generate more power over their solar system’s lifetime.
What is the REC Alpha Series?
Building on the foundations of REC’s long experience with with half-cut cell technology and n-type monocrystalline cells, and applying these to cells with heterojunction cell technology (HJT), REC Alpha solar panels have proven to be a ground-breaking development in high efficiency photovoltaic technology (fig. 1), and this has now been taken to the next generation by the REC Alpha Pure Series.
What are the benefits of REC’s advanced connection technology?
One key advantage of the the advanced cell connection technology used in REC Alpha panels is that the number of manufacturing process steps is far fewer than used to make conventional cells. Reducing the number of process steps, reduces the opportunity for introducing defects into the panel. In addition to this, the cell production stage of the REC Alpha requires relatively low temperatures of ~200°C compared to conventional cells where temperatures up to 800°C or more are required.
What advantages does REC’s frame design offer?
REC Alpha panels are tested to withstand 7000 Pa snow load and up to 4000 Pa wind load and feature an innovative 30 mm frame design. With support bars on the rear to ensure stability and durability, this reinforcement provided from underneath prevents the glass layer from bending as far under heavy load, protecting the cells from any extreme deflection.
