REC Solar Panels
REC Group is an international pioneering solar energy company dedicated to empowering consumers with clean, affordable solar power in order to facilitate global energy transitions. Committed to quality and innovation, REC offers photovoltaic modules with leading high quality, backed by an exceptional low warranty claims rate of less than 100ppm. Founded in Norway in 1996, REC employs 2,000 people and has an annual solar panel capacity of 1.8 GW. With over 10 GW installed worldwide, REC is empowering more than 16 million people with clean solar energy. REC Group is a Bluestar Elkem company with headquarters in Norway, operational headquarters in Singapore, and regional bases in North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
PURE POWER FROM REC
With up to 330 Wp in a 60-cell panel, the REC N-Peak Series uses the most efficient cell technology in the industry, capturing more sunlight thereby providing more power. The panel features the innovative REC ‘Twin’ cell layout design, where the panel is split into two twin sections, also enabling continued energy production, even when partially shaded.
ZERO LID:
The loss of power generation capacity experienced by a standard solar panel on its first exposure to light is known as Light Induced Degradation (LID). This is a result of the combination of boron and oxygen inside a cell and causes a permanent drop in a standard panel’s maximum power. Not with the REC N-Peak Series, however!
The n-type technology in REC’s N-Peak cells stops these two elements from mixing at any level, thereby fully preventing any occurrence of LID. Thus, the panel’s power remains the same as when it left the REC factory – meaning you always get exactly the power levels that you paid for.
SUPER-STRONG FRAME DESIGN:
The REC N-Peak Series has extra support bars across the rear of the panel, greatly boosting its strength and durability, and allowing loads of up to 7000 Pa – far exceeding the 5400 offered by conventional panels. This added strength enables you to achieve much higher energy yields. Combined with a 30 mm frame height, this frame design enables flexible installation options, making overcoming every obstacle easier during system design.
Based on high efficiency monocrystalline cell technology, the REC
N-Peak boosts panel efficiency through n-type and PERT technologies:
• With n-type cell technology, the internal construction of a cell
reduces Light Induced Degradation (LID) to zero, meaning no
power loss right after installation
• PERT technology completely passivates the rear of the cell for
increased electron capture and high and stabilized efficiency
• Class-leading temperature performance keeps panels cooler
for increased efficiency and higher yields
• All round higher yields at higher wavelengths, with strong
performance from dawn through to dusk
Combining n-type and PERT technology in the REC N-Peak Series has
created a high efficency and powerful solar panel, that helps you make
the most of every installation, especially where space is limited.
