Solar Electric Systems

Renewable Energy Corporation's (REC) AE-US Series modules are the perfect choice for building solar systems that combine long lasting product quality with reliable power output. The AE-Series cells are surface treated to increase efficiency. Acidic-etched cells give an even coloring and esthetically pleasing appearance to the modules. REC combines high quality design and manufacturing standards to produce high-performance solar modules with uncompromising quality.

Features:

25 YEAR POWER OUTPUT GUARANTEE

• Customers guaranteed of 25 years of stable high power production
• A Fraunhofer Institute study concluded REC modules outperform the modules of leading Chinese and European competitors
• Best in class by Photon's warranty test March 2010

ROBUST AND DURABLE DESIGN

• Designed to withstand heavy load and wind, certified for:
  • Mechanical load 5400 Pa (Europe, APAC)
  • Design load 3600 Pa (North America)
• Frame designed to prevent frost damages
• 63 months limited product warranty

ENERGY PAYBACK TIME OF ONE YEAR

• Environmentally-responsible product
• Proven Fluidized Bed Reactor (FBR) process, producing silicone with energy savings up to 80-90%
• Further lowering energy payback time due to: ingot crystallization, thinner wafers, increased cell and module efficiency

OPTIMIZED FOR ALL SUNLIGHT CONDITIONS

• Unique glass etching by Sunarc Technology improves the power output of the module
• The glass etching improves the power output during low light conditions and diffuse light -- i.e. sunrise, and cloudy weather
• Cell surface with acidic etched texturization gives better power performance

EASY TO INSTALL

• Fast and easy to unpack the modules
  • 18 kg (40 lbs) - one man module
• Cable length tailor-made for the module size

• Grounding points in every corner to reduce safety ground wire needed

US-PRODUCED SILICONE

• REC modules qualify for ARRA and BAA funds
• REC is the #1 producer of polysilicon for solar applications
• More than 750 employees staff two plants in the United States
