REC is exhibiting at Intersolar 2014, the world’s largest trade show for the solar industry. Opening its doors on June 4 at the Munich Trade Fair Centre, REC is showcasing its consistent focus on quality through its entire solar value chain. This begins with wafers, and extends to solar panels that are independently tested to perform superbly even in the most demanding conditions, complemented by REC-certified installers to ensure the best possible performance.

With demand on quality requirements continuously increasing, the ability of solar panels to maintain performance, even in the most challenging climates, is an essential product feature.

“REC is leading the way in demonstrating product quality with its comprehensive reliability and durability program where actual power degradation and energy yield measures show outstanding field performance well above industry norms,” said Cemil Seber, director product marketing and global expansion, REC.

Recently for example, independent tests carried out by the Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS) show REC’s solar panels have excellent resistance to degradation. “This is supported by our world leading product claims rate where out of more than 3 million panels produced yearly, less than 300 are returned due to defects,” added Seber.

REC’s focus on long-term performance and quality is reflected in its strong financial position, better than many of its peers on the market.

“The fact that REC is performing so well financially reflects our commitment to delivering high-quality, long-lasting products,” said Luc Graré, senior vice president sales and marketing, REC. “We are expanding our production capacity to meet rising demand for REC solar panels worldwide.”
