REC Group Unveils the Alpha Series at Intersolar Europe – The World’s Highest Power 60-cell Solar Panel

REC Group, the leading European brand for solar photovoltaic panels, unveiled on day 1 of Intersolar Europe a ground-breaking new solar panel. The REC Alpha Series delivers industry-beating power of up to 380 watt-peak (Wp), making this the world’s most powerful 60-cell solar panel. Based on proprietary panel design with revolutionary cell technology, the new product is already acknowledged by a granted design patent.

CEO Steve O’Neil is thrilled with the Alpha: “At REC, it is the next generation which matters. And we trust in the power of next-generation technology. The Alpha is a completely fresh take on solar power generation. It opens up a big power gap beyond what is commercially available today. By offering such a high value solar panel, REC is again setting new trends, and creating a ‘win-win-win’ opportunity for REC, our partners and solar professionals, as well as home owners and business who want to make a difference for the next generation.”

Emerging from REC’s leadership in half-cut cell technology, the Alpha is built around 120 half-cut heterojunction cells (HJT) and advanced connection technology, designed by engineering experts from Germanyand Singapore. With HJT, REC combines the benefits of crystalline silicon solar cells with those of thin film technologies for much higher efficiency and energy yield, even at higher temperatures. The Alpha features alsoREC’s pioneering and award-winning ‘Twin Panel’ design for better performance in shaded conditions and REC’s unique thin frame design which allows the Alpha to withstand snow loads of 7000Pa.

The Alpha delivers the world’s best power density on a 60-cell module, a key consideration when space is tight – like on any rooftop. With the REC Alpha Series, customers will get over 20 percent more power from the same area and the same number of panels – or, put other way, the same energy output from less space. This reduces the Balance of System (BoS) costs.
